Cookie Policy

A Cookie Policy is a legal document that explains how a website or online service uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect and store information about its users’ browsing activities and preferences. Cookies are small text files that are placed on a user’s device by a website to remember the user’s settings, preferences, or login credentials, or to track the user’s behavior across different pages or sessions. A Cookie Policy typically describes the types of cookies used by the website, such as session cookies, persistent cookies, or third-party cookies, as well as the purposes for which the cookies are used, such as personalizing content, analyzing traffic, or serving targeted advertisements. The policy also informs users about their choices and rights regarding cookies, such as the ability to disable or delete cookies through their browser settings, or to opt-out of certain types of tracking. The purpose of a Cookie Policy is to provide transparency and obtain informed consent from users regarding the use of cookies, and to comply with applicable laws and regulations, such as the EU Cookie Law or the CCPA. Cookie Policies are often linked to a website’s Privacy Policy, and may be presented as a pop-up or banner that users must acknowledge or accept before accessing the website.
