1.         WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a web page. A cookie usually contains the name of the website of origin, its duration (i.e. the length of time the cookie will remain on your device) and a value (which is usually a randomly generated unique number). The information collected does not identify the user, only the computer used.

The use of this type of technology is common practice, it does not harm the users’ equipment and the different browsers allow each user to have the possibility of refusing its use and/or to proceed with the deletion of those that have already been stored.

2.         WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR?
