Concept of Cookies
Cookies are a tool used by web servers to store and retrieve information about their visitors or users. It is nothing more than a text file that some servers install during navigation and which allows information to be known, such as: the place from which it is accessed, the time of connection, the device from which it is accessed (fixed or mobile), the operating system and browser used, the most visited pages, the number of clicks made and data regarding the user’s behaviour on the Internet. They do not provide references that allow the user’s name and surname to be deduced and they cannot read data from the user’s hard disk or include viruses in their computers. Likewise, they cannot read the cookies implanted in the user’s hard disk from other servers.
Why are they important?
