Definition and Function of Cookies
Cookies are pieces of information stored in a user’s web browser to track their previous activity and remember certain data for their next visit. These may also be referred to as web beacons, pixels, bugs, trackers, but for the purposes of these policies, they will be understood only as cookies.
They typically store technical data, usage statistics, profile customization, links to social networks, personal preference management, among other functions. The goal is to adapt the website to the user’s needs and settings, thereby improving the browsing experience. Not accepting cookies could hinder the service that the website aims to provide.
Cookies are not virus files, spam, trojans, worms, spyware, or advertising programming, either static on the page or in pop-up format.
The stored information refers to the browser (Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc.) and not the user. To confirm this, you can enter the same website domain and check in two different browsers to see if you can configure different preferences in each.
