Cookies
A cookie is a data bit that sends a message to a website each time you return to it. This allows pages to “remember” previous visits, so they can be customized to the user and their browsing habits. A cookie stores the visit not only on the user’s hard drive, but also on the site operator’s server through data transmission.
Cookies are intended to make it easier for you to view websites on the internet. For example, if the website already knows your login information, you do not have to type in your username and password all over again each time you visit the site. In addition, your surfing habits are stored and passed on to the website operator.
Analytics cookies collect information about your site usage and allow us to improve the functionality of our sites. For example, analytics cookies tell us which are the most frequently visited pages on our site. They also help us record any difficulties you have with the site and show us whether our advertising is effective or not. This enables us to analyze general profiles regarding the use of our site, instead of the behavior of individual users.
