A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on the client
|
||||
computer (your computer) to make the website function better. Some
|
||||
examples of what cookies are used for:
|
||||
|
||||
- Remembering what language the website should be in
|
||||
- Storing your cart when shopping online
|
||||
- Keeping you logged in
|
||||
|
||||
There are also cookies that are not explicitly set by the website
|
||||
owner themselves. These are often introduced when websites include
|
||||
projects which have been made by other people. Some of these
|
||||
include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Disqus - A comment system for your website
|
||||
- Google analytics - To track info about the website (i.e how many times each page has been seen)
|
||||
- Social media (twitter, facebook, etc) - To add in those shiny "like" or "tweet" buttons.
|
||||
|
||||
Cookies like these are stored for pretty much every website you
|
||||
visit and they make the World Wide Web what it is today.
|
||||
|
||||
Since mid 2015 every website which is either hosted in Europe or
|
||||
targets the European market is required to inform and get consent from
|
||||
users about using cookies. This is usually done with a bar at the
|
||||
bottom of the page which can be dismissed with a simple button. More
|
||||
information about the legislation around the cookie law can be found
|
||||
[here](https://wikis.ec.europa.eu/display/WEBGUIDE/04.+Cookies+and+similar+technologies).
