1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small files, typically letters and numbers, placed on your computer or device by a web server when you access certain websites. Cookies are stored on your computer’s hard drive or other terminal equipment when you browse websites. A web beacon is a technique used on web pages and emails to unobtrusively check that a user has accessed some content. Pixels are pieces of code that deliver third-party cookies, whereas tags are smaller pieces of code to determine events on a website and are used more for analytics than tracking users. They collect data like hits on different pages, views on a product, clicks on a button, video views, etc. All these techniques and other similar techniques are together referred to as “Cookies” in this Cookie Notice.
