What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that makes it possible to identify visitors to a website. A cookie is stored in your unit (for example smart phone, reading tablet, or computer) and makes it possible for the website to recognize you upon your next visit of the website. Cookies are often categorized based on their origin, but also based on how long they are stored in your web browser. A cookie may either be sent to you from the website you are visiting (so called first-party cookies) or from another organisation providing services to the website, such as analysis and statistics companies (so called third-party cookies).

Cookies can also be categorised as session cookies or persistent cookies. A session cookie is sent to your computer for the webpages to function properly during your visit and is not retained on your computer. Instead it is erased when you close your web browser. The function of a session cookie is for example that it is activated when you return to a previously visited part of the website and thus facilitates your navigation on the website. A persistent cookie is in contrast stored in your web browser and thus allows for a web page to recognise your computer’ s IP address even if you turn off your computer or log out between visits.
