Understanding Cookies
Small technologies can support a smoother website experience.
Cookies are commonly used across websites to remember information about a browser, session, device, or interaction. They may help a site function correctly, maintain a shopping session, remember preferences, measure performance, or support other configured tools.
What They Are
Cookies are only one type of website storage technology.
Websites may use several technical methods to recognize a browser, remember settings, understand interactions, or support integrations.
Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of information that a website can ask a browser to store. Some may last only for a browsing session, while others may remain for a longer period depending on their purpose and configuration.
Local storage
A website may use browser storage to retain certain information locally on a device, such as preferences or technical state associated with a feature.
Pixels, tags, and similar tools
Some services use small technical elements or requests that can help measure page activity, understand whether content loaded, or support integrated website services.
Session technologies
Some technical information may be used only while a browser session is active, helping the site maintain continuity from one page or action to another.
Why Technologies May Be Used

Available choices can depend on the website settings, your browser, device, region, and the type of technology involved.
Changing cookie settings can affect how certain features work, particularly when a technology supports an essential or requested function.

Timing set by connected services
Third-party services may define their own cookie durations according to their settings, products, policies, and configurations.
Privacy Signals
Browsers and devices may communicate privacy preferences.
Some browsers, extensions, or devices can send privacy-related signals. The way a website or connected service handles those signals can depend on technology, configuration, region, and applicable requirements.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting. Recognition and response to this signal can vary across websites and services because there is not one universal implementation.
Other browser privacy signals
Certain browsers or extensions may send additional privacy signals. Their effect depends on whether the relevant website technology or service is configured to recognize them.
Consent and preference tools
