Cookies are small text files sent to the user by a website. They are stored on the computer's hard disk, thus allowing the website to recognize users and store certain information about them, in order to allow or improve the services offered.
Most cookies contain a unique identifier called a cookie ID: a string of characters that websites and servers associate with the browser in which the cookie is stored. This allows websites and servers to distinguish the browser from others that store distinct cookies and to recognize each browser based on its unique cookie ID.
Cookies are widely used by websites and servers to provide many of the basic services available online. When shopping online, a cookie allows the website to remember the items you've added to your virtual shopping cart. When setting preferences on a website, cookies allow the website to store your preferences for your next visit. If you register on a website, it may use a cookie to recognize your browser at a later time, so that you do not need to enter your login credentials again. Furthermore, cookies allow websites to collect data on users' use, such as the number of unique visitors on a page each month. All these uses require information stored in cookies.
Technical cookies are those used only for transmitting a message over an electronic communications network, or when strictly required by the information company service provider to provide this service as explicitly requested by the subscriber or user.
Example of technical cookie : the session cookie installed to save login details.
profiling cookies are aimed at creating user profiles and are used to send advertising < / strong> in line with the preferences shown by the user when browsing the web.
Example of a profiling cookie : we admit that while browsing a site, you search for gym shoes and a cookie is saved on your browser containing this search. If after the search, software / a plugin installed on the site makes use of this information to offer you relevant advertising, such as sports equipment, or shoes in general, then that installed cookie is a profiling cookie.
A further element to consider, for definition purposes, is subjectivity. It is necessary to take into account the different subject that installs cookies on the user's terminal . Depending on whether it is the same website manager that the user is visiting that can be briefly referred to as a publisher or a different site that installs cookies through the first, i.e. third parties.
Example of third-party cookies : cookies installed by social platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, etc., Google Analytics cookies, cookies installed by the implementation of Youtube video IFrames, etc. These are all third-party cookies.
