Cookies are tiny text files that are placed on your computer by websites. Nearly all websites use them. They are not used to personally identify you, but can track your activity. So, for example, a website owner knows they've had a visitor, how long that visitor has spent on their website and on what pages. Some websites use this to target you with advertising which might be of interest to you. We don't.
