Thanks to cookies, the site remembers the user's actions and preferences (such as sign-in details, preferred language, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not have to be indicated again when the user returns to the site or navigates from one page to another. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform digital authentication, session tracking, and storage of information regarding users’ activities when accessing a site and may also contain a unique identification code that tracks a user’s navigation within the site itself for statistical or advertising purposes.
