Cookies policy
First: CONCEPT OF COOKIES
A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the user's computer/smartphone/tablet when accessing certain web pages in order to store and retrieve information about the browsing done from said equipment.
Technically, cookies are arbitrary pieces of data defined by the web server and sent to the browser. The browser sends them back to the server unmodified, thus reflecting a state (memory of previous events) in otherwise state-independent HTTP transactions.
Without cookies, each request for a web page or a component of a web page would be an isolated event, unrelated to all other requests for other pages on the same site. But by returning a cookie to the web server, the browser provides the server with a means to relate the request for the current page to requests for previous pages. In addition to being set by a web server, cookies can also be set by a script in a language such as JavaScript, if it is supported and enabled in the web browser.

The cookie specifications suggest that browsers must support a minimum number of cookies or a minimum amount of memory to store them. Specifically, a browser is expected to be able to store at least 300 cookies of 4 kilobytes each and at least 20 cookies per server or domain.
The server setting the cookie may specify a deletion date, in which case the cookie will be deleted on that date. A shopping site might want to help potential customers by remembering the items in their shopping basket, even if they close the browser without making the purchase and come back later, so that they do not have to search for the products again. In that case, the server would create a cookie with a deletion date according to the wish of the website designer. If no deletion date is defined, the cookie is deleted when the user closes their browser. Therefore, setting a deletion date is a way to make the cookie survive between sessions. For this reason, cookies with a deletion date are called persistent cookies.
