What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique
identifier, that is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and that
could be stored on your computer's hard drive.
Each web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits
a web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies
sent to you by other sites.
