WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser.

They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.
