1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies and browsing data are small pieces of information sent by a website or application and stored in the user’s browser. Through both first-party and third-party cookies, Gizter remembers information about users’ visits, their activity on the website, and their browsing preferences.

Cookies are not viruses or any other type of malicious program or malware that can harm users’ devices. Additionally, cookies do not have the ability to delete or read information from users’ devices. They also have a defined expiration date, which is determined according to the website the user visits.

2. Types of Cookies

User identification or authentication cookies (session-only).
User security cookies.
Media player cookies.
Load-balancing session cookies.
User interface personalization cookies.
Social sharing plug-in cookies.

b) Based on the length of time they remain active

Session cookies: These remain active only for the duration of the user’s session and do not store any data in the user’s browser or on their hard drive. They are used to analyze the user’s browsing activity and provide a better user experience.
