2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit a website.

Cookies help websites remember your preferences, understand how you interact with their content, and improve your overall browsing experience.
Cookies are typically categorized by:
- Duration: Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
