Definition of Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies allow us to recognize your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions.
Each cookie is a plain-text record with a name, a value, and an expiration date. The file itself cannot execute code, carry viruses, or read other data on your device. It only holds the specific piece of information the site placed there — for example, a session identifier so your cart stays together while you browse men's vitamin formulas, or a flag that remembers you closed the cookie banner last visit.
