A cookie is a small, simple file that is sent along with a website's pages and stored on your computer's hard drive by your browser (such as Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari, etc.). Information is stored in these files, which are then sent back to the server upon subsequent visits to the website. Cookies do not harm your computer.
Cookies can have different functions. Based on these functions, cookies can be categorized into four types: functional cookies, analytical cookies, performance cookies, and profiling cookies. See the table below for an explanation of each type.
These are cookies essential for the website to function correctly. Functional cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic features like page navigation and access to secure website areas. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
In addition to different types of cookies, cookies can be placed by different parties. To clarify who places the cookies, they are classified as first-party, second-party, and third-party cookies. Read below for a more detailed explanation.

Second-party cookies are similar to first-party cookies, except the data is shared with a second party with whom a processing agreement exists. You will not notice any difference.
Cookies placed by a company not directly involved with the website, such as Facebook, which allows easy sharing of articles. These cookies are not used by us.
If you have changed your cookie consent settings, previously installed cookies may still be active on your computer. To fully disable these, you can adjust your browser settings (Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox).
