A “cookie” is a little piece of code that helps a website track your behavior and preferences for a better user experience. You may have noticed that many websites now ask permission to use first-party cookies.
A third-party (or cross-site) cookie sits on your browser tracking your behavior across all websites you visit. It’s an identifier enabling digital publishers to target the advertising that pops up on your screen.
