What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a feature of Web browser software
that allows Web servers to recognize the computer used to access
a Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored by
a user's Web browser on the user's hard drive. Cookies can
remember what information a user accesses on one Web page to
simplify subsequent interactions with that Web site by the same
user or to use the information to streamline the user's

trace the paths followed by users to our Web site as they move

online banner advertisements or other such responses to you.
