How cookies work

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers downloaded to a device (e.g. computer hard disk, telephone) when a user accesses certain websites. Cookies allows a website to recognise the user’s device and help the website remember information regarding your preferences (e.g. the language you selected) so you do not need to repeat selection of your preferences each time you enter the site from a particular device.
