The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies can be “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiration date, unless deleted before the expiration date; on the other hand, a session cookie will expire at the end of the user’s session, when the browser is closed. Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information obtained and stored through cookies. We use both persistent and session cookies on our website.
