How do cookies work?

A website's cookies store information on your computer or mobile device, which is sent back to that website each time you visit. Sometimes this information is essential to access a website's functions - for example if you need to log in, register for a seminar or apply for jobs, a cookie will allow the website to recognise your log-in details.

Cookies can also be used to build a profile of your activity on a website - which pages you visit, how long you spend on each page. A website may then use this information to tailor the pages that you see when you visit the site in the future.
