- Cookiesearch for term
- The most common meaning of "Cookie" on the Internet refers to a piece of data sent by a web server to a web browser that the browser software is expected to save and to send back to the server whenever the browser makes additional requests (or visits) from the server. Depending on the type of Cookie used, and the web browsers' settings, the browser may accept or not accept the Cookie. If does accept the Cookie, it may be saved for either a short or a long time.
Cookies may contain data such as login or registration information (i.e. online "shopping cart" information, user preferences, etc.).
When a web server receives a request from a browser that includes a Cookie, the server is able to use the data stored in the Cookie. For example, the server might customize what is sent back to the user, or keep a log of particular users' requests.
Cookies are usually set to expire after a predetermined amount of time, and are usually saved in browser’s memory until the software is closed, at which time they may be saved to disk if their "expire time" has not been reached. Cookies generally are not evasive to the end user; they are used to gather more data about a user and their visits than would be possible without them. In many instances, Cookies can be beneficial to both parties.
