A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer by a website that you visit. That text file contains some information about your interaction with that site. A single website may put several cookies on your computer, that all are used to "remember" certain things about you. Some good examples of how cookies are used by websites would be to keep track of items you have placed in a shopping cart, or remember your login name, or to know that you've been exposed to a certain advertisement.

Cookies are small files saved on your computer by various websites that you visit. They contain information such as user details, passwords and preferences. When you re-visit the site, the information is read and the site can perform certain actions such as logging you in automatically, setting the background colour to whatever you set in your profile, or whatever.
