1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit websites. They store information about your visit (such as browser type, device identifiers, navigation behavior, preferences) so that the website can remember you the next time, improve user experience, and measure performance.
Cookies generally do not identify you personally, but when combined with other data, they may relate to your identity.
2. Types / Classification of Cookies
We classify cookies in various ways. Common classifications include:
-
By function / purpose
• Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies: required for the website to operate properly (e.g. session management, navigation, security).

• Functional / Preference Cookies: remember choices you have made (e.g. language, layout, region) to provide enhanced, personalized features.
• Marketing / Advertising Cookies: used to deliver ads more relevant to you, limit number of times you see an ad, or measure ad campaign effectiveness. -
