Veebiküpsised

Veebiküpsised, also known as web cookies, are small text files stored on a user's device by a website. They serve various purposes, including remembering user preferences, tracking user behavior, and enabling website functionalities like shopping carts. There are different types of cookies, such as session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when the browser is closed, and persistent cookies, which remain on the device until they expire or are manually deleted. Third-party cookies are set by domains other than the one being visited, often used for advertising and analytics. Users can manage their cookie preferences through browser settings, but disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some websites. The use of cookies is governed by privacy laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, which requires websites to obtain user consent before storing cookies.
