Cookies are installed through a web server request to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome). Once installed cookies have a fixed lifetime, remaining “passive” in the sense that they do not contain software, viruses or spyware and will not access the information on the hard drive of the user whose device they have installed.
A cookie consists of two parts:
– the name of the cookie; and

From a technical point of view, only the web server that sent the cookie can access it again when a user returns to the web page associated with that web-server.
