DIFFERENT TYPES OF COOKIES

Websites usually split cookies into 4 different categories. They may sometimes have different names and can be in some instances divided into more categories but the below remain the most common ones.

Essential or Strictly Necessary Cookies

These are the cookies without which visitors cannot use a website. They are essential to the website’s functionality and cannot be disabled by users because the website cannot exist without them.

Performance Cookies 

These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website in order to enhance the website performance. In this way, website owners can adapt the content of their websites more specifically to their visitors’ needs and thereby improve their offer. These cookies also include analytics and customization cookies that track visitors’ activity, so that website owners can better understand how their site is being accessed and used.

Functionality or Preference Cookies 

These cookies allow the website to remember choices visitors make and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes visitors have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that visitors can customise. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and they cannot track visitors’ browsing activity on other websites.

Targeting or advertising cookies

These cookies collect information about visitors’ browsing habits in order to deliver adverts more relevant to them and to their interests. They are also used to limit the number of times a visitor sees an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission.
