Answer from AI
A Cookies file is a small piece of data sent by a web server to a browser to store information about the user.
Main functions of cookies:
- Session storage (e.g., to keep the user logged in).
- Remembering user settings.
- Tracking activity for analytics or advertising.
When the browser makes a request to the server, it automatically sends back the corresponding cookies, allowing the server to identify the user and provide a personalized experience.
