What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website (including this website) saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website, including plugins such as YouTube, to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another. It also enables us to analyse how this website is being used.
