Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognise your device on subsequent visits and remember certain information, such as your preferences or consent choices. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third parties whose content appears on the site ("third-party cookies").
We also use similar technologies such as pixel tags and local storage (including the key salebuying_cookie_consent in your browser's localStorage) that function similarly to cookies.
