The term cookie or more formally known as HTTP cookie refers to a text file that holds important website information. Cookies are automatically transferred to a computer once a link to a website is clicked. While they have the same trait as computer viruses, cookies do not cause malicious software activities to computers or any other device. This packet of data is then kept in a folder inside the web browser to track computer algorithms
The Need for CookiesCookies bear lasting significance in optimizing and scaling websites’ performance. Their main purpose is to compile a device’s history and activity with an objective of providing substantial, interesting, and relevant results. While the use of such puts privacy in question, they are more of an advantage as they fully automate systems for ease of use. For example, individuals do not have to go through a taxing work of filling up a document since cookies determine language, location, and region. In particular, cookies used by GreenWaveX do not solicit personal data or passwords. The website also removes username, email address, and password according to clients’ consent.
