Cookie Variations

Cookie variations refer to the different types of cookies used on websites to collect and store information. These include session cookies, which are temporary and erased when you close your browser; persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period to remember preferences; and third-party cookies, placed by external services like advertisers to track your activity across multiple sites. Variations also include secure cookies for encrypted connections and SameSite cookies that restrict cross-site sharing. Understanding these helps users grasp how websites remember settings and track activity, balancing personalized experiences with privacy considerations.
