What are "cookies"?

Cookies usually contain the name of the website from which they originate, their storage time on the end device and a unique number. They are not used to process or store your personal data. They cannot be used to directly identify you or any other user. They also do not make any configuration changes in the browser or telecommunication devices you use.
