"Please accept cookies to read more”. Does that phrase sound familiar to you?
Have you ever wondered while surfing a new website why a banner pops up asking you to allow cookies?

But first of all, let’s understand what cookies are.

Cookies are tiny data files generated by a web server and sent to a web browser. The cookies that web browsers receive are stored for a predefined amount of time or for the duration of a user session. They attach the necessary cookies to any subsequent web server requests made by the user.
Websites can better tailor the user experience by learning more about the user thanks to cookies.

While accepting cookies would give you access to the remaining information on the website, there’s a lot more that goes behind when you accept these cookies.
In this episode of One Byte at a Time, find out what you should do when a website offers you cookies, and which cookies you should accept rather than accept all of them.

Topics covered:

0:00 - Introduction
1:12 - What are cookies?
2:23 - Types of cookies
5:27 - Google to remove third party cookies?
