Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to recognise your device and store information about your preferences or past actions. We also use browser localStorage — a mechanism that stores data locally in your browser. Unlike session cookies, localStorage data persists after you close your browser until manually cleared.
