They are generated when you visit a website, aiding in tracking your interactions within the site, facilitating seamless navigation, remembering your login credentials, theme preferences, and other customization settings.

Cookies serve various purposes such as enabling specific features (e.g., logging in), analyzing site usage (e.g., analytics), storing user preferences (e.g., timezone, notification settings), and personalizing content (e.g., advertising, language). Cookies set by the visited website are termed "first-party cookies," primarily tracking your activity on that particular site.
