ost websites, regardless of the services they provide, use cookies — small text files or general-use devices downloaded onto a user’s terminal when browsing web pages, designed to store data retrievable by the entity responsible for their installation to improve navigation and user experience.
As stated in Recital 30 of the GDPR, individuals may be linked to online identifiers provided by their devices, applications, tools, and protocols, such as IP addresses, session identifiers in the form of “cookies,” or similar identifiers. These can leave traces that, especially when combined with unique identifiers and other data received by servers, can be used to profile individuals and identify them.

- Technical cookies (e.g., essential for browsing),
- Customization/configuration cookies (e.g., recognizing the user’s language), and
- Security cookies (e.g., detecting repeated login attempts) are exempt.
