The Cookie Law is a set of government regulations governing the use of cookies by websites. The Cookie Law stipulates that visitors must be clearly and fully informed, via a cookie notice, about which cookies are being used and their purpose.
Cookies are designed to make browsing websites more user-friendly. A cookie allows your shopping cart to remember its contents or saves you from having to re-enter your password every time. Websites can also better tailor their content to your preferences (click behavior) as a visitor. Cookies are therefore primarily used to enhance the website experience and learn from click behavior.
