As clarified by the Privacy Guarantor in its December 2012 FAQs, which can be found at www.garanteprivacy.it, cookies are "small text files" - made up of letters and numbers - "that sites visited by the user send to the user's terminal (usually to the browser), where they are stored in order to be retransmitted to the same sites the next time the same user visits." Cookies have the function of streamlining web traffic analysis or signaling when a specific site or part of a site is visited, distinguishing visitors from each other in order to provide personalized content, and helping administrators to improve the site and users' browsing experience.
