websites, when you add a product to the virtual shopping cart without
finalizing the order, the next time you visit the website, you will be able to
see the same product still in the cart. This is one example of how cookies are
used to remember your preferences. Without the use of cookies, your user
experience on the Platform will be significantly less personalized.
