HTTP cookies are small text files that websites may store on your computer via your web browser. Cookies are neccessary for websites to remember information about your session and identity across subsequent requests; if it weren't for cookies, you'd have to log in every time you navigate to a different page! Cookies can also be used for more sinister purposes: building a long-term profile of your browsing behavior across the internet. We respect your privacy, have no interest in tracking your activity or helping some algorithm curate ads to you, and will never allow cookies of the latter type. We do use 1 cookie to keep track of your login status across requests in an effort to improve your experience while visiting.
