A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server.
Cookies can be…
Persistent |
A persistent cookie for a website exists on a users computer until a future date. For example the cookie expiry date could be set as 1 year, and each time a website is accessed over this period the website could access the cookie. |
Session |
A session cookie for a website only exists whilst the user is reading or navigating the website. When the user closes their web browser these cookies are usually removed. |
Secure Cookie |
A secure cookie can only be used via HTTPS. This ensures the cookie data is encrypted, reducing the expose to cookie theft via eavesdropping. |
Third-party Cookie |
First-party cookies are cookies set with the same domain (or its subdomain) as your browser's address bar, in this case https://justonenorfolk.nhs.uk. Third-party cookies are cookies set with domains different from the one shown on the address bar. The web pages on the first domain may feature content from a third-party domain, e.g. an advert run by NSPCC on a YouTube video. Privacy setting options in most modern browsers allow you to block third-party tracking cookies |
