Thanks to cookies, the online portal remembers the user’s actions and preferences (such as, for example, login data, chosen language, font size and other display settings, etc.) in order to be shown again when the user returns to visit that online portal or navigate from one page to another. Thus, cookies are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and storage of information about the activities of users who access one and may also contain a unique identification code that allows the user’s navigation to be monitored within the online portal itself for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing an online portal, the user may also receive cookies from online portals or web servers on his computer or mobile device different from those he is visiting (the so-called “third party cookies”). Some operations cannot be performed without the use of cookies, which in some cases are technically necessary for the online portal to function properly.
