1. Definitions and features of cookies
Cookies and similar technologies are pieces of information that websites and apps send to or read from your devices on your first visit, to be then transmitted back to the same sites or apps on subsequent visits. Thanks to these technologies, websites and apps remember actions and preferences (such as login details, language selection, font sizes, other display settings, etc.) so they do not need to be re-entered when you visit again.
These technologies are used to perform electronic authentications, monitor sessions, and store information about the activities of users accessing a service and may also contain a unique identification code that tracks user navigation within the site for statistical or advertising purposes.

In other words, cookies that are essential for the operation of a site.
