WHAT INFORMATION DOES A COOKIE STORE?

Cookies do not usually store any personal information, such as credit card or bank details, photographs, your ID card, etc. The data they store is of a technical nature, personal preferences, content personalization, etc.

In fact, if you usually browse with Internet Explorer and try to browse the same website with Firefox or Chrome, you will see that the web does not notice you are the same person because it is actually associating the browser, not the person.
