Facts about cookies

What are cookies?

Many websites you visit use cookies. A cookie is a small text file on your computer that contains information such as your personal settings on a website or when the site was last visited. Cookies are written by the website you visit but stored on your own computer. This function allows settings to be saved to provide better service each time you visit the site. It can also be used to distinguish unique visitors. The text file is not harmful to your computer and cannot contain any executable code. The cookie is not readable except when connected to the website that created the cookie.

The term ”third-party cookies” means that the cookie, via the website you visit, comes from a third party. Third-party cookies are used, for example, by measurement companies.

If you want to learn more about cookies and what the law says about them, you can read more on the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority’s (PTS) website under the section ”Questions and answers about cookies for users.”

What are third-party cookies used for?

Third-party cookies are used, among other things, to gather statistics on visitors to a single website.

Can third-party cookies be used to track individuals?

No. The information is saved anonymously, and the cookie communicates via an anonymous, encrypted ID number, which cannot be linked to a computer. The only way to link the information to a computer is if you have access to both the server database and the individual computer.
