1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small alphanumeric text files stored on your terminal device (desktop, tablet, or smartphone) when you load websites. Local storage (such as HTML5 localStorage) functions similarly, allowing platforms to retain your interface preferences without transmitting data in HTTP request headers.
