What is the definition of a cookie in web terms?

A small piece of data which is stored on the user's computer

Cookies are small pieces of data that a website stores on your computer to remember information about you and your session. When you visit a site, it can set a cookie, and your browser saves it and sends it back with future requests to the same site. This lets the site recognize you, keep you logged in, remember preferences, or track your visits. They can be temporary (session cookies) or persist across visits (persistent cookies). They are not large data backups on cloud, not a network protocol, and not a password vault.
