What are cookies and how do I manage them on my Samsung Galaxy device?
Cookies are small data fragments transmitted by websites and kept on your computer or mobile gadget. Their main function is to store your login credentials, simplifying access to preferred websites. Additionally, cookies store data such as your search history, improving suggested content and customizing the ads you see.
Managing cookies involves browser settings. You can either permit or block all cookies there. However, if you wish to disable cookies for specific websites, adjustments must be made within those site settings. Keep in mind that certain websites mandate cookie enablement to preserve your preferences, and some may not function without cookies enabled.
