What's a cookie?

above, under CASL, a person is considered to consent to the installation of a cookie if the person's conduct is
such that it is reasonable to believe that they consent.
When you visit a website, not only are you offered information or services, but your computer may also be
offered a “cookie.” A cookie is a small file that is passed from a website to an end user's (your) computer. The
cookie is used to save information about the interaction between you, and the site, such as credentials,
preferences, and any work in progress. The cookie file is automatically stored by your web browser on the local
hard drive, and it can later be retrieved by the website.
Cookies were invented in 1994 so that information could be saved between visits to a website. This lets you
avoid logging in for every visit, and cookies are also used to keep track of preferences, and works in progress
(such as items in an online shopping cart). Today, just about all of the top websites use cookies for one purpose
or another. Cookies are a very useful feature of the web, and, without them, web sessions would have no
history; you would have to enter your information over, and over.
