What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file containing information which is stored on your computer when you visit a website. Cookies can enable the website to remember some of your actions and preferences, so you do not have to re-enter them when you come back to the site or browse from one page to another. One type of cookie, a “permanent cookie”, will save a file on your computer for a long time. It can then be used to customize this website based on your choices and preferences. Another common type of cookie is the “session cookie”. When you visit a website, session cookies are sent between your computer and the server to collect information. As opposed to permanent cookies, session cookies are not saved once you close your web browser. Another type of cookie is a third-party cookie that is connected to other domains than those shown in the address bar. Third-party cookies makes it possible to track visitors’ browsing history.

_hjTLDTest www.hotjar.com | When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname.
