Usage of the website
A cookie file is passive and cannot spread computer viruses or other malicious programs. Often they help analyze how the website is used, to improve the user experience. In several cases, cookies may be necessary to provide a service.
Cookies are usually automatically deleted from the browser when it is closed (so-called session cookies). Cookies can also be set with an expiration time, so that data exists for a shorter or longer period (persistent cookies). Persistent cookies are usually stored on the hard disk.
Furthermore, a distinction is usually made between first party cookies and third party cookies. First Party Cookies are set by the page the user visits. Third Party Cookies are set by a third party, which has elements embedded on the page the user visits.
At heimdalsecurity.com we use Google Analytics to analyze how users use the site.

Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required by law, or if third parties process the information on Google's behalf.
Google Analytics allows two types of cookies: a persistent cookie that indicates whether the user is recurrent, where the user comes from, which search engine where used, keywords, etc. Session Cookies, which are used to show when and how long a user is on the site. Session cookies expire after each session, ie when you close your tab or browser. Google does not match your IP address with other data Google holds.
