There are different types of cookies

First party cookies
These are set by the website you’re visiting. And only that website can read them. In addition, a website might use a separate company to analyse how people are using their site. And this separate company will set their own cookie to do this.

Third-party cookies
These are set by someone other than the owner of the website you’re visiting.
Some Zoteken web pages may also contain content from other sites like YouTube, which may set their own cookies. Also, if you share a link to the Zoteken page, the service you share it on (e.g. Facebook) may set a cookie on your browser.

Advertising cookies
Some websites use advertising networks to show you specially targeted adverts when you visit. These networks may also be able to track your browsing across different sites.

Persistent cookies
These are saved on your computer. So they don’t get deleted when you close your browser.
