What are cookies?

A cookie is a data file that websites store on your computer, so they can recognize the computer the next time you visit the website. Cookies are sent back and forth between your browser and a web server and contain information about, for example

  • user preferences

  • how the website is used

A cookie is a passive file and cannot spread computer viruses or other harmful programs. Most often, they help analyze how the website is used so that the web editors can improve the user experience. In several cases, cookies may be necessary to deliver a service.

Cookies are most often automatically deleted from the browser when it is closed (so-called session cookies). However, cookies can also be set with an expiration date, so data exists for a shorter or longer period (persistent cookies). Persistent cookies are typically stored on the hard drive.

In addition, a distinction is normally made between first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set by the page that the user visits. Third-party cookies are set by a third party that has elements embedded on the page that the user visits.

Why does Nemhandelsregistret inform about this?

Cookies are used to collect information about internet users' behavior. Although this most often happens to give the user a better experience or is technically necessary to use a solution, the user must be given information that it is happening and have the opportunity to avoid it happening in the future.

All Danish websites are obligated to inform about which cookies are placed on the user's equipment. The information must be in accordance with the "Executive Order on requirements for information and consent for storage of and access to information in end-users' terminal equipment," which is part of an EU directive on the protection of privacy in electronic communications.
