Cookies can only be read by the web server from which they were originally deployed, and they do not allow access to the rest of your computer or any other personal information about you. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
