Yahoo and Cookies: What You Need to Know About Your Data
Yahoo, like many other websites, uses cookies to provide you with a better experience. But what exactly are cookies and how do they affect your privacy?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your computer. They help websites remember your preferences, such as your language settings or login information. Cookies can also be used to track your browsing activity and personalize your experience.
Yahoo uses cookies for several purposes, including:
- Providing its sites and apps to you
- Authenticating users, applying security measures, and preventing spam and abuse
- Measuring your use of its sites and apps
Yahoo also uses cookies for targeted advertising and content personalization. This means that Yahoo and its partners may collect information about your browsing activity, such as the websites you visit and the ads you click on. This information is then used to show you ads and content that are relevant to your interests.
If you’re concerned about your privacy, you can choose to reject all cookies or customize your cookie settings. You can also find more information about how Yahoo uses your data in its privacy policy.
**Remember:** It’s important to be aware of how websites use cookies and to take steps to protect your privacy. 😉
