    With a first-party (direct) cookie, the relevant website places a cookie with the user who opens the website. First-party cookies have different purposes. One of the purposes is, for example, to remember the login name of the user and to remember items from selected items in a shopping basket.3.2 Third-party cookie
    A third-party cookie ‘follows’ a user over a long period of time over various websites and is thus able to build up a so-called “profile” of a user. These cookies are often used for targeted online advertising. An ad network then places a cookie on a user’s computer, telephone or tablet via a third-party site. This cookie can be read by the network on the various websites that are in the ad network.3.3 Sharing with social media networks
