But what are these delicious little cookies doing in your computer? 🍪🤔

Cookies improve your browsing experience and make virtual life easier by saving your preferences or information that allows you to identify yourself without having to re-enter your password.

But then why delete these cookies?

It may be a good idea to delete them from time to time from your browser because it avoids using old forms, makes our applications run more smoothly, and sometimes fixes some bugs 🤗
