A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you browse the website.
Each time you visit the Commission’s websites, the system asks you whether you accept cookies or not .

This means you don’t have to re-enter the same data each time you visit the website.
Cookies may also be used to compile anonymous statistics about website usage.
