A cookie is a piece of test asking permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. If you agree then your browser adds the text in a small file. The purpose of a cookie is to help us analyse web traffic or let us know when you visit a particular site.

ACI uses traffic log cookies to identify what pages are being used and which ones aren’t.
