In other words, these are cookies that are set by a website different from the one actually visited.

The duration of the cookies may be limited to a single surfing session on the browser (so-called session cookies), and in this case automatically deleted when the visitor closes the browser; or they may also have a pre-set expiry and, in this case, will remain memorized and active in the user’s browser up to the given expiry date, continuing to gather and transmit information during the various browsing sessions on the browser (so-called long term or permanent cookies).
