1. What cookies are
Cookies and similar storage are small pieces of data a site stores in your browser. They are used to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and measure how the service is used.

3. Third parties
Merki does not use third-party cookies. If that changes, the provider will be listed here before it is engaged.
