  1. More information on the operation, use and management of   cookies

Also, with your browser you can start a private browsing  so that your system does not store unwanted information on your hard drive.

Moreover,   you can see all the cookies that your browser stores on your hard drive   and, if you wish, delete them one by one. For instance, if you are using Windows 10 operating system and version 11 of the Internet Explorer browser, the   cookies  stored on your hard drive are usually located at the following folder: C: \ Users \ ascl \ AppData \ Local \ Microsoft \ Windows \ INetCache \.
