• Cookie is a small amount of information sent by a Web server to a Web browser, saved by the browser, and sent back to the server later.
• response.Cookies collection object can be used to create cookies and send them to the browser.
• request.Cookies collection object can be used to receive cookies from the browser.
• Temporary cookies are stored the browser's memory only so they are valid only with a single browser session.
• Persistent cookies are stored in a file on the browser's local system, so they are valid much longer, until their specified expiration date and time.
