HTTP Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on a user's computer by a web browser.

The server sends cookies to the browser by adding the "Set-Cookie: cookie-name = cookie-value" HTTP header to the response. The browser saves cookies on the user's computer, and then sends them back to the server by adding the "Cookie: saved-cookie" header to the request.
