What cookies are
Small files that remember how a page was used
Cookies are small text files stored by a browser when a visitor opens a website. They allow the site to remember choices, keep a session active, or record how pages are used. Similar technologies include local storage and pixel tags.
A cookie does not run code on a visitor device and does not access files beyond its own stored data. On ARZAB, that matters because most pages are guides about games for PC, Mac and Windows. A cookie may help the site recognise a returning reader or keep a form working, but it is not a program and it does not read the rest of your computer.
When a guide mentions Apple silicon compatibility, a Windows-on-Mac tool, or a cross-platform pick, cookies do not change the verdict in that guide. They only record how the page itself behaved on your device, so the site can function and, where used, so readers can be counted in summary form.
