Our Cookie List helps you determine which sites attempt cookie transactions and lets you specify which sites have your permission to do so. JavaScript and Cookies Sites can also set cookies on your computer in a JavaScript script that is part of the page sent to your browser. Our software does not block cookies that are set using JavaScript. If you are monitoring cookie activity using your browser, you might see sites that are not allowed in your Cookie List attempting to set cookies. Even if a cookie is set using JavaScript, the cookie will be stripped from the headers when your browser attempts to send it back to the site that set it.
Browsers typically provide some limited control over cookies.
If you do, then you will probably be overwhelmed dealing with all the requests to place cookies on your computer. We found that these browser-provided controls didn't provide enough control to effectively manage cookies. That way, we can monitor the sites that we explicitly allow to place cookies on our computers and aren't bothered by other sites that try to.
