Is information compiled only via Cookies?

There may be websites that use other types of storage similar to that of cookies but with additional capacity, such as other types of local data storage on the client’s computer, for example:

  • HTML5 LocalStorage and sessionStorage: Space that the website may use on the user’s computer. Generally deleting the browsing history which may be deleted.
  • The “Local Shared Objects” or “flash cookies” (Silverlight “isolated storage”): These are pieces of data that websites which use Abode Flash may store on a user’s computer. These are stored inside the Microsoft folder where the user profile is located. You have to enter the folder and delete. (For example: Vimeo videos).
    Flash serves to incorporate multimedia elements into a web page, and to that end, stores files in the user’s computer.
  • A web beacon or web bug serves to track a user’s activity, inserting a mini-image which the user does not perceive. When browsing a website, loaded together with the page, and the server where the photo is downloaded, records the access times, or the number of times that the user has accessed the website.

These files are more intrusive than cookies, given that these files are more complicated to delete, store more information, and is a standalone application from the browser used. This type of storage is not used.
