Definitions
Cookies
Data created by a web server that is stored on a user’s computer. A cookie provides a way for the web site to keep track of a user’s patterns and preferences and, with the
cooperation of the Web browser, to store them on the user’s own hard disk. The cookies contain a range of URLs (web addresses) for which they are valid. When
the browser encounters those URLs again, it sends those specific cookies to the Web server. For example, if a user’s ID is stored as a cookie, it saves that person from typing in the same information all over again when accessing that service for the second and subsequent time during the same browser session. You can opt out of the use of cookies by having your browser disable cookies or warn you before accepting a cookie. Look for the cookie options in your browser in the Options or Preferences menu.
IP (Internet Protocol) Address
This is the address of a computer attached to a TCP/IP network. Every client and server station must have a unique IP address. Client workstations have either a permanent address or one that is dynamically assigned for each dial-up session. IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example, 204.171.64.2.
Browser Session
A browser session is defined as: the period of time a browser is in consecutive use. The session begins when you open the browser and ends when you close it. When you re-
open the browser, you begin a new session.
SSL Encryption (Secure Sockets Layer)
The leading security protocol on the Internet. When an SSL session is started, the browser sends its public key to the server so that the server can securely send a secret key to the browser. The browser and server exchange data via secret key encryption during that session. Car Insurance Quote 123 also uses SSL encryption whenever we display your personal information (e.g. name and address).
