Simply explained, a cookie is a tracking code that is placed in web-browsers to follow users between websites and target them with ads. First-party cookies are staying put, as they are key to learning user-behavior and helping marketers create a better user experience for the consumer when they visit a website.

However, third-party cookies will be going away. These are the tracking codes that follow users around on the internet and retarget them with ads. Perhaps you are looking on one website at a product, but then decide to go to a different website and while browsing, you eventually see an add for the product you were looking at before. While this has been one of the standard methods for retargeting ads to users, new innovative methods of targeting ads will need to be put in place, as this marks a major shift in the advertising world.
