Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your browser when you visit a website. Most web pages
contain elements from multiple web domains so when you visit www.edgevana.com (or our other Websites),

enhance your experience by, for example, storing your user preferences and settings. Local Shared
Objects are data files similar to browser cookies, but can store more complex data than simple text. You
