Which of the following properties are true of "third-party cookies"? They are passed from a browser to any website that requests a list of all of a browser's stored cookies. They provide a mechanism for a website to track a browser's accesses to multiple other websites. Third-party cookies have a different format than first-party cookies that are issued by the website that a user explicitly chooses to visit by typing in the website's URL into a browser. They are explicitly mentioned in new privacy laws such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
