<h1>Cookies</h1>
Cookies are not, unfortunately, the treats made of dough. They are, in fact, small text files, usually one-line long, which store relevant information about websites visited by a computer. This might include a selected language, or ad preferences. Some websites even use cookies to store passwords that are set to ‘remember’. Thus cookies need a lot of security and the id of each one must be unfathomably difficult to find without permission so that hackers cannot find someone’s cookie. Cookies are stored on the computer, as opposed to the website. Whenever you visit a browser, the browser accesses the relevant cookie and your information is there. Also, whenever a website uses cookies, they must announce the fact and give an option to refuse them, for data privacy/security reasons.

<h1>HTTP</h1>
HTTP is Hypertext Transfer (or Transport) Protocol, the underlying data transfer protocol used on the World Wide Web. It defines what actions web servers and browsers should take in response to commands. For example, when a URL is opened or hyperlink (which is a URL) clicked, your web browser actually sends an HTTP request to the server which hosts the website you're trying to access, in order to fetch it and display it on your screen. Obviously, for each web server to understand these requests, the server and request must both follow this protocol.

<h1>HTTPS</h1>
HTTPS is the secure hypertext transfer protocol, which means that it is a variation on the HTTP protocol - except it uses a secure socket layer (SSL), which is an encryption protocol invoked by an HTTPS request. SSL is essentially the usage of ‘digital passports’, and it functions by ‘hopping onto’ TCP protocols. It does not resend ‘lost’ packets or ‘miscommunicated' data, because this increases security.

<h1>Hyperlinks</h1>
A hyperlink is simply a link on the web to some other resource. It uses a special kind of command that jumps you to some other content in your web browser, usually to another page. 
The way to tell if something is a hyperlink is by seeing if your mouse becomes a pointing hand when hovering over it. It is also usually either displayed as blue underlined text or an image/advert. However, the appearance does not change the function.
Some website owners wish to reserve the right to not be hyperlinked without permission.
Creating a hyperlink in html:
<code>&lt;a href="LINK GOES HERE"&gt;TEXT GOES HERE&lt;/a&gt;</code>
