Apart from that, when you are using online banking, cookies allow the site to remember your identity in order to administer the action requested by you at the online banking platform. If you disallow cookies, the site will not remember your login (the input of the user name and password) and you will have to re-log at each action that practically makes it impossible to use the online banking services.
