Cookies are just a small piece of text, not plug-ins or executable files. They can only tell a web server if you have been there before.
We do not use cookies to store your personal information. However, we do use session-cookies to keep track of your login state (as a security precaution and to protect your privacy, if you have not performed a session activity within a couple of minutes you will be logged out).
