Used by Einstein for AI functionality

The uuid (third-party) and __cq_uuid (first-party) cookies contain a randomly-generated user ID that exists on a shopper's browser and may be used during a visit to any Commerce Cloud website, regardless of the merchant. These cookies are only set or accessed during a site visit if the __cq_dnt cookie, which tracks consent, is not set. The merchant is responsible for obtaining and tracking consent.

Note: Once a value is set for these cookies, it remains until it expires or until the shopper deletes it from the browser. When a shopper visits a Commerce Cloud merchant site where the __cq_dnt cookie is set, these cookies are simply ignored. If a shopper requests that a merchant delete their data, then all data associating that shopper with the cookie value is removed from the merchant's Commerce Cloud instance. The cookies may remain on the shopper's browser, but can no longer be connected to that shopper by that merchant.
