I’m a bit confused. I thought cookies were mainly for tracking, but I can't remember if they directly lead to targeted campaigns like option C suggests.

I practiced a similar question where they talked about analyzing web logs. I feel like option B might be the right choice since it mentions analyzing product visits.

I think option C sounds familiar. I recall something about creating behavioral profiles for targeted marketing, but I’m not 100% confident.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. Marketers use the data from cookies to analyze user behavior and preferences, then create targeted marketing campaigns based on those insights. Option C seems to capture that well.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know cookies are used to collect data, but I'm not totally clear on the specific ways marketers leverage that information. I'll need to think through the options carefully.
