why do websites not remember/save cookies when entered and revisited?

282 viewsOtherTechnology

I don’t believe there is a single website or app that has ever asked me for my cookie settings and then never asked again. This is not down to whether I am using a VPN or not as I have only recently began using one on all devices. Why do I constantly need to re-enter them?

When I say app, it is primarily a link through the Facebook app but a page I have visited before.
