A few questions about Amazon cookies?!

    When does Amazon leave a cookie? When a user visits a product page through affiliate link or...?

    For how long does the cookie stay on customers computer?

    If I promote my Amazon affiliate links through traffic exchanges, will the cookie stay on visitors PC?

    If someone else referred an Amazon customer and I send the same customer to Amazon, will it replace the existing cookie (from other webmaster) with my own?

    Cookies are created, when the visitor clicks on your affiliate link and goes to the Amazon.com page. Cookies are valid for 24 hours. You get paid if the visitor orders any item and that item gets shipped from Amazon.com
