1:Third-party cookies：Set whether elements in the web page that aren't from the domain that's in the browser's address bar can set cookies.
2:Cookies
Control the ability to store cookies on the browser.
When both of these options are set to "block",
In Prisma Browser, what you see is as shown in the figure below:

What is the difference between these two functions?

if you visit www.mycompany.com in the backend that page may load content from www.mycontentprovider.com

3rd party cookies are when mycontentprovider.com tries to install a cookie

'cookies' are when mycompany.com tries to install cookies

Regarding the difference between third-party cookies and cookies, I understand that no matter which function is enabled in the Prisma Browser console, the third-party cookies interface will appear grayed out in the Prisma Browser client. If "block third-party cookies" is selected and the interface is grayed out, it makes no difference to the customer？
