Privacy Flags

One or more of these flags are set in the pdwFlags parameter by the IEnumPrivacyRecords::Next method. The COOKIEACTION flags are set in the LOWORD(low-order word) while the HIWORD(high-order word) is used to set the PRIVACY flags.
When cookies are set or retrieved through script, the HIWORD of the Privacy Flags is zero.
