This cookie doesn’t contain historical information for previous sources. It’s the way Google Analytics attributes visit information, such as transactions and conversions to a traffic source. Being a persistent cookie means it expires in 6 months. The only way to refresh it is to change the traffic source.

Also, this cookie stores information on the number of visits they’ve made. The -utma cookie can last for up to 2 years. However, you can customize the expiration time in the tracking code.

-utmb

-utmb is a type of cookie that tells Google Analytics whether a visit has timed out and also how far the visit went. It also stores information of the start time of the visitor’s current visit as well as the number of page views in the current visit. This persistent cookie expires in less than an hour. But, each page visit refreshes it.

-utmc
