What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files used to collect information about your activities on the Site. They are stored on your computer, tablet, or mobile device by your web browser. Cookies allow us to recognize you on subsequent visits, improving your experience.

First-party vs. third-party cookies

First-party cookies come from the site you are visiting and help that site remember your preferences. Third-party cookies come from other domains (e.g., ad networks, social platforms) and can track your browsing across multiple sites. We do not control third-party cookies; please consult their privacy policies for details.

Session vs. persistent cookies

Session cookies are temporary and deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser and help remember your settings on return visits (e.g., login credentials).

• Functional cookies: Essential for core site functionality (e.g., authentication tokens).
  
  

• Preference cookies: Remember your preferences (e.g., language, region). Deleting them may disrupt site functionality but should not fully block access.

We use Google Analytics (a service by Google Inc.) to analyze site usage. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about your use of the Site, which is usually transferred to and stored on Google servers in the U.S. Your IP address is anonymized where applicable.

Social media plugins

We include social plugins (e.g., Facebook, X). When you visit pages with these plugins, your browser loads content from the social network’s servers, which may set cookies and track your visit. If you are logged into those networks, your visit may be linked to your account. To prevent this, log out of social networks before visiting our Site. See the respective networks’ privacy policies for more information.
