Our Use of Cookies
Our Privacy Policy outlines our principles for the collection, processing, and storage of your information. This policy specifically explains how we, our partners, and users of our services use cookies and similar technologies, along with the options available for managing them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files stored on your device when websites are loaded in a browser. They help "remember" you and your preferences, enabling features like remaining logged in or saving settings. Cookies can be "session cookies" (used during a single visit) or "persistent cookies" (stored for repeated visits).
Cookies may be set by the site you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third parties, such as analytics or advertising providers ("third-party cookies"). Additionally, tracking technologies like web beacons and pixels may be used in conjunction with cookies to gather usage data. Disabling cookies will restrict some features, but web beacons may still load with limited functionality.
