Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 1, 2025
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit our website. They help us provide you with a better experience by remembering your preferences and improving site functionality.
Cookies can be "session" cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). We use both types to support core functionality and improve performance.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for various purposes to enhance your experience on our website:
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies on our website. Most browsers allow you to refuse or accept cookies, delete existing cookies, and set preferences for certain websites. You can usually find these options in your browser's settings or preferences menu.
Please note that if you choose to disable cookies, some parts of our website may not function properly, and you may experience reduced functionality.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use a combination of first-party and third-party cookies to operate our website efficiently and improve your experience:
Third‑Party Cookies
Some features may rely on third‑party services that set their own cookies (for example, embedded videos or social media integrations). These third parties are responsible for their cookie practices, which are governed by their respective privacy policies.
Where possible, we limit third‑party cookies to essential services and implement privacy‑preserving settings.
Cookie Consent & Controls
When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a notice explaining our use of cookies. By continuing to use the site after the notice is displayed, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Instructions are typically available in your browser’s help documentation.
Cookie Retention
Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. Retention periods vary depending on the cookie’s purpose and are kept no longer than necessary.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our practices. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
How to Control Cookies in Your Browser
You can manage cookie settings directly in your browser. The following resources provide instructions for popular browsers:
Note: paths may change with browser updates. See your browser’s official documentation for the latest steps.
"Do Not Track" Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity to be tracked. Because there is no industry-standard response to DNT signals, our website may not respond to these signals. We continue to review developments and may update this policy if standards emerge.
Third‑Party Cookie Policies
For more information on third‑party cookies used by embedded services or social platforms, please consult their policies:
These third parties control their own cookie practices. We encourage you to review their policies for details on how they use cookies.
Definitions
First‑party cookies are set by our website. Third‑party cookies are set by a domain other than ours, typically when we embed third‑party services. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their set expiry or deletion.
Opt‑out of Analytics
If we use Google Analytics or similar tools, you can opt out by using your browser’s settings, ad preferences, or official opt‑out add‑ons:
Note that opting out does not mean you will stop seeing content; it means the content may be less tailored.
Regional Notices
GDPR (EEA/UK): Where required, we rely on consent for non‑essential cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings as described above.
CCPA/CPRA (California): You may have the right to opt out of “sharing” for cross‑context behavioral advertising and to limit the use of certain sensitive personal information. Refer to our Privacy Policy for more information on your rights and how to exercise them.
