Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to site owners about how their site is being used. Similar technologies — such as local storage, pixels, and tags — perform comparable functions, and we refer to all of them here as "cookies."

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies to keep the website functioning correctly, to remember basic preferences, to keep the site secure, and — where enabled — to understand in aggregate how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We do not use cookies to sell your personal information.

3. Categories of Cookies We Use

Category	Purpose	Can it be turned off?
Strictly necessary	Enable core functionality such as page navigation, security, and remembering your cookie choices. The site cannot work properly without them.	No — required for the site to function.
Performance & analytics	Help us understand, in aggregate, which pages are visited and how the site performs, so we can improve it.	Yes — where offered, via cookie controls or your browser.
Functional	Remember choices you make (such as preferences) to give you a more consistent experience.	Yes — via your browser settings.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies may be set by third-party service providers we use, for example to host the website or to provide aggregate analytics. These providers may process limited technical information on our behalf. We do not permit our providers to use this information for their own independent purposes beyond providing their service.

5. How Long Cookies Last

Cookies may be "session" cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain until they expire or you delete them. The lifespan of each cookie depends on its purpose.

6. Managing Your Cookie Choices

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you refuse or remove cookies and notify you when a cookie is set. If you disable strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site may not work as intended. Where we offer an on-site cookie control, you can also adjust your preferences there at any time.

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal. Because there is not yet a common industry standard for interpreting these signals, our website does not currently respond to them differently. We will update this section if that changes.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our practices or applicable laws evolve. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
