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 operate more efficiently, and to provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and tags. We refer to all of these collectively as "cookies."
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies to operate the Site, remember your preferences (such as your cookie-consent choice), keep the Site secure, and understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. The Site does not use cookies for cross-site advertising.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
- Strictly necessary cookies. Required for the Site to function and to provide services you request. These cannot be switched off in our systems.
- Preference cookies. Remember choices you make, such as whether you have accepted or declined cookies, so we don't ask again on every visit.
- Performance / analytics cookies. Help us understand how the Site is used (for example, which pages are visited) on an aggregated basis. These are only set where permitted by your consent.
