What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third parties whose services appear on the website (third-party cookies).

Cookies can be classified as session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect information about pages visited, time spent on the site, and how visitors arrived at our website.

Managing Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences in several ways.

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these options in your browser’s privacy or security settings. Browser settings allow you to view cookies stored on your device, delete some or all cookies, block all cookies or certain types of cookies, and set preferences for specific websites.
