Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognize your device, store your preferences, and gather analytical data. Cookies are widely used across the internet to make websites function correctly and to provide information to website owners about how visitors use their sites.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following categories of cookies on our website:

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for our website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take — such as filling in a form or navigating between pages — and do not store any personally identifiable information. Without these cookies, certain parts of the website cannot be provided.

Examples: Session management, security tokens, load balancing.

2. Analytics & Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how they move through the site. All information collected is aggregated and anonymous. We use this data to improve website performance and user experience.

Examples:

• Google Analytics (GA4): Tracks page views, session duration, traffic sources, and user behavior patterns. Data is processed by Google. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google Tag Manager: Manages and deploys marketing and analytics tags on our website without requiring code changes.

3. Marketing & Advertising Cookies

These cookies track your visits to our website and may be used to show you relevant advertisements on other sites or platforms. They help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and limit how often you see the same ad.

Examples:

• Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram Ads): Tracks conversions from Facebook and Instagram ads, optimizes ad delivery, and builds custom audiences. Data is processed by Meta. See Meta's Privacy Policy.
• Google Ads Conversion Tracking: Measures actions taken after clicking Google Ads, such as form submissions or page visits. Data is processed by Google.

4. Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences (e.g., language settings, form auto-fill). They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features may not function correctly.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services we use (such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel). These third parties may combine information they collect from our website with information from other websites you've visited. We do not control these third-party cookies, and their use is governed by the respective third parties' privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services whose cookies are active on your device.

Cookie Durations

Cookies can be either:

• Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. Used for things like keeping you logged in or maintaining your session during a visit.
• Persistent Cookies: Cookies that remain on your device for a set period of time (days, months, or longer) or until manually deleted. Used for recognizing returning visitors and storing preferences across sessions.

How to Manage Cookies

You have several options for controlling how cookies are used on your device:

Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually set your browser to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or alert you when new cookies are being placed. Note that restricting cookies may affect the functionality of websites you visit. Browser-specific instructions:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Apple Safari
• Microsoft Edge

Opt-Out of Analytics

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Opt-Out of Advertising Cookies

You can manage interest-based advertising preferences through:

• Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) — U.S.
• Your Online Choices — Europe
• Your device settings for mobile advertising (iOS: Limit Ad Tracking; Android: Opt Out of Ads Personalization)

Do Not Track

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing not be tracked. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals, as no universally accepted standard for interpreting these signals has been established. We will update this policy if that changes.

Consent

Where required by applicable law (such as the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR), we obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies (analytics, advertising, and functional cookies) on your device. You may withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or using the opt-out tools described above.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent as they are essential for the website to function.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, applicable law, or for other operational reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about our cookie practices.
