Cookies and Similar Technologies

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit our website. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, SDKs, and local storage (together, “cookies”).

Who sets cookies?

  • First-party cookies are set by us and enable core site functionality.

  • Third-party cookies may be set by our service providers (for example, analytics and advertising partners) to provide their services. Those providers may act as independent controllers for their cookie data.

Legal basis

  • We use strictly necessary cookies without consent because they are essential to provide the website and the services you request.

  • We use all other cookies (e.g., preferences, analytics, advertising) only with your prior consent. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time via “Cookie Settings” in our site footer.

How we obtain and manage your consent
When you first visit our site (and periodically thereafter), you will see a cookie banner that allows you to allow all, allow selection, or reject all categories. We log your consent choice and re-prompt at reasonable intervals or when there are material changes. You may update your choices at any time through Cookie Settings, which can be found in the lower right corner of the website.

Categories we use

  1. Strictly Necessary – required for core functionality, security, load balancing, and to remember your privacy choices. (No consent required.)

  2. Preferences – remember settings such as language, region, and user choices to enhance your experience.

  3. Analytics – help us understand how visitors use the site (e.g., pages viewed, time on page) so we can improve it. 

  4. Marketing – enable measurement of campaigns and, where applicable, delivery of ads relevant to your interests.

Third-party services
We may use third-party services (for example, website analytics or social media measurement). These providers may process online identifiers, device information, and usage data to provide aggregated statistics or, where you consent, advertising measurement.
