Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their site is being used.

Similar technologies include web beacons (also known as tracking pixels), local storage, and session storage. This policy refers to all of these technologies collectively as “cookies.”

Cookies can be “session cookies” (which expire when you close your browser) or “persistent cookies” (which remain on your device until they expire or are deleted).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

3. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

• Authentication and security — to verify your identity and protect against unauthorized access
• Session management — to maintain your session state across page visits
• Performance monitoring — to measure and improve the speed and reliability of our Service
• Analytics — to understand how users interact with our platform and identify areas for improvement
• Preferences — to remember your settings and provide a personalized experience

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third-party services that we use to operate and improve our platform. These third parties may have access to anonymous usage data in accordance with their own privacy policies.

5. Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit our Service, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are always active as they are required for the Service to function.

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by adjusting your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality and performance of our Service.

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the “Options” or “Preferences” menu of your browser.

6. Managing Cookies

You can manage and control cookies through your browser settings. Below are links to instructions for common browsers:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Safari
• Microsoft Edge

You can also use the “Clear browsing data” feature in most browsers to remove cookies that have already been placed. Note that this may log you out of websites and clear saved preferences.

7. Do Not Track

“Do Not Track” (DNT) is a privacy preference that you can set in your browser to signal that you do not want to be tracked across websites. Currently, our Service does not respond to DNT signals, as there is no consistent standard for how DNT should be interpreted.

If a universal standard for DNT is established, we will update this policy to explain how we handle such signals. In the meantime, you can manage cookies through your browser settings as described above.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the technologies we use. We will notify you of material changes by updating the “Latest Version” date at the top of this page.

Your continued use of our Service after any revisions to this Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
