COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or other electronic device)
when you visit websites. They are widely used to 'remember' you and your preferences, either for a single visit
(through a 'session cookie') or for multiple repeat visits (using a 'persistent cookie'). They ensure a consistent
and efficient experience for visitors and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and
remain logged in.
Types of Cookies We Use
● Session Cookies: These are temporary and only exist for the duration of your visit to our website,
helping our website remember what you chose on the previous page, thus avoiding the need to re-enter
information.
● Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device after you have visited our website, helping us identify
you as a unique visitor but do not contain personal information that others could read and understand.
● Analytics Cookies: These cookies track who visits our site and how they interact with it, which helps us
learn more about where we need to improve.
● Functional Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide
enhanced, more personal features. For example, they could be used for remembering your preferences
and settings on parts of our site that you can customize.
Use of Cookies for Advertising

We may use cookies to show you advertisements for our products and services on other websites. The use of
advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the internet industry. You might see
advertisements for our products and services on other websites if the cookie has identified that you visited our
website. Here’s how it works:
● Third-party Advertisements: We may partner with third-party services that set cookies on our site which
are then used to determine which advertisements to display to you on other websites. This is known as
'behavioral advertising'.
● Ad Network Cookies: Ad networks collect information about your interests when you view or interact
with one of their advertisements. This helps us and advertisers ensure you see more relevant ads and
limit the number of times you see an ad.
Managing Cookies
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability
of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be
personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
Do Not Track
Some browsers include the ability to transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Our websites do not process or respond
to “Do Not Track” signals. Instead, we adhere to the standards described in our privacy policy.
Advertisements
We utilize our website cookies to display targeted advertisements on our site and on other sites you may visit,
based on your browsing history. If you choose to adjust your settings to limit ad tracking, you will still see ads,
but they may not be as relevant to your interests.
