This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy, which provides more information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their sites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and gather analytical information about site usage and effectiveness.
Cookies typically contain two pieces of information: a site name and a unique user ID. When you visit a website again, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser and remember information about your preferences or past actions.

Third-party cookies are set by external services that we use on our website, such as analytics providers, payment processors, and advertising networks. These cookies help us understand how you use our site and deliver relevant advertising.

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked.

If a standard for responding to Do Not Track signals is established in the future, we will reassess our policy.
