What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They serve various purposes such as:

• Enabling essential site functions

In addition to traditional browser cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as server-side event tracking to better understand how users interact with our website in a privacy-conscious way.

We categorize cookies as follows:

• Essential – Required for core site functionality, and cannot be disabled
• Analytics – Help us improve the site through usage insights

Tools We May Use

We may utilize the following tools to help us operate and improve the Site:
