What Are Cookies?
‍
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, or other electronic device) when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies typically contain:
‍
● The name of the website from which the cookie has come
● The "lifetime" of the cookie (how long it will remain on your device)
● A value, usually a randomly generated unique number
‍
Types of Cookies We Use
‍
We use different types of cookies to operate and improve our Services:
‍
Essential Cookies
‍
These cookies are necessary for the Services to function properly and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging into your account, setting your privacy preferences, or filling in forms.

Examples include:
‍

‍
Without these cookies, we cannot provide the Services you have requested.
‍

Examples include:
‍
● Cookies that remember your language preferences
● Cookies that remember your currency selection

Examples include:
‍

If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Third-Party Cookies
‍
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We use various third-party service providers to help operate our Services and may allow these providers to place cookies on your device.

Third-party services we use may include:
‍
● Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics)
● Payment processors
● Customer support platforms
● Marketing and advertising networks
● Security and fraud prevention services
‍
These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we have no control over how they use their cookies. We recommend reviewing their respective policies to understand how they collect and use your information.

How Long Do Cookies Stay on My Device?
‍
The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a "session" cookie or a "persistent" cookie:
‍
Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser or end your session. They help us track your actions during a single browsing session.

Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They help us recognize you when you return to our Services and remember your preferences.

Other Tracking Technologies
‍
In addition to cookies, we may use other tracking technologies:

Web Beacons (Pixels)
‍
Small graphic images (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) that may be included in our Services or emails. Web beacons allow us to count users who have visited specific pages or opened emails and gather related website statistics.

Local Storage
‍
We may use local storage technologies such as HTML5 to store content and preferences. Local storage is similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data.

Device Fingerprinting
‍
We may collect information about your device, including browser type, operating system, IP address, and other technical information to help identify your device and prevent fraud.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

Do Not Track Signals
‍
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked.
