1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the website owners.

Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language, font size, and other preferences. This can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.

In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar technologies, such as web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"), tracking URLs, or software development kits (SDKs). These are used for similar purposes as cookies and help us track user behavior and compile statistics about website usage. In this policy, we refer to these technologies collectively as "cookies."
