This policy provides you with information about how we use cookies, what types of cookies we use, and how you can control them.

2. What Are Cookies?

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

Cookies help us improve your experience on our website by, for example, remembering your preferences, understanding how you use our website, and tailoring content to match your interests.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following types of cookies on our website:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Essential cookies include authentication cookies that allow you to log in to your account and maintain your session. These cookies are critical for providing our services and protecting your account security.

Preference Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve our website and your experience.

Marketing Cookies

These cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user.

4. Authentication and Security

Our service uses cookies specifically for authentication purposes. These cookies are essential for:

  • Securely maintaining your login session
  • Protecting your account from unauthorized access
  • Enabling you to access your personal analytics data

If you choose to reject non-essential cookies, you will still be able to use most features of our service, but some functionality may be limited.

Please note that rejecting essential authentication cookies will prevent you from logging in to your account, as these cookies are necessary for secure authentication.
