Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the site. They enable core features such as account authentication, security, network management, and your consent choices. Without these cookies, the site or certain features may not function properly.

Performance cookies

We use performance cookies to collect information about how visitors explore our site (which pages are visited most often, how users navigate between pages, and error messages). This data is aggregated and anonymized to improve site speed, reliability, and the overall user experience.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies enable enhanced features by remembering choices you make (such as language, region, and login information) and providing personalized content. These cookies help us tailor the site to your preferences but can be disabled without making the site unusable.

Targeting and advertising cookies

These cookies are used to deliver relevant content and advertisements, measure ad performance, and limit the number of times you see an ad. They may be placed by us or by third-party advertisers with our permission. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Data retention and security

We retain cookies for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, subject to your consent and applicable law. Essential cookies typically persist for a session or until you log out, while non-essential cookies have defined expiration periods set by the providers. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect cookie data from unauthorized access and ensure data minimization.
