What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.
How We Use Cookies

Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation, access to secure areas of the website, and remembering your cookie preferences. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This includes information about which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay on the site, and any error messages they encounter.

Marketing Cookies
These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites.

Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the website and deliver advertisements on and through the website. These third-party services include:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to analyze website traffic and user behavior. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site. This information is used to compile reports and help us improve the website. The cookies collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, where visitors have come to the site from, and the pages they visited.
Social Media Plugins
Our website includes social media features, such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn buttons. These features may collect your IP address and which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies:
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, if you disable cookies, some parts of our website may not function properly.
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in our website footer.
Opt-Out Links
For specific third-party services, you can opt out directly:

Mobile Device Identifiers
When you access our website through a mobile device, we may collect mobile device identifiers, including MAC address, and other information about your mobile device, as well as information about your use of our mobile website. We may use this information to provide you with location-based services, such as advertising, search results, and other personalized content.
Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These features are not yet uniform, and our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" signals.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the "Last Updated" date.
