What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, measure traffic, and improve performance. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels.
Strictly necessary
Required for security, login sessions, load balancing, and consent storage. These cannot be switched off in our systems without breaking core features.
Functional
Remember choices such as language, dashboard layout, and form drafts so you do not have to re-enter information.
Analytics
Help us understand how visitors use the site (pages viewed, approximate location, device type). We use aggregated statistics to improve content and speed.
Marketing
Used only if you opt in — to measure ad performance and limit how often you see the same message. We do not sell your data to third parties for their own advertising.
