Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
Cookies:
We and third parties may utilize cookies and similar technologies like pixels (also known as clear GIFs) to gather data from your browsing activities. A cookie, being a small text file, is placed on your device by web servers. Its purpose is to store fundamental information and facilitate the recognition of your browser by websites and apps. These cookies serve various functions, including enhancing your interaction with the Services, customizing and personalizing your experience, aiding in analytical assessments of Service usage, preserving your preferences, authenticating your identity, and enabling specific types of advertising. Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or third parties (third-party cookies), and they can be either session cookies (deleted upon closing your browser) or persistent cookies (remaining on your browser or device for an extended period).

Note that some cookies are essential for the Services to operate correctly and cannot be opted out of.
Analytics:
We leverage both in-house tools and third-party web analytics services, such as Google Analytics, utilizing cookies and similar technologies to conduct analytical assessments on the Services. If you wish to prevent Google Analytics from utilizing your data for analytics purposes, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on and do the required.
