What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit our website. They help us provide you with a better browsing experience by remembering your preferences, enabling certain functionality, and helping us understand how you use our website.

Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. They can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services ("third-party cookies") that we use to enhance our website functionality.

Why We Use Cookies
