About Cookies
Cookies are small data files sent from a website and stored in your web browser's memory. They are essential for websites to function seamlessly, as websites inherently do not retain user information from one page to another. However, cookies can also be utilized for tracking user activities within a single website or across multiple websites. This tracking is often for the purpose of gathering user usage data or identifying user preferences and behavior patterns to deliver targeted advertising.
We assure you that the information gathered by cookies on our website is not shared with any third parties.
Our website employs Google Analytics for analyzing its usage. Google Analytics uses cookies, small data files stored on users' computers, to gather statistical and other types of information about how visitors interact with our site. This data, specific to our website, is then utilized to compile reports on website activity. Google is responsible for storing this collected information.
Most web browsers provide options to decline cookies. For instance, in Internet Explorer, you can block all cookies by navigating to “Tools,” then “Internet Options,” followed by “Privacy,” and finally selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector. It's important to note, however, that completely blocking cookies can adversely affect the functionality and user experience of many websites.
Here is an overview of the types of cookies our website employs:
Targeting/Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are specifically designed to follow users across websites. They compile a profile of user browsing habits, which enables both publishers and advertisers to present more relevant advertisements to users. These cookies play a crucial role in customizing advertising content based on the observed preferences and behavior of users.
Analytical Cookies
Analytical cookies, while not essential, are instrumental in collecting valuable insights on website usage. They help identify technical issues, guide improvements in website functionality, and determine which content is most beneficial. In most instances, the data collected by analytical cookies is anonymous. However, some analytics services might collect data that could potentially identify users.
Necessary Cookies
These cookies are vital for the proper functioning of a website. Unlike tracking cookies, necessary cookies do not monitor user behavior and are not shared across different websites. A common use of necessary cookies is for user authentication. For example, when you log into a website, a cookie is saved in your browser containing data that the website uses to recognize you as you navigate to different pages within the site or if you revisit the site. Necessary cookies are also used for functions such as remembering the contents of your shopping cart, storing user preferences, and similar purposes.
