2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics).
3. Why Do We Use Cookies?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website.
Specifically, we use cookies for the following purposes:
- To enable certain functions of the website
- To provide analytics
- To store your preferences
- To enable advertisements delivery
- To measure and improve the performance of our website
4. Types of Cookies We Use

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site.

We may use HTML5 local storage to store information about your preferences and to personalize our website. Unlike cookies, local storage is not transmitted to the server with every HTTP request.

Similar to local storage but limited to a single browser session. Session storage is deleted when the browser is closed.
7. How to Control Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by:
Browser Controls
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, as it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
Browser manufacturers provide help pages relating to cookie management in their products. Please see below for more information:
- Google Chrome
- Internet Explorer
- Mozilla Firefox

- Safari (Mobile)
- Android Browser

Website Cookie Consent
When you first visit our website, we will ask for your consent to use non-essential cookies. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking on the "Cookie Settings" link in our website footer.
8. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" signals because there is no standardized interpretation for such signals.
9. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy.
