What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember preferences, measure performance, and maintain security.
We also use similar technologies (pixels, tags, local storage, server logs). For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies” in this policy.
Cookies We Use on This Site
Based on our current setup, we use cookies/technologies from:
A) Google Analytics 4 (GA4)
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the Site (e.g., pages visited, time spent, interactions). This helps us improve content and performance.

- Referring source (how you arrived at the Site)
We use GA4 for analytics/performance purposes.
