1. Digital Cookie Information

Digital cookie information describes small files stored on devices during digital platform visits. Information includes browsing activity and preference data. Digital cookies enable device identification, preference storage, usage evaluation, and experience optimization. Most browsers auto-accept with user-controlled settings available.

2. Our Cookie Categories

Our cookie categories encompass Essential categories required for basic operations, Functional categories remembering preferences, Analytics categories measuring usage patterns, and Performance categories enhancing speed. Categories fulfill specific purposes for functionality and experience. First-party categories are ours; third-party categories are external.

3. Essential Function Cookies

Essential function cookies are necessary for platform functioning and cannot be disabled. They power core services including user authentication, security features, session administration, and essential navigation tools. Without essential function cookies, vital services like login functionality, account control, and security measures would fail. Marketing data collection is excluded from their purpose.

4. Site Analytics Cookies

Site analytics cookies help us comprehend visitor platform usage. They gather data about visited pages, traffic origins, clicking patterns, and session times. This aggregated anonymous data optimizes performance, detects technical problems, and enhances user experience. Essential functionality continues without site analytics cookie acceptance.

5. Experience Customization Cookies

Experience customization cookies remember your choices and configurations to provide personalized interactions. They store data like language preferences, display settings, theme choices, and custom layouts. These cookies enhance usability by retaining preferences across visits. Disabling experience customization may necessitate preference resets per session and reduce features.

6. Partner Cookies

Partner cookies are set by third-party partners integrated into our platform, including analytics services, ad networks, and social widgets. These cookies may track user activity across multiple websites. We do not govern partner cookies or their practices. Management occurs through browser settings or partner-provided opt-out mechanisms. Review partner privacy policies for detailed information.

7. Browser Cookie Settings

Browser cookie settings provide management and control capabilities. Settings allow you to view, delete, and block cookies as needed. You can configure preferences to accept all, reject all, or receive alerts when cookies are set. Understand that blocking certain cookies may impact platform operations and user experience. Browser support sections contain comprehensive cookie setting guidance.

8. Cookie Expiration Framework

Cookie expiration framework varies based on type and function. Session expiration cookies expire upon browser closure and are temporary. Persistent expiration cookies remain on devices for specified periods or until user deletion, spanning days to years. Essential cookies typically last for sessions, while preference and analytics cookies may persist longer for settings retention and long-term behavior evaluation.

9. Policy Change Notification
