1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owners. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by us) or "third-party" (set by other services we use).
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can choose to block or delete cookies, though this may affect how our site functions for you.
