2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites or applications you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site’s owners. Cookies can be “first-party” (set by us) or “third-party” (set by other domains).

• Functional Cookies: These enable the Service to provide enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences and settings. Disabling these may affect your experience.
• Performance Cookies: These allow us to count visits and traffic sources to measure and improve the performance of our Service. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Service.
• Targeting Cookies: These may be set through our Service by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites.

• Opt-Out Mechanisms: Some third parties provide mechanisms to opt out of their cookies. For example, you can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the [Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on].
• Do Not Track: We do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals as there is no industry standard for compliance.
