What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. These cookies are typically set by the website owner (first-party cookies) or by third parties, such as advertising networks and web analytics services (third-party cookies).
Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, are also used for similar purposes. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. Pixels are small image files that can track user behavior. Local storage allows data to be stored on your device for later retrieval, similar to cookies but with potentially larger storage capacity.
These technologies help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our site, and personalize your experience. They are an integral part of the modern web, enabling smoother navigation and more tailored content delivery. We are committed to transparency regarding their use.
