Cookie Categories
We use Strictly Necessary cookies for security and essential functionality. Functional cookies store non-essential preferences. Analytics cookies help measure usage. Marketing cookies support attribution and campaign performance.
Consent Management
Where required by law, non-essential cookies are disabled until you provide consent. Your choices are stored in a consent record and can be updated at any time through the preference controls.
Third-Party Services
Some features may rely on third-party providers for analytics, infrastructure, security, or campaign measurement. We use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd.) for aggregate usage measurement and operate it under Consent Mode v2 with all storage default-denied. Until you grant analytics consent, only anonymous, cookieless pings (no _ga cookie, no user identifiers) are sent so we can see traffic volume, page paths, country, and device class. After you grant analytics consent, the _ga cookie is set and full user-level tracking activates. IP anonymization is always on and ads_data_redaction strips identifiers from ad pings while consent is denied.
Cross-Border Processing
Cookie-related data may be processed in different countries. We apply available safeguards and contractual controls to reduce privacy and transfer risks where required.
Storage Durations
Session cookies expire when your browser session ends. Persistent cookies remain for the durations listed above or until deleted. Duration can vary if legal or technical requirements change.
Withdrawal and Browser Controls
You can withdraw consent at any time from the preference center, clear cookies in your browser, or block selected cookie types via browser settings. Blocking some categories may affect product experience.
