1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to the site owner.

Cookies do not typically contain personal information that directly identifies you, but they may contain unique identifiers that allow a website to recognize your browser or device.

Similar technologies — such as pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage — work in the same way as cookies and are also covered by this policy.

2.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect anonymous information about how visitors use our website — such as which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on each page, and whether they encounter errors. This data helps us improve the website's performance and content.

2.3 Functional Cookies
