What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They let the site remember your actions and preferences (such as login state and settings) over time, so you don’t have to re-enter them each time you return or move between pages. We also use similar technologies — such as pixels, web beacons, and local storage — which we refer to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep the website secure and working as intended.
- Remember your preferences and settings.
- Understand how visitors find and use our site so we can improve it.
- Measure the performance of our marketing and, where permitted, personalize what you see.
Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, filling in forms, or setting your privacy preferences. The site cannot work properly without them, so they do not require consent.
Performance and analytics cookies
These help us understand how visitors interact with our site — which pages are most visited, how people arrive, and whether they encounter errors — so we can improve how it works. The information they collect is aggregated and, where possible, does not directly identify you. We use Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for this purpose.
Functional cookies
These enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering choices you have made. If you do not allow them, some or all of these features may not work correctly.
Advertising and targeting cookies
These may be set through our site by us or our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant messages on other sites. They also help limit how often you see an ad and measure the effectiveness of a campaign. They rely on uniquely identifying your browser and device.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control the setting of these cookies, so we recommend reviewing the relevant third party’s own privacy and cookie policies. Third parties we work with may include:
- Google (Tag Manager & Analytics): measurement and analytics. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
- Stripe: fraud prevention and secure payment processing where checkout is involved. See Stripe’s Privacy Policy.
How long cookies stay on your device
Cookies are either “session” or “persistent.” Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them, and let the site recognize you when you return. The exact lifetime varies by cookie and its purpose.
Managing your cookie preferences
When you first visit our site, our cookie banner lets you accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or choose which categories to allow. You can change your choice at any time by reopening the banner or clearing cookies for our site.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings — most browsers let you view, block, or delete cookies. Please note that if you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site may not function correctly. Guidance for the most common browsers is available in their respective help centers.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. There is not yet a common industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals, so our site does not currently respond to them differently. You can still manage cookies using the controls described above.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
