Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information about how their site is being used.

How We Use Cookies

Our website uses a consent-based cookie system. No non-essential cookies or tracking scripts are loaded until you provide explicit consent. You are presented with a consent banner on your first visit and can manage your preferences at any time using the cookie settings icon on the bottom-left of the page.

Cookie Categories

We classify cookies and similar technologies into the following categories:

Necessary

Required for the website to function properly. These include session management, security features, and basic functionality. They cannot be disabled.

Examples: Session cookies, CSRF protection

Analytics

Help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve the site.

Examples: Google Analytics, page view tracking, scroll depth measurement

Marketing

Used to track visitors across websites for advertising purposes. They allow us to display relevant ads and measure campaign performance.

Examples: Meta Pixel, Google Ads remarketing tags

Preferences

Allow the website to remember choices you have made (such as your preferred language or region) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

Examples: Language selection, theme settings, layout preferences

Embedded Content

When you allow embedded content, third-party services such as YouTube, Google Maps, or external forms may set their own cookies and track your activity on their platforms.

Examples: YouTube videos, Google Maps, Gravity Forms

How We Store Your Consent

Your cookie preferences are stored in your browser's local storage (not as a cookie itself). The stored data includes:

Your consent choices for each category
The consent version (to detect policy updates)
A timestamp of when consent was given

This data is never sent to our servers. It remains entirely in your browser and is used only to determine which scripts and services to load.

Consent Expiration

Your consent preferences automatically expire after 365 days. When they expire, the consent banner will re-appear and you will be asked to make your choices again. This ensures your preferences remain current and reflects best practices for data protection compliance.

Managing Your Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by:

Clicking the cookie icon (bottom-left corner of every page)
Toggling individual categories on or off in the settings modal
Clicking "Reject All" to disable all non-essential cookies
Clicking "Accept All" to enable all categories

Browser Cookie Controls

In addition to our consent system, most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or alert you when a cookie is being set. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some parts of the website.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. When we make significant changes, the consent version will be updated, which will invalidate previous consent and prompt you to review and accept the new terms.
