2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and gather reporting information about website usage.

Cookies are set by either the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services that the website uses, such as advertising networks and analytics providers (known as "third-party cookies"). Cookies can be stored temporarily for the duration of your browser session (known as "session cookies") or for a longer, predefined period of time (known as "persistent cookies").

Each time you visit our website, the cookies stored on your device may be sent back to us or to the relevant third parties so that we can recognize your device and personalize your experience accordingly.

4.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
