However, disabling cookies may impair certain functionalities of the site, affecting your overall experience.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.) when you visit a website. They contain data that helps the site recognize you, remember preferences, and support essential functions like user authentication, language options, and performance tracking.
Each cookie typically stores:
- The website’s domain
- A unique identifier
- Expiry date
- Technical specifications
Cookies are broadly classified into:
- First-party cookies: Set directly by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies: Placed by external services embedded in the site (e.g., analytics tools, social media integrations, advertisers).
Categories of Cookies We Use
1. Essential Cookies
These cookies are critical for the website’s core operations. They facilitate actions like logging in, accessing secure sections, managing sessions, and completing transactions. Without them, key functionalities would be unavailable or severely impaired.
2. Analytical Cookies
These cookies gather anonymous data on user interactions — such as page views, session duration, and error reports. The insights help us diagnose performance bottlenecks, streamline load times, and refine the user journey. They may be operated by us or third-party analytics providers.
3. Preference Cookies
Preference cookies personalize your experience by remembering settings like language, region, layout preferences, or display options. This ensures a consistent and tailored interaction with our site. They may be set by us or integrated third-party tools.
4. Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These cookies deliver ads aligned with your interests, cap ad repetitions, and measure campaign effectiveness. They track behavior not only on our site but across partner platforms to enhance targeting precision. We use them to optimize marketing strategies and improve engagement.
Third-Party Integrations
We collaborate with external vendors who embed services on our site, such as video players, social sharing widgets, analytics frameworks, or ad networks. These third parties may deploy their own cookies to enable functionality and, in some cases, monitor cross-site activity.
Though we do not directly manage these third-party cookies, we vet their privacy practices rigorously to ensure compliance with our data protection standards.
Controlling Your Cookie Settings
You retain full control over your cookie preferences. You can adjust or disable cookies anytime via your browser settings. Common options include:
- Blocking all cookies by default
- Receiving prompts before storing cookies
- Manually deleting existing cookies
Note that cookie configurations must be set individually for each device (e.g., smartphone, desktop, tablet) you use to access our site.
While partial cookie restriction is possible, disabling all cookies may hinder site functionality, degrade performance, and limit your access to certain features.
