Cookies are tiny text files that get stored on your device when you visit websites. Think of them like little digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about you - like what you put in your shopping cart, your login status, or your preferences.
They're not viruses or malware or anything scary like that. They can't access your personal files or install software on your computer. They're just small data files that make websites work better.
We use cookies for several reasons, all of which are designed to make your experience on our website better:
Making the Site Work: Some cookies are essential for our website to function properly. These handle things like keeping you logged in, remembering what you've put in contact forms, and making sure the site loads correctly.
Understanding How You Use Our Site: We use analytics cookies to see which pages are popular, how long people stay on the site, and what content is most helpful. This helps us improve the website and create better content.
Remembering Your Preferences: If you adjust settings on our site (like dismissing our cookie notice), we'll use cookies to remember those choices so you don't have to do it every time you visit.
Improving Performance: Some cookies help our website load faster by remembering certain elements and reducing the amount of data that needs to be transferred.
Here are the different categories of cookies you might encounter on our site:
Essential Cookies: These are the cookies that are absolutely necessary for our website to work. They handle things like security, network management, and accessibility. You can't really opt out of these ones if you want to use our website.
Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics to understand how people use our website. These cookies collect information about which pages you visit, how long you stay, and how you navigate around the site. The information is anonymous and helps us make the website better.
Functional Cookies: These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization. For example, they might remember your preferences or keep you logged in between sessions.
Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how our website performs, including things like page load times and error messages. They help us identify and fix technical issues.
Sometimes other companies' cookies might end up on your device when you visit our site. This usually happens when we embed content from other services. Here are the main ones:
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic and user behavior. Google sets cookies to track this information.
Google Fonts: We use Google Fonts to make our website look better. Google might set cookies when loading these fonts.
Video or Social Media Embeds: If we embed videos or social media content, those services might set their own cookies.
These third-party services have their own privacy policies and cookie practices, which we don't control.
Different cookies stick around for different amounts of time:
Session Cookies: These disappear when you close your browser. They're temporary and just help with things during your current visit.
Persistent Cookies: These stay on your device for a set period of time, even after you close your browser. They might last anywhere from a few days to a couple of years, depending on their purpose.
We try to set cookies to last only as long as necessary for their intended purpose.
You have several options for controlling cookies:
Browser Settings: All modern web browsers let you control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these options in your browser's privacy or security settings. You can choose to:
- Block all cookies
- Allow only essential cookies
- Get notified before cookies are set
- Delete existing cookies
Our Cookie Notice: When you first visit our website, you'll see a cookie notice that lets you accept or manage your cookie preferences.
Opt-Out Tools: For analytics cookies, you can use Google's opt-out tools or browser extensions that block tracking cookies.
You're totally free to block cookies if you want to, but here's what might happen:
Site Functionality: Some parts of our website might not work properly. You might not be able to submit forms, stay logged in, or have your preferences remembered.
User Experience: The website might be slower or less personalized. You might see the same notices repeatedly or have to re-enter information.
Analytics: We won't be able to track how you use our website, which makes it harder for us to improve it.
Essential cookies are necessary for basic website functionality, so blocking those might make our site difficult to use.
If you're visiting our website on a mobile device, cookies work similarly to how they do on desktop computers. You can control them through your mobile browser settings, just like you would on a computer.
Some mobile browsers have slightly different interfaces, but the basic cookie controls should still be available.
We might update this cookie policy from time to time, especially if we start using new types of cookies or if laws change. If we make significant changes, we'll let you know by updating the "last updated" date at the top of this page and possibly by showing you a notice on our website.
