Cookie Policy

1. 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 and provide information to website owners.

Cookies can be "session cookies" (temporary, deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies to:

• Remember your cookie consent preferences
• Understand how visitors use our website
• Improve website functionality and user experience
• Analyze website traffic and performance
• Ensure the website functions properly

3. Google Consent Mode v2 Implementation

We implement Google Consent Mode v2 to respect your privacy choices. This system controls how Google tags behave based on your consent choices:

• ad_storage: Controls storage related to advertising
• ad_user_data: Controls sending user data to Google for advertising purposes
• ad_personalization: Controls personalized advertising
• analytics_storage: Controls storage related to analytics

When you make a consent choice through our cookie banner, these consent signals are sent to Google services. If you decline non-necessary cookies, Google tags will operate in a limited, privacy-focused mode.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as:

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal that requests websites not to track your browsing activity. Currently, there is no industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals.

12. Technical Implementation Details

Our website implements Google Consent Mode v2 through JavaScript code that:

• Sets default consent states to "denied" for all consent types before user interaction
• Updates consent states to "granted" or "denied" based on your choices in the cookie banner
• Communicates consent signals to Google services in real-time
• Ensures Google services respect your privacy choices

This implementation ensures that Google tags operate in a privacy-first manner by default, only collecting full data when you explicitly consent.
