1. About Cookies
Our Sites use cookies and similar technologies, such as pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs, and JavaScript, to enhance user experience, analyze performance and traffic, and deliver personalized advertising. Cookies are small text files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your device when you visit the Site(s). Generally, there are two types of cookies:
- First-party cookies: These come directly from our Site(s) and help us remember your preferences, such as your language choice or other settings.
- Third-party cookies: These cookies are placed by external companies (such as analytics providers and social media platforms) and support our advertising and marketing efforts.
We also use tracking technologies from third parties (our advertising and analytics partners) to understand how you interact with our Site(s):
- Third-party tracking pixels: Small pieces of code from our third-party partners that record which pages you visit, when you visit them, and how long you view them.
- Clear GIFs (Web Beacons): Tiny invisible images in our web pages and emails that tell us when you’ve viewed specific content. These may be operated by us or by third parties.
- JavaScript: We and our third-party partners use JavaScript code that runs in your browser to collect information about how you interact with our Site(s), including which elements you click on, how you move through pages, and how long you spend on different sections of our Site(s).
We will refer to cookies and tracking technologies simply as “Cookies” for the remainder of this Policy.

These cookies are necessary for our Site(s) to work. |
Analytics/ Performance | We allow third parties, like Google Analytics, to use analytics cookies to understand how you use our Sites so we can make them better.
