3. Cookies

Our website may use cookies — small text files stored in your browser — for the following limited purposes:

  • Analytics: We use anonymized analytics to understand traffic patterns (e.g., which pages are most popular). No personally identifying data is collected through this process.

We display advertisements served by third-party ad networks, including Google AdSense. These networks may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. This is standard practice across the web.

We do not control the data collection practices of these third-party ad providers. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page.
