Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device when you go offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, as it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
How to Manage Cookies in Different Browsers
- Chrome: Chrome Cookie Settings
- Firefox: Firefox Cookie Settings
- Safari: Safari Cookie Settings
- Edge: Edge Cookie Settings
Do Not Track
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret these signals, our website does not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our business practices. Any changes will become effective when we post the revised policy on this page. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our cookie practices.
