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 properly, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used.
Cookies can be either "session cookies" which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies" which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
We use "first party cookies" set by us, and "third party cookies" set by services we use, such as Google Analytics.
