Categories serve distinct purposes ensuring operational integrity and experience enhancement. First-party cookies originate from us, while third-party cookies come from external providers.

3. Mandatory Cookies

Mandatory cookies are indispensable for platform functionality and cannot be opted out. They facilitate core operations including user authentication, security implementation, session control, and fundamental navigation. Without mandatory cookies, critical services like login functionality, account access, and security systems would not work. Personal marketing data collection is excluded from their purpose.

4. Activity Analysis Cookies

Activity analysis cookies help us understand visitor engagement with services. They collect information regarding page views, traffic origins, user clicks, and duration data. This anonymous aggregated information improves platform performance, identifies technical issues, and enhances overall experiences. Opting out does not affect core functionality.

5. Preference Storage Cookies

Preference storage cookies retain your choices and configurations for personalized platform experiences. They save information including language selections, display options, theme preferences, and layout customizations. Storage cookies improve usability by preserving preferences between sessions. Disabling preference storage may require resetting choices each visit and limit personalization capabilities.

Outside service cookies are placed by external services on our platform, such as analytics providers, advertising platforms, and social components. These cookies may monitor browsing across various sites. We do not control outside service cookies or operations. Browser settings or service opt-out tools allow management.

Settings can be configured to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify upon cookie setting. Recognize that blocking specific cookies may diminish platform operations and experience quality. Browser help resources offer detailed adjustment guidance.

8. Cookie Lifetime Periods

Cookie lifetime periods vary based on type and function. Session lifetime cookies expire upon browser closure and are temporary in nature. Persistent lifetime cookies remain stored for defined durations or until user deletion, spanning days to years. Essential cookies generally last for sessions, while preference and analytics cookies may endure longer for settings retention and long-term pattern evaluation.
