What cookies do involves storing small text files containing browsing data on your device. They collect information about activities and preferences. Cookie functions include recognizing devices, remembering settings, analyzing usage patterns, and enhancing platform experience. Browsers accept cookies automatically with available control settings.

2. Cookie Segmentation

Cookie segmentation includes Essential segments for required functionality, Functional segments for user preferences, Analytics segments for usage patterns, and Performance segments for speed improvement. Segmentation serves specific operational and experiential purposes. First-party segments originate from us; third-party from external services.

3. Fundamental Cookies

Fundamental cookies are mandatory for platform functionality and cannot be opted out. They facilitate core operations including authentication systems, security measures, session control, and essential navigation. Without fundamental cookies, critical services like user login, account access, and platform security systems would not function. These cookies avoid marketing data gathering.

4. Performance Tracking Cookies

Performance tracking cookies help us understand visitor engagement with our platform. They collect information regarding page visits, source traffic, click patterns, and duration metrics. This anonymous aggregated information improves performance, detects technical issues, and enhances overall experience. Core functionality remains unaffected by performance tracking cookie opt-out.

5. Configuration Cookies

Configuration cookies retain user choices and settings for customized platform interactions. They save information such as language choices, display options, theme selections, and layout customizations. Configuration cookies improve usability by remembering settings between sessions. Disabling configurations may require repeated adjustments and limited personalization.

6. External Module Cookies

External module cookies are set by outside modules embedded in our platform, including analytics providers, ad platforms, and social components. These cookies may track browsing across multiple websites. We do not control external module cookies or practices. Management is possible through browser settings or module-provided opt-out tools. Review module privacy policies for detailed practices.

7. Managing Cookie Permissions

Managing cookie permissions occurs through browser configuration tools. Permission management enables viewing, deleting, and blocking cookie activities. Permissions can be set to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or alert upon cookie placement. Understand that blocking specific cookies may impact platform operations and user experience quality. Browser support resources provide detailed permission management instructions.

8. Cookie Temporal Limits

Cookie temporal limits vary depending on type and function. Session temporal cookies expire upon browser closure and are temporary in nature. Persistent temporal cookies stay on devices for specified timeframes or until user removal, spanning days to years. Essential cookies generally last session durations, while preference and analytics cookies may persist longer for settings memory and long-term pattern tracking.

9. Policy Update Procedures

Policy update procedures permit Cookie Policy updates for technological, legal, or practice reasons. Procedures post updates with new dates on this page. Material updates may be communicated through platform alerts or email. Continued platform use after updates constitutes acceptance. We recommend periodic procedure review.
