Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for several important reasons:

Cookies help us remember your preferences (for example, language, region, or settings) to provide a smooth, personalized experience.

Improving Website Performance

By collecting aggregated data on site usage, cookies allow us to monitor performance, identify technical issues, and optimize functionality.

Analyzing Visitor Behavior

We use common analytics packages (for example, Google Analytics) to gather non-identifying, aggregated data—such as session duration, page views, and navigation paths—to help improve our content, design, and overall functionality.

Supporting Marketing Initiatives

Some cookies enable us to track affiliate link performance and display personalized offers, supporting our marketing efforts while respecting your privacy.

How We Use Cookies and Tracking Technologies

External Scripts and Resources: Our website uses external resources (such as Google Fonts, CDNs, jQuery, or Bootstrap) to enhance design and performance. These third parties may set their own cookies or track usage according to their privacy policies.

Structured Data & Preload Links: We use structured data (JSON-LD) and preconnect/preload techniques to improve search engine visibility and page load times. While these methods do not set cookies directly, they may be linked to external services that do.
