Cookie Policy

Last updated on

We use cookies and similar technologies on this website to operate the site, maintain security, remember preferences, understand how the website is used, and improve our services. This Cookie Notice explains what cookies and similar technologies are, how we may use them, and the choices available to you.

This notice should be read together with our Privacy Policy and other applicable website terms and notices. Nothing in this notice limits any rights or remedies available to you under applicable law.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files or similar identifiers that may be stored on, or accessed from, your device when you visit a website. They can enable a website to recognize a device, maintain functionality, remember preferences, support security, and provide information about how the website is used.

We may also use technologies that perform functions similar to cookies, including pixels, tags, local storage, and other identifiers. For convenience, we refer to these technologies collectively as “cookies” in this notice.

Cookies may be set by us (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties whose services or content are used on our website (“third-party cookies”).

Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and may support core services such as security, session management, accessibility, navigation, load balancing, and other essential website operations. Because these cookies are necessary for requested functionality or security, they may be used where permitted by applicable law without requiring consent. Disabling or blocking essential cookies may prevent certain parts of the website from functioning correctly.

Analytics cookies (optional)
These cookies and similar technologies may help us understand how visitors use our website, including which pages are viewed, how visitors navigate the site, and whether website features are functioning effectively. We may use this information to measure performance, identify issues, improve the website, and make better decisions about our digital services.

Where analytics technologies process information that can identify or reasonably be associated with an individual, that information will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law. Depending on the technology used, analytics providers may process information such as IP address, device information, browser information, approximate location, pages visited, referral information, and usage events.

We will not treat analytics cookies as essential merely because they are useful to us. Where applicable law requires consent for analytics or other non-essential cookies, we will seek that consent before placing or using those cookies.

Third-party technologies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be provided by third-party service providers that help us operate, secure, analyze, or improve the website.

Third-party providers may process information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own terms and privacy practices, subject to any contractual, legal, and technical controls applicable to our use of their services.

We do not authorize third parties to use information collected through our website for purposes that are prohibited by applicable law or our agreements with those providers. However, third-party services operate independently, and their practices may change over time.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate information about relevant third-party technologies and obtain consent before using non-essential third-party cookies.

Information that cookies may collect

Depending on the cookie or technology involved, information collected may include your device or browser type, operating system, IP address, approximate geographic location, pages visited, links or features interacted with, referring website, timestamps, session information, and other technical or usage information.

Cookies generally do not contain information such as your name or email address unless information is intentionally provided to a website or associated with an existing account or interaction. However, technical or usage information may in some circumstances be capable of being linked with other information and may therefore constitute personal data or personal information under applicable law.

We do not use cookies to intentionally collect sensitive personal information unless there is a lawful basis and appropriate safeguards for doing so.

We may use information obtained through cookies and similar technologies to:

  • operate and maintain the website;
  • protect the website, our systems, users, and information against fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, and security threats;
  • maintain sessions and remember relevant preferences;
  • understand website traffic and usage;
  • monitor website performance and diagnose technical problems;
  • improve website content, functionality, usability, and accessibility;
  • evaluate the effectiveness of our digital services and communications;
  • comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations; and
  • establish, exercise, or defend legal claims where necessary.

We will use cookie-derived information only for legitimate and disclosed purposes consistent with applicable law and our Privacy Policy.

Your choices and controls

Where applicable law requires consent for non-essential cookies, you may accept, reject, or manage those cookies through the cookie controls provided on the website.

You may also control cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, delete, or restrict cookies. You can usually configure your browser to notify you before cookies are placed or to reject certain categories of cookies.

If you previously provided consent for optional cookies, you may withdraw or change that consent where appropriate through the controls made available on the website or through your browser settings.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect website functionality. In particular, disabling essential cookies may cause portions of the website to stop working correctly or behave unexpectedly.

Browser-based “Do Not Track” or similar signals may not be recognized or acted upon by all websites, browsers, or third-party services. Where applicable law requires us to respond to a recognized privacy preference signal, we will do so in accordance with that law.

Where consent is required by applicable law, we will request consent before placing or accessing non-essential cookies on your device.

Your consent, where required, is voluntary and may be withdrawn subject to applicable law. Refusing optional cookies will not prevent you from accessing essential website functionality, although certain optional features may not be available.

Consent records may be retained where reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with applicable legal obligations.

Cookies may be session cookies, which generally expire when your browsing session ends, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period or until they are deleted.

The duration of a particular cookie depends on its purpose and the provider that sets it. Cookie lifetimes may change when we update our website, technologies, service providers, or privacy practices.

International processing

Some of our service providers or technology providers may process information outside the country in which you access our website. Where personal information is transferred or processed across borders, we will take measures required by applicable law to provide appropriate protections for that information.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information processed through our website against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, misuse, or destruction.

However, no website, internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that information transmitted through or collected from the website will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed as a result of circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Privacy and personal information

Information collected through cookies may constitute personal information or personal data depending on the circumstances and applicable law. Our collection, use, disclosure, retention, and protection of personal information are also governed by our Privacy Policy.

Where there is a conflict between this Cookie Notice and a mandatory requirement of applicable privacy or data protection law, the mandatory legal requirement will apply to the extent of the conflict.

Children’s privacy

Our website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.

We do not intentionally use optional analytics cookies to knowingly collect personal information from children where consent or other safeguards are required by law. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us in circumstances where this should not have occurred, please contact us so that we can review and take appropriate action.

Changes to this notice

We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time to reflect changes in our website, technologies, service providers, business practices, legal requirements, or privacy practices.

When we make changes, we will update the “pubDate” shown at the beginning of this notice and publish the revised version on this page. Where required by applicable law, we will also provide additional notice or obtain renewed consent before implementing material changes to non-essential cookie practices.

You should review this notice periodically to remain informed about how we use cookies and similar technologies.

No warranty

The website and its cookie functionality are provided subject to our applicable website terms and policies. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we make no representation or warranty that the website, cookies, or related technologies will be uninterrupted, error-free, completely secure, or available at all times.

Nothing in this notice excludes or limits liability, rights, or obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.
