What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you do not have to re enter them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while others remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.

These cookies are not used to identify you personally, but they may rely on identifiers that help us distinguish between new and returning visitors.
