Cookies can be used to enhance your browsing experience by enabling features such as language preferences, login information, and tracking user behavior.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following types of cookies on our Site:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the operation of our Site. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of the website or complete forms.

4. Cookies Used by Google Analytics (GA) and Google Tag Manager (GTM)

We use Google Analytics (GA) and Google Tag Manager (GTM) to collect and analyze information about how users interact with our Site. These tools help us improve our website’s performance and provide a better user experience.

Google Tag Manager (GTM): GTM is a tag management system that allows us to quickly and easily update measurement codes (like tracking pixels) and related code fragments on our Site. GTM itself does not use cookies, but it allows other tags (such as GA) to use cookies to track visitors and analyze usage.
