Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers or devices offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature, allowing users to signal websites that they do not want their online activities to be tracked. However, as there are currently no unified industry standards for responding to DNT signals, our website and services do not recognize or respond to such signals.
We will continue monitoring developments around DNT technology and may update this policy to reflect any new standards.
Third-Party Cookies
We do not directly set certain cookies used in our services. For instance, we use Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about how users interact with our services to compile reports and optimize functionality. These third-party cookies are intended to enhance your experience while ensuring data anonymity. As these cookies are accessed and controlled by their respective third-party providers, we do not have control over their specific usage.
You can disable or limit third-party cookies through your browser's privacy settings. Disabling these cookies will not affect your ability to use our services but may restrict our ability to analyze performance or optimize advertisements.
