6. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these cookies. Third-party analytics services may use cookies to provide us with information about how users interact with our website.

If you have enabled analytics cookies, the third-party services we use include Google Analytics, which helps us understand website traffic and user behavior. These services have their own privacy policies governing how they use your data.

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Currently, there is no industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, so we do not respond to DNT signals at this time.
