Cookies Policy

Introduction to Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of data that websites store on your browser or device when you visit them. These tiny files help sites remember your preferences, login information, and other details that enhance your browsing experience.

What are Cookies Used For?

We use cookies to ensure our site functions smoothly and securely for all users. Some essential cookies are used immediately upon visiting our platform, while others may be triggered by specific actions or interactions on the website. We strive to balance user convenience with data protection compliance requirements.

Essential Cookies

Some cookies we consider "essential" because they enable core functionalities necessary for navigating our site:

• Authentication tokens: These cookies verify your login status and allow us to secure certain areas of the platform.
• Session management: This cookie helps manage user sessions, preventing unauthorized access or information leakages.
• Anti-forgery token (CSRF protection): We use a special token in this cookie to prevent cross-site request forgery attacks.

These essential cookies usually have short lifespans and expire when you close your browser. They are not related to targeted advertising or tracking purposes but help ensure our site is secure for all users.

Session Cookies

Session cookies temporarily store information about your current session, such as user input (like text entered into forms), login details, or other settings preferences:

• These cookies usually don’t have a specific expiration date, and their lifespan typically ends when the session closes.
• They enable us to maintain interaction continuity across our website without causing performance issues.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies are used for longer periods than session cookies. We store data such as user settings or preferences in these files:

• These might remain even after you close your browser, and their lifespan is determined by the specific use case (e.g., up to 1 year).
• Examples include login credentials that remember you so you don’t have to log in each time.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies are used for remembering user preferences such as:

• Language settings
• Number of items displayed per page
• Customization options like dark mode or font size adjustments
