‍How we use cookies
‍
‍When you access our website, we, or companies we hire to track how our website is used, may place small data files called “cookies” on your computer.

We may send a “session cookie” to your computer when you interact with our website. This type of cookie helps us recognize you if you visit multiple pages on our site during the same session, so that we don’t need to ask you for the same information on each page. Once you log out or close your browser, this cookie expires and no longer has any effect.

We may also use longer-lasting cookies for other purposes, such as storing your preferences to optimize your user experience. You are free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but doing so may interfere with your use of our website.



‍How we protect and store personal information
‍
‍We store and process your personal information on our systems in the US, and we protect it by maintaining physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards. We use safeguards such as firewalls, data encryption, and secure authentication to protect login credentials. Access to personal information is restricted to employees who need it for their work responsibilities and who have received training on handling personal information securely.

‍
- Customize, measure, and improve our services, as well as the content and layout of our website,

We will never use your personal information to share with others. It does not become part of marketing materials unless expressly requested and confirmed in writing or verbally by you.
