Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences and login status.
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and device identifiers used in mobile applications. This policy covers all such technologies collectively referred to as "cookies".
