Cookies can be "session cookies" that disappear when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies" that stay on your device for a set period. We use both types depending on what functionality we need to provide.

We set retention periods based on what each cookie does. Essential security cookies might last just a few hours, while preference cookies could stay for several months so you don't have to reset your choices every time you visit.

Common third-party services that might set cookies include analytics platforms, content delivery networks, and embedded media players. When you decline non-essential cookies using our tool above, we signal these third parties to respect your preference.
