2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website.

7. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Since we do not use tracking or analytics cookies, DNT signals do not affect our cookie usage.
