1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use similar technologies such as local storage for cookie consent preferences.

2. Categories we use

• Essential: required for security, load balancing, and remembering your cookie choice.
• Preferences: store settings you select on the site.
• Analytics: help us understand aggregated traffic patterns (only with consent where required).

3. Microsoft Advertising (UET)

When you accept marketing cookies, we may load the Microsoft UET tag to attribute visits and conversions to ads served on Microsoft properties and partner sites. UET may set or read Microsoft advertising cookies such as _uetsid and _uetvid. For EEA, UK, and Swiss visitors, advertising storage remains disabled until you opt in via our banner. You can withdraw consent anytime through the banner or browser controls.
