When enabled, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors interact with our website. This service may set cookies on your device for tracking and analytics purposes.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |

| _ga | Distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Persists session state | 2 years |
3. What Data Is Collected
Google Analytics collects:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page
- Traffic sources (how you found our website)
- Device and browser information
- Approximate geographic location (country/city level)
- User interactions (clicks, scrolls, form submissions)
Note: Sensitive information such as passwords, credit card numbers, and personal identifiers are automatically masked by Google Analytics.
4. Managing Your Privacy Preferences
You can manage your privacy preferences in several ways:
Through Our Website
When you first visit our website, you'll see a privacy preferences banner where you can accept analytics services, reject optional services, or customize your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time using the "Manage Cookies" button or by clearing your browser data.
Through Your Browser
Most web browsers allow you to clear localStorage and other client-side data through their settings. You can also use private/incognito browsing to avoid storing preferences. Here are links to instructions for managing browser storage in common browsers:
