Our Services utilize cookies to collect and store specific information. These typically involve pieces of information or code that websites transfer to or access from your computer hard drive or mobile device to store and sometimes track information about you. Cookies and similar technologies are used to manage a range of features and content, store searches, and present personalized content.

Our Services use cookies and similar technologies to distinguish you from other users of our Services. This helps us provide you with a good experience when you browse our site or use our App and allows us to improve our Services.

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies and similar technologies. Still, you can change your browser preferences to prevent this, as your help screen or manual will guide you. We use cookies and other technologies on the basis that they are necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or because using them is in our legitimate interests (where we have considered that these are not overridden by your rights), or where required by law, or where you have consented to their use.

We use cookies to create a unique device ID. We utilize four main types of cookies: strictly necessary cookies, analytical/performance cookies, functionality cookies, and targeting cookies.

We may work with advertising networks that gather information about the content on our Services and on other websites and services you visit. This may result in advertisements through our Services or our advertisements displayed when you visit other websites and services of third parties.

Disabling cookies may affect the performance of the website, and if you disable all cookies, you will be unable to complete purchases on our Services. Further details on changing browser settings to reject cookies are provided on our website. You can also find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them.
