    “session” cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your personal computer or mobile
    device when you go offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close
    your web browser.
  2. How We Use Cookies
    We use cookies for the following purposes:
    To Make Our Website Work: Essential cookies are necessary for the Website to
    function correctly. They enable basic functions like page navigation and access to
    secure areas of the Website.
    To Analyze Website Usage: We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors

    number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of

  3. Types of Cookies We Use
    We use both first-party and third-party cookies on our Website:
    First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by the Website itself. They are often
    used to remember your preferences or for basic site functionality.
    Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by domains other than the Website
    you are visiting. This typically occurs when the Website incorporates elements
    from other sites, such as images, social media plugins, or advertising networks.
    For example, Google Analytics sets cookies to help us understand how you use
    the site.
    Specifically, we may use the following categories of cookies:

    works.
    Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the Website to remember choices
    you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and

    the region in which you are currently located.
    Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver
    advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to
