3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Strictly necessary cookies, which are required for the Website to function, do not require consent and cannot be disabled.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They may be “session” cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. Cookies may be served by us directly (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties whose services are embedded in our Website (“third-party cookies”).
The Consent Banner
When you first visit our Website, a cookie consent banner will appear, allowing you to:
Accept all cookies
Reject all non-essential cookies
Customize your preferences by cookie category (e.g., accept analytics but reject advertising cookies)
Non-essential cookies are not set until you make a choice.
Managing Your Consent
After you have made a choice, a small icon will remain visible on our Website. Clicking this icon opens a panel showing your current consent status for each cookie category, along with options to change or withdraw your consent at any time. This is as easy as giving consent in the first place.
For full transparency, this panel also lets you view the exact details of your consent, including:
Your current consent state
A unique consent ID generated at the time you made your choice
The date and time your consent was given

LinkedIn Insight Tag
We use the LinkedIn Insight Tag, subject to your consent, to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns and to show you relevant ads on LinkedIn’s platform. LinkedIn may associate this information with your LinkedIn account if you are logged in.
You can learn more by reviewing the LinkedIn Privacy Policy and LinkedIn’s Cookie Policy. You can also opt out of LinkedIn’s use of this data for advertising purposes through your LinkedIn account settings.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
In addition to the tools described above, you can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may affect the functionality of our Website.
