and understand traffic and content performance in an aggregated way.

Cookie settings:
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit. They help the site function,
keep it secure, and (if you allow) help us understand how people use our pages.
We may also use similar technologies (such as local storage) for the same purposes described below.
Cookies we use
1) Essential / Functional (Always Active)
These are required for basic site operation and security, such as:
- security and fraud prevention,
- load balancing and performance,
- saving your consent and site preferences.
Because these are necessary to deliver the website, they can’t be turned off through Cookie settings.
2) Analytics / Statistics (Optional)
If you opt in, we use analytics cookies to measure traffic and basic engagement (for example, which articles are most read).
Google Analytics
- We use Google Analytics to understand overall site usage (e.g., popular pages and approximate traffic trends).
- We do not enable advertising features such as Google Signals or ad personalization.
- You can opt out of analytics at any time via Cookie settings.
Your choices
You can manage cookies in three ways:
- Use our Cookie settings button to accept/decline optional cookies:
- Adjust your browser settings to delete or block cookies (this may affect how the site works).
- For Google Analytics, you can also use Google’s browser add-on to opt out (if available for your browser):
Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
California privacy notice (CPRA)
We do not sell personal information. If we ever use services that may be considered “selling” or “sharing”
under California law (for example, certain advertising/retargeting tools), we will:
- label those cookies clearly (e.g., “Marketing”),
- provide an opt-out through Cookie settings,
- and add a dedicated link titled “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.”
Retention
Cookie lifetimes vary by purpose. Essential cookies are kept only as long as needed to operate the site.
Analytics cookies follow the retention settings configured in our analytics tool.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above reflects the latest version.
