Effective Date: 3rd September 2024

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly and can also provide site owners with insights about how visitors interact with the site. Don’t worry—these cookies don’t give us access to your personal information, and they don’t contain anything that could harm your computer.

How We Use Cookies

On this website, we use cookies to:

Ensure the site works properly: These are the "essential" cookies that help the site run smoothly. For example, they allow pages to load correctly and ensure that the site functions as expected.
Understand how visitors use the site: We use basic analytics tools (through Wix) to see where visitors are coming from, what kind of devices they use, and which pages they spend time on. This helps us improve the site for all of our readers. But don’t worry—this data is anonymous, and we’re not tracking your individual browsing habits.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They include things like enabling navigation or ensuring the security of the site. You can’t disable these, but they don’t store any personally identifiable information.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited most often, what type of device you're using, and where you’re located. This data helps us understand and improve how the site performs. The information is collected in an anonymous way—no personal information like your name or email is tracked.

Third-Party Cookies

Our site uses Wix's built-in analytics, which may set cookies to collect anonymous data. We may also embed content from third-party platforms (e.g., YouTube), which could set cookies on your device when you interact with that content. We encourage you to check the privacy policies of these third-party services for more information about their cookie practices.
