Cookies Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to support core platform functionality, security, and performance. Similar technologies may include local storage and pixel-based analytics.

2. Cookie Categories We Use

• Strictly necessary: session, authentication, security, and core navigation.
• Functional: preferences and interface continuity.
• Analytics/performance: aggregate usage insights to improve editorial UX.

We do not enable non-essential tracking categories where consent is required unless you have opted in.

3. Why We Use Cookies

• Maintain secure sign-in sessions and prevent abuse.
• Remember core preferences and improve performance.
• Measure aggregate page behavior to improve content architecture and navigation quality.

4. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break sign-in or other core features. Where required by law, our consent controls allow you to manage non-essential categories.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some service providers may set cookies on our behalf to support hosting, security, analytics, and media delivery. Their processing is governed by contractual and legal controls.

For example, our hosting provider (Vercel) and reliability tooling (such as Sentry, when enabled) may use strictly necessary or diagnostic technologies to deliver pages and capture anonymized error signals. You can review subprocessors in our Privacy Policy.

6. Updates

We may update this policy as our technology stack or legal obligations evolve. Material updates will be reflected by revising the date at the top of this page.
