Types of Cookies We Use

We use several categories of cookies on our website, each serving different purposes:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, secure areas access, and the ability to use online forms. Without these cookies, the website cannot function correctly, and we cannot offer our services effectively.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have the right to accept all cookies, decline all cookies, or manage your preferences for different cookie categories. Here are the ways you can control cookies:

Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked across websites. Currently, there is no industry standard for handling DNT signals, so our website does not respond to DNT signals at this time. We continue to monitor developments in this area and may update our practices if standards emerge.
