- Essential cookies keep the site working properly (like remembering your cookie preferences). These can’t be turned off.
- Statistics cookies (mostly from Google Analytics) tell us anonymously which pages people visit and how they found the site, so we know what content is actually useful.
- We don’t sell your data, and these cookies don’t let us see your name, email, or anything personally identifying — just general usage patterns.
You can accept, reject, or customize your cookie preferences at any time using the banner at the bottom of the page, or the detailed settings below.
