A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer. For the purpose of this privacy policy, cookies and other data collection technologies (like scripts, plugins, tags, etc.) are called “cookies.” Cookies may be categorized by how long they remain on your device and have expiration dates to determine how long they remain on your browser. We use cookies to help us analyze website traffic, improve our services, and customize content.

You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website.

“Do Not Track” Signals
A Do Not Track (“DNT”) signal is a privacy preference that individuals can set in certain web browsers to provide an individual with the opportunity to opt-out of tracking by website and other online services. Third-party systems that collect this type of information may permit you to opt-out through another method. Our Website responds to DNT signals.
Retention Period
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We may disclose personal information you provide:
- To fulfill the purpose for which you provide it.
- To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request.
- To enforce or apply our Terms of Use.
Or - For any other purpose with your consent.

However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before the withdrawal of our consent nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
