Information Gathering and Usage: We collect data through cookies to analyze user trends and optimize site usage, aiming to enhance user experiences. Cookies help maintain your login and preferences over secure areas of our site. You may disable cookies, but this may affect website functionality.

The Functional Roles of Our Cookies

We only use cookies set by the website owner, which are called “first party cookies.” Of those cookies, we only use “essential cookies,” or cookies that are strictly necessary to provide you with the System.

Most of the cookies that we deploy are “session” cookies, which are temporary cookies that expire once you close your browser or your session ends. We also drop “persistent” cookies in limited circumstances, which are cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. As detailed below, we use information from cookies for purposes such as (i) identifying returning users and registrants and (ii) enabling you to move more easily around our System.
