5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to understand how users interact with our site and improve your experience. You can manage cookie settings through your browser.
Website analytics. Our servers log standard request data for every visit — IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, and referring page. We use this first-party data to understand site usage; it is stored on our own systems and is not sold or shared with advertising networks.
Email engagement. If you receive marketing or lead-offer email from us, links in those messages route through our own servers so we can record that the link was clicked, along with the IP address, browser and device used. Our email provider may also record message delivery and opens. Clicking such a link sets a first-party cookie for up to 30 days that associates your visits to our site — and any purchase you make — with the email that brought you here. This data stays on our systems, is retained for a limited period, and is used only to measure what is working. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and opting out is never routed through tracking.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption, secure servers, and access controls.
7. Children's Privacy
Our services are not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
