What Are Cookies?
Cookies and similar tokens (localStorage, SDK identifiers) let us remember logins, throttle bots, and cache UI preferences. They are not executable programs.
Important Note
We do not run a data brokerage. Marketing pixels fire only after you opt in via the banner; essential cookies still run so accounts stay secure.
