4. Cookie Consent Mechanism

Our cookie consent mechanism complies with the EU ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC as amended by 2009/136/EC). On your first visit, a consent banner allows you to:

  • Accept all cookies
  • Reject non-essential cookies
  • Customize your preferences by category

Your preferences are stored in the cookie_consent cookie and can be changed at any time. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the Service to function.

6. Managing and Deleting Cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences through our cookie consent settings. You can also control cookies directly through your browser settings:

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies

Note: Disabling strictly necessary cookies (such as Stripe cookies) may impair Service functionality, including the ability to complete payments.

7. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

The Service currently does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) browser signals.

We do honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where required by law (e.g., CCPA/CPRA). A GPC signal is treated as a request to opt out of non-essential cookies and any sale or sharing of personal information.
