4. Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies

4.1 What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently and to provide reporting information to site owners.

4.2 Tracking Tools We Use

We use the following Google services, which may set cookies or use similar tracking technologies on your device:

Google Analytics — Collects data about how visitors use our Website, including which pages are visited, session duration, and traffic sources. This data is aggregated and used to generate reports on Website performance.
Google Tag Manager — A tag management system that allows us to deploy and manage Google Analytics and other tracking scripts on our Website without editing the site code directly. Google Tag Manager itself does not collect personal data, but it facilitates the tools described above.
Google Search Console — Monitors our Website’s presence in Google Search results. This tool provides information about search queries that lead visitors to our site and is primarily used on Google’s side; it does not set cookies on your device.

4.3 How to Opt Out of Google Tracking

You have several options to limit or opt out of Google’s data collection:

Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on — You can install the free browser extension available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits.
Google’s Ad Settings — Manage how Google uses your data for personalization at https://adssettings.google.com.
Browser Cookie Settings — You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Please note that some parts of the Website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
Do Not Track — Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. While we respect your privacy, there is currently no universal standard for responding to DNT signals, and our third-party tools may not respond to them.

6. Data Security and Retention

6.1 Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational precautions to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

6.2 Retention

We retain personal information submitted through our contact forms only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected — typically, to respond to your inquiry — and for a reasonable period thereafter in case of follow-up communication.

Aggregated, anonymized usage data collected through Google Analytics may be retained for longer periods for the purpose of analyzing Website trends and performance.
