1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Local storage works in a similar way but is never sent to our servers. This policy supplements the Privacy Policy.
2. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the site to work securely. They are exempt from consent and cannot be switched off.

3. First-Party Measurement

When you pay with PayPal, you complete the payment on PayPal's own pages, which set their own cookies under PayPal's cookie policy.
7. Managing Your Choice
- To change your analytics choice, clear this site's data in your browser. The consent banner then appears again.
- You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies prevents sign-in and checkout.
