2. Cookie Functional Groups

Cookie functional groups consist of Essential groups for required operations, Functional groups for preference retention, Analytics groups for behavior analysis, and Performance groups for speed optimization. Groups serve distinct purposes ensuring functionality and improved experience. First-party groups originate from us; third-party from external services.

3. Indispensable Cookies

Indispensable cookies are vital for platform operation and cannot be deactivated. They enable core features including user authentication, security functions, session management, and basic navigation capabilities. Without indispensable cookies, key services like login functionality, account entry, and security protections cease operating. Personal marketing information collection is not their function.

4. Behavior Tracking Cookies

Behavior tracking cookies help us understand visitor interactions with our platform. They collect information about page visits, source traffic, click behaviors, and session durations. This anonymous aggregated information improves platform performance, identifies technical issues, and enhances overall experiences. Opting out does not affect core functionality.

5. Custom Settings Cookies

Custom settings cookies retain your choices and configurations for personalized platform interactions. They save data such as language preferences, display settings, theme options, and custom layouts. Custom cookies improve usability by remembering settings between sessions. Disabling custom settings may necessitate preference adjustments per visit and limit personalization.

6. Outside Integration Cookies

Outside integration cookies are set by external integrations on our platform, including analytics systems, ad services, and social media features. These cookies may track activity across multiple websites. We lack control over outside integration cookies or practices. Management occurs through browser settings or integration-provided opt-out tools. Review integration privacy policies for detailed information.

8. Cookie Longevity Information

Cookie longevity information differs depending on cookie type and purpose. Session longevity cookies expire when you close browsers and are temporary. Persistent longevity cookies stay for specified periods or until manual removal, ranging from days to years. Essential cookies typically maintain session longevity, while preference and analytics cookies may endure longer to remember settings and analyze extended patterns.
