4. Managing or Disabling Cookies

Browser Controls

Most browsers allow you to block or delete Cookies. Refer to your browser's "Settings" or "Help" section for instructions. Please note that disabling Essential Cookies may degrade or block certain critical Platform features (e.g., authentication, device pairing).

Opt-Out Mechanisms

Some analytics providers, like Google Analytics, offer their own browser add-on to opt out of data collection. If we use specific advertising networks, they may offer opt-out options — check their individual privacy policies or industry-wide opt-out pages (e.g., YourAdChoices.com).

Do Not Track (DNT)

Some browsers send a "DNT" signal to indicate a preference not to be tracked. Currently, our Platform does not respond to DNT signals unless required by applicable law. You can still adjust your Cookie preferences via the methods above.

Where required, we use measures like Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure your data is treated in compliance with applicable privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR).

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations, or technology. When we make material changes, we will notify you via email, a prominent notice on the Platform, or other appropriate channels. Continued use of our Platform after the changes take effect indicates your acceptance of the updated Cookie Policy.
