Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the basic functioning of our Services. Without these cookies, features like secure login and transaction processing would not work.

- Without functional cookies, we won't remember your preferences, and you may need to re-enter settings each visit

7. Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other technologies to collect information:
7.1 Local Storage
We use browser local storage to store certain preferences and temporary data on your device. Local storage is similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data. You can clear local storage through your browser's developer tools or settings.
7.2 Log Files
Like most websites, we automatically collect certain information when you visit our Services and store it in log files. This information may include IP addresses, browser type, device information, referring URLs, pages viewed, and timestamps. We use this information for security, troubleshooting, and analytics purposes.
7.3 Device Fingerprinting
For fraud prevention and security purposes, we may collect information about your device configuration (such as screen resolution, timezone, and installed fonts) to create a device "fingerprint". This helps us identify potentially fraudulent activity and protect your account. We do not use device fingerprinting for advertising purposes.
8. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that they do not track the user. Because there is no common industry standard for DNT, we do not currently respond to DNT signals.
However, as described in this policy, we do not engage in cross-site tracking or sell your data to third parties for advertising purposes, regardless of DNT settings.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy.
For material changes, we may also provide notice through our website or by other means. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
