Google Consent Mode v2
We use Google Consent Mode v2, which means: all Google tracking is initialized in a 'denied' state by default. When you accept cookies, we send an 'update' signal to Google enabling the relevant tracking. If you decline, Google may still collect aggregate, cookieless measurement data for modeling purposes, but no cookies are placed on your device.
Third-Party Cookies
Third-party services integrated into our site may set their own cookies. These are governed by those services' own privacy and cookie policies.
For Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
We do not control third-party cookie behaviour beyond what Consent Mode v2 allows.
