Our websites are served through Cloudflare, which provides content delivery network (CDN) services, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection, and web security features. Cloudflare may collect and process certain data, including your IP address, to provide these services. Cloudflare sets necessary cookies (such as __cf_bm and cf_clearance) for bot management and security verification. These cookies are essential for the proper functioning and protection of our websites. For more information, see the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

  • Server logs — Cloudflare access and security logs are retained according to Cloudflare's data retention policies, typically no longer than 72 hours for most log types.
  • Cookies — Cookie expiration periods vary by type. Google Analytics cookies expire after up to 2 years. Cloudflare security cookies are session-based or expire within 30 minutes to 24 hours.

When personal information is no longer needed for the purposes outlined in this policy, we will securely delete or anonymize it.
