  • We don’t collect cookies.

    Brief explanation about cookies
    Imagine you're visiting a library, and the librarian gives you a little notebook to write down what books you like, which shelves you visited, and your favorite reading spot. The next time you come back, the librarian looks at your notebook and says, "Welcome back! I remember you like adventure books and you sat near the window last time. Here are some books you might like."

    Cookies on a website work like that little notebook. They are tiny files that help the website remember things about you, like what pages you looked at or your preferences, so it can make your experience better when you visit again. But just like you can decide not to use the notebook, you can also decide not to let websites use cookies. They are the reason the web knows how to advertise to you so well.
