Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, phone, or other device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve performance, and provide information to site owners. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on that website ("third-party cookies").
Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, local storage, and scripts that collect information in a similar manner.

The exact optional cookies depend on which providers are configured for the site. The preference controls prevent optional analytics and advertising scripts from loading until the matching category is allowed. A provider may use additional storage after it loads; its current documentation describes that storage and retention.
These records are stored on our servers and are not cookies:

The consent record expires after 180 days; withdrawing a category clears its identifiers and prevents queued events for that category from being sent.Use the Cookie Settings link in the site footer to accept, reject, or customize optional categories.
