Similar technologies, such as pixels, web beacons, and local storage, are also used for similar purposes to collect data or store information on your device. For the purpose of this policy, we refer to all these technologies collectively as “cookies.”

7. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.
Here are instructions for common browsers:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data

⚠️ Note: Disabling strictly necessary cookies will break essential website functionality, including the shopping cart and checkout process, preventing you from making purchases.
A “Cookie Preferences” link is always available in our website footer, allowing you to manage your consent for non-essential cookies.
8. Do Not Track (DNT)
Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals to websites with which the browser communicates. We currently do not alter our data collection and usage practices in response to browser DNT signals.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. If we add new third-party services that set cookies, we will update this policy and — where required by law — request fresh consent before placing new non-essential cookies. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
