What Are Cookies?
As is common practice with almost all professional websites, Our Website uses cookies, which are tiny files that are downloaded to your computer, to improve your experience.

Key Concepts
First and Third Party Cookies
Whether a cookie is “first” or “third” party refers to the domain placing the cookie.
First-party cookies are those set by a website that is being visited by the user at the time (e.g., cookies placed by haldev.staging.wpengine.com).
Third-party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies remain on a user’s device for the period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.
Session Cookies
Session cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
How to Delete and Block Our Cookies
You block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies.
Changing Your Cookie Settings
Please note that Internet browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the “options” or “preferences” menu of your internet browser. You should use the “Help” option in your internet browser for more details.
If you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or parts of Our Website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies as soon as you return to Our Website.
