4. Managing Cookie Preferences
You can control cookies through several methods:

- Opt-out tools: Analytics providers may offer opt-out browser extensions or dashboards.
- Do Not Track: We honor applicable privacy signals where legally required, though not all browsers transmit consistent signals.
Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect website security features and prevent form submissions from working correctly.
5. Local Storage and Session Storage
In addition to cookies, our website may use browser local storage to cache non-sensitive preferences (such as animation reduced-motion overrides) and improve page load performance. This data remains on your device until cleared through browser settings.
