They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better browsing experience, and supply information to the owners of the site. Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until they expire or you delete them) or "session-based" (removed when you close your browser).

Cookie categories

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms. We do not currently set any strictly necessary cookies beyond standard server-side session handling.

Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. This category includes cookies set by Google Analytics and Vercel Analytics.

Functional cookies

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. This category includes cookies set by the Cal.com booking widget, which allows you to schedule meetings directly on our site.

How to manage cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. The following links may be helpful:

What happens if you disable cookies

If you choose to disable cookies, some parts of this website may not function as intended. For example:

  • The Cal.com booking widget may not work correctly, preventing you from scheduling meetings directly through our site.
  • We will be unable to gather analytics data to improve your browsing experience.
  • Performance monitoring may be limited, which helps us ensure the site loads quickly and reliably.

Disabling cookies will not prevent you from accessing the informational content on our website.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website, Vercel Analytics for performance monitoring, and Cal.com to provide an embedded booking experience. These third parties may use cookies to collect information about your online activities across different websites. We do not control third-party cookies, and we recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these services for more information:
