Data Retention and Storage

Different types of cookies have varying retention periods based on their function. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain for months or years depending on their purpose.

Retention Periods

Essential cookies typically last for the duration of your browsing session. Preference cookies may be stored for up to two years to maintain your customized settings. Analytics cookies generally have a retention period of 24 months, allowing us to track long-term trends in platform usage.

Marketing cookies usually expire after 90 days, though some may persist longer to provide consistent personalization across multiple visits. We regularly review and purge outdated tracking data to minimize unnecessary data retention.
