i) Cookie preference management
A clearly visible link labeled Manage cookie preferences is available in the website footer. It opens the cookie preferences panel where you can accept or reject each category independently.
3. Consent requirements
We use a consent banner and a preferences panel to control non-essential cookies. The banner provides three choices: Accept All, Reject Non-Essential, and Manage Preferences. Analytics and marketing cookies are not activated unless you choose to allow them. Your choice is stored in localStorage for 12 months.

You may withdraw consent at any time through the cookie preferences panel without affecting the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal.
Users in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom receive this consent notice in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR. Marketing and analytics cookies are activated solely after explicit, informed, freely given consent under GDPR Article 6(1)(a). Consent is recorded with a timestamp and may be audited upon request.
You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking 'Manage cookie preferences' in the website footer, or by clearing cookies via your browser settings. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred while consent was valid.
