How Do We Use Cookies?
Below is more information to better understand the different types of cookies that may be used:

The information collected through these cookies is used to analyze traffic patterns on the website. Over time, this helps improve the content and usability of the site.
Permanent Cookies: These are stored on the hard drive and the website reads them every time the user visits again. Despite their name, a permanent cookie has a set expiration date. It will stop working after that date. They are generally used to facilitate the different services offered by the website.
Types, Purpose, and Operation of Cookies:
Additionally, based on their purpose, cookies can be classified as follows:

The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to services through social networks by updating preferences in the social network itself.
Analytics Cookies: Each time a user visits a service, an external provider tool (such as Omniture, Comscore, etc.) generates an analytical cookie on the user's computer. This cookie, created only on the visit, will be used on future visits to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives include:
