We may use cookies on our Service to collect information and provide a better experience of our Service. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of the Service.

​

Cookies are text files placed in your computer's browser to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your email address or other personally identifiable information.

​

We also use longer-lasting cookies for other purposes such as to display your content and account information. We encode our cookies so that only we can interpret the information stored in them. You always have the option of disabling cookies via your browser preferences. If you disable cookies on your browser, please note that some parts of our Service may not function as effectively or may be considerably slower.
