4.2 Advertising

We publish our Google AdSense publisher identifier and first-party ads.txt record for site verification, but do not currently load the AdSense ad script or render display ad slots while the site is under review. If ads are enabled after approval, Google and its partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers to serve and measure ads. We will enable Google Funding Choices, Google's certified consent-management platform, before serving personalized ads to EEA or UK users. You can control Google ad personalization by visiting Google Ads Settings.

The optional feedback form sends the message, optional email address, and current page URL to Web3Forms so we can receive and respond to feedback. Do not include sensitive personal information in feedback messages.

Our website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may collect technical data as described in their Privacy Policy.

5. Cookies

We use the following types of cookies:
