2. Information We Collect

We do not directly collect personal information from visitors. However, third-party services we use may collect certain data automatically, including:

• IP address and browser type
• Pages visited and time spent on the site
• Device and operating system information

3. Cookies

This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device. On your first visit, a cookie banner asks you to accept or reject non-essential cookies (the kind used by our advertising partners to serve relevant ads). We use Google's Consent Mode, so no advertising cookies are set until you accept. You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer, or disable cookies entirely in your browser settings.

4. Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Once you accept cookies, Google uses them to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. If you reject or have not yet responded to the cookie banner, ads are served in a limited, non-personalized mode.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

Our site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies.

6. Children's Privacy

This website is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
