1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies and local storage tokens are small text files or key-value data fragments saved on your computer or mobile device when you visit web pages. They enable websites to recall user preferences (such as menu states or cookie consent choices) and help site operators analyze traffic patterns.
For broader details on how we handle personal data, please review our Privacy Policy.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
A. Strictly Essential Storage
These storage elements are necessary for the technical operation of our educational library. They enable basic functions like page navigation, mobile menu states, and remembering your cookie consent choice. Without these, core site features cannot function.
B. Functional & Analytical Storage (Optional)
Aggregated analytics tokens help us understand which glossary terms and educational guides are read most frequently, allowing our curriculum team to identify which subjects require expanded articles. These tokens collect anonymized usage metrics without tracking individual identities across external websites.
