1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website asks your browser to store on your device. They let a site recognize that you have visited before, remember your preferences between visits, and operate features that need to persist across pages. By themselves, cookies do not identify you personally — but they can be linked to personal information that you have voluntarily provided.
2. Types of cookies we may use
We use up to four kinds of cookies: essential cookies, which are required for the site to function; preference cookies, which remember choices like your selected language; performance cookies, which help us understand which pages are read most often, in aggregate; and third-party cookies set by services embedded in our pages, such as a donation processor.
3. How we use cookies
We use cookies to remember whether you have selected English or Spanish, to keep the site reliable, to detect and mitigate automated abuse, and — when those features are added — to help us measure how the site is performing in aggregate. We do not use cookies for cross-site advertising or for any form of profile-based ad targeting.
4. Managing cookies
Most browsers accept cookies by default, but you can change your browser’s settings to block some or all cookies, to be prompted before a cookie is set, or to delete cookies that are already stored. If you block essential cookies, parts of this site (such as language preference or form submissions) may not work properly. Each browser handles this differently — your browser’s help pages will explain how.
5. Analytics and tracking technologies
If we add a privacy-respecting analytics tool, it may collect aggregate information such as IP address (which we hash before storage), browser type, device type, approximate geographic region, the page that referred you to us, and the pages you viewed on this site. Analytics data is used in aggregate to improve the site, not to track individual visitors across the web.
6. Data security
Cookies and the information associated with them are protected by the same SSL / TLS encryption that covers the rest of the site, and by the safeguards described in our SSL / Security Policy. No online system is completely secure, but we apply commercially reasonable measures.
7. Third-party websites
Cookies set by external sites we link to are governed by those sites’ own cookie policies. We do not control or take responsibility for them, and we encourage you to review their policies separately before interacting with those sites.
8. Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy when the site’s use of cookies changes. Updates take effect when they are posted, and the "effective date" at the top of this page will be revised to reflect the change.
