What Are Cookies?

Cookies act as tiny digital memory files. Your internet browser saves them directly on your computer or mobile device.

These small files help our website remember your specific preferences. They make your daily browsing experience much faster and smoother.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to understand our global audience better. They tell us which medical articles patients read the most.

They remember if you already closed our newsletter popup window. This stops the website from annoying you with the same message repeatedly.

The Types of Cookies We Use

We currently utilize three distinct types of cookies on our platform:

• Essential Cookies: Our website physically requires these files to function correctly. You cannot turn these specific cookies off in our system.
• Analytics Cookies: We use these files to count our daily global visitors. They show us how people navigate between our different web pages.
• Functional Cookies: These files remember your language choices and visual preferences. They provide a highly personalized reading experience.

Managing Your Cookies

You hold complete control over your digital footprint. You can easily delete all cookies through your internet browser settings at any time.

You can also program your browser to reject all future non-essential cookies. However, rejecting functional cookies might break certain features on our website.

Third-Party Cookies

We occasionally embed helpful educational videos from external platforms. These external partners might place their own cookies on your device.

For example, a video player uses cookies to track view counts globally. We do not control these external files. You must check the third-party website for their specific tracking rules.

Policy Updates

We regularly review our tracking methods to ensure compliance with global laws. We will update this exact page if we introduce new types of cookies.
