6. Cookies & Tracking
We use strictly necessary cookies to maintain your authenticated session. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so will prevent you from remaining logged in to your account.
7. Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures including TLS 1.3 encryption in transit, AES-256 encryption at rest, and role-based access controls.
