Cookies Set by External Services
Several third-party services integrated into this website may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies and they operate under the privacy policies of the respective services:

- — Google Fonts. Font stylesheets loaded from fonts.googleapis.com may set cookies or log request data. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.
- — CDN services. JavaScript libraries loaded from jsDelivr, cdnjs, and unpkg may log requests including IP address. These are standard CDN access logs and do not result in cookies on your device.
