6. Cookies and Tracking
We use minimal cookies, only those strictly necessary to operate the Service:

- Cloudflare security cookies — to protect against malicious traffic and bot abuse.
We do not use third-party advertising cookies, behavioral tracking pixels, or cross-site trackers. You can disable cookies in your browser, but parts of the Service (such as signing in) will not work properly without them.
