Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website.

Cookies We Use
We may use the following types of cookies on our website:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the website to function. They include session management, security tokens, and authentication cookies provided by Clerk. Without these, core features like signing in would not work.
- Preference Cookies: These remember your settings and preferences, such as your selected theme (Classic or Epic), to provide a consistent experience across visits.
