• In compliance with Microsoft Advertising’s requirements, we have implemented Microsoft Advertising Consent Mode. This means:

1. In the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, advertising cookies and tracking (e.g., Microsoft UET tags) are disabled by default.
2. These will only be activated if you explicitly consent through our consent banner or Consent Management Platform (CMP).
3. If you do not provide consent, ads may still be shown, but they will not be personalized using your data.

Opt-In: By accepting cookies in our banner, you agree to the use of your data for personalized advertising by Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, or similar partners.

Withdraw Consent: You may withdraw consent at any time through our cookie settings or the following links:

• Google Ads: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/anonymous

We use Personal Information to:

• Provide access to product reviews and services.

• Ensure compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

For residents of the EEA or UK, we process information under the following bases:

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, update, or delete your Personal Information.
• Withdraw consent to marketing at any time.
• Request data portability (EEA/UK).
• Restrict or object to processing activities.
