Cookie Policy
This policy describes the small data files and similar storage used to operate the Foundation website and explains when a choice banner is shown.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by a browser. Similar browser storage, such as local storage, may be used to remember a preference without sending that preference with every request.
Essential cookies
The website may use essential cookies for session continuity, security, request verification, form protection, load balancing, and language or accessibility preferences. These functions are necessary to provide the service you request and cannot always be disabled through the site. Blocking them in your browser may prevent forms or other features from working.
Optional cookies
The current website does not enable optional analytics or advertising cookies by default. If optional analytics, personalization, or marketing technology is introduced, the website configuration enables a choice banner before those optional cookies are activated. Choosing “Essential only” leaves optional categories disabled.
Third-party features
Interactive maps, embedded videos, and anti-spam protection may connect to third-party services when a feature is activated or a protected form is used. Those providers may process technical information under their own policies. Privacy-enhanced embeds and click-to-load behavior are used where practical.
Your cookie choice
When the choice banner is enabled, your selection is stored in local browser storage with a policy version so the website can remember it. You can clear the site’s storage in your browser to make the banner appear again. If a future settings control is provided, it can be used to change the same preference.
Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to inspect, block, or delete cookies and site data. The exact controls differ by browser. Disabling essential storage may affect sign-in, security, form submission, and language preferences.
Updates
We update this policy when cookie categories, providers, purposes, or retention practices change. Material changes may require the website to ask for your choice again.
