What Cookies Are Doing Here
Session cookies keep you signed in as you move between pages, so credentials don't need re-entering on every load. A small batch of preference cookies remember display settings for a consistent experience on repeat visits.
None of this feeds third-party advertisers — cookies here aren't used to sell browsing activity.
Managing Cookies on Your End
Since usage here is limited to session management and basic preferences rather than ad trackers, there's not much practical difference whether you manage cookies through browser settings or leave them at default — blocking session cookies specifically just means getting logged out between page loads.
Most browsers let you clear cookies per-site rather than everywhere at once, which is a clean way to reset just your session here without touching other sites you use.
