- Equal Prominence: Our banner provides "Accept" and "Decline" buttons of equal visual weight.
- Granularity: You may choose to accept specific categories (e.g., Analytics) while rejecting others (e.g., Marketing).

You maintain full control over your data preferences at all times:
- Cookie Settings: You can re-open our consent banner at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link located in the footer of our website.
