  • Social media icons linking to Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn – these are simple outbound links, not embedded widgets, and therefore do not install cookies.

If we embed external widgets (e.g., Instagram feed, Facebook plugin, Maps, embedded videos), these may set third-party cookies. We will update this Policy before enabling such integrations.
