== 3. Cookies and Similar Technologies ==

Wikidesk may use cookies or similar technologies to support essential website functions, remember certain preferences, understand website usage, or improve performance.

Cookies are small files stored by a browser on a device. You can generally control or remove cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function.

If third-party analytics, advertising, embedded content, or other services are used on Wikidesk, those services may place or access cookies according to their own policies.

== 4. Analytics and Third-Party Services ==

Wikidesk may use third-party services for purposes such as website analytics, security, hosting, performance monitoring, embedded media, or other technical functions.

These providers may process certain technical information as necessary to provide their services. Their handling of information is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.

Where practical, Wikidesk seeks to use third-party services in a manner consistent with reasonable privacy and security practices.
