1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They help websites function, remember your preferences, measure how visitors use the site, and (sometimes) deliver advertising relevant to you.

- Understand how visitors use the site (analytics, with consent)
- Show relevant content and advertising on third-party platforms (marketing, with consent)
When you first visit grownapps.io, our cookie banner asks for your consent for non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences any time by clicking [FILL IN: "Cookie settings" link in footer].
