6. Cookie Consent
When you first visit RE Platform, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner. By clicking "Accept All", you consent to all categories of cookies. You may click "Manage Preferences" to customise which categories of non-essential cookies you allow. You can change your preferences at any time via the cookie settings link in the website footer.

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals websites you visit that you do not wish to be tracked. RE Platform currently does not alter its data collection and use practices in response to DNT signals, as no universal standard for DNT compliance exists.
