    While your site has a pop-up saying I can manage my cookie preferences, there does not in fact seem to be any way to do so… as a result, I will not be giving my consent and will be leaving your site.

      I agree. It’s frustrating to have all this information taken from our devices to begin with and when we try to go I and protect them, only to find out there isn’t a way, I call it a shame. You can’t even scroll down without the square in the middle of the screen getting in your way.
