Performance Cookies

These cookies (IndyKite uses Google Analytics) allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. If you deny Cookie Consent, Google Analytic 4 cookies do not fire, but the tags still send cookieless pings to Google. These cookieless pings allow Google to process non-personal data and provide modeled data for the website.
