Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 12th, 2024
This Cookie Policy explains how Hira Quraeshi (“we”, “us”, or “ours”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at hiraquraeshi.com (“Website”). It provides detailed information about what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control my use of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Websites widely use them to make their sites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the site owner (in this case, Hira Quraeshi) are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the site owner are called “third-party cookies”. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.
The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our Website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser’s help menu for more information.
The specific types of first and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described below:
Essential website cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.
Analytics and customization cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our Website for you.
Advertising cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.
Please note that third-party providers may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.
