Cookie Policy

# Cookie Policy

**Last updated:** [DATE]

This Cookie Policy explains how Hajiparvaneh Systems uses cookies and similar technologies on [INSERT WEBSITE URL]. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

## 1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on a device. Similar technologies, such as pixels, local storage, and tags, may perform comparable functions.

## 2. Categories of cookies

### Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for functions that you specifically request, such as security, session management, form submission, load balancing, cookie-consent preferences, and basic website operation. They do not require consent where an applicable law permits their use because they are strictly necessary.

### Preference cookies

These remember choices such as language or display preferences. They should be activated only after consent unless they are strictly necessary for a service you requested.

### Analytics cookies

These help us understand traffic and website performance. They may collect information such as pages viewed, approximate location, device data, and interaction events. Analytics cookies are non-essential and must remain disabled until the visitor gives consent where required.

### Marketing or advertising cookies

These may be used to measure campaigns, build profiles, or deliver targeted advertising. They are non-essential and must remain disabled until consent is given. Hajiparvaneh Systems should not deploy them unless there is a documented business need and compliant consent mechanism.

## 3. Consent and controls

On the first visit, non-essential cookies must be blocked until the visitor gives a clear affirmative choice. The consent banner should provide equally prominent options to accept and reject non-essential cookies, allow granular category choices, avoid pre-ticked boxes and dark patterns, and link to this Policy and the Privacy Policy.

Visitors may change or withdraw consent at any time through [INSERT COOKIE SETTINGS LINK]. Withdrawal must be as easy as giving consent. Consent records should include the date, time, version of the notice, categories selected, and relevant device or consent identifier, subject to applicable law.

A browser setting alone is not a substitute for a compliant consent mechanism where consent is required.

## 4. Current cookie inventory

Before publication, complete and maintain a current inventory containing the cookie name, provider, purpose, category, duration, data collected, whether it is first- or third-party, international transfer details, and the consent requirement. The inventory should include cookies used by the website, forms, scheduling tools, embedded videos, chat tools, analytics, CRM systems, and advertising platforms.

Example inventory format:

| Name | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration | First/third party | Consent required | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | [INSERT] | [INSERT] | [INSERT] | [INSERT] | [INSERT] | [INSERT] | [YES/NO] |

Do not publish this example as if it were an actual inventory.

## 5. Third parties and international transfers

Third-party services may place cookies or access information from the website. Their use must be documented and supported by appropriate privacy notices, contracts, and international-transfer safeguards where required. Providers should not be enabled before the required consent is obtained.

## 6. Retention and deletion

Cookie lifetimes should be limited to what is necessary. Consent and preference records should be retained only as long as necessary to demonstrate and manage consent, subject to legal requirements. Expired or withdrawn cookies should be removed or prevented from being set.

## 7. Contact

Questions about cookies should be sent to [INSERT PRIVACY EMAIL].
