TL;DR: We use the minimum number of cookies strictly required to keep you signed in and remember your preferences. No advertising cookies. No tracking pixels. No third-party analytics that identify you. This page is the complete list.
What cookies actually are
A cookie is a small text file a website saves on your device to remember things between visits. They come in two flavors: first-party (set by us) and third-party (set by external services we load on our page). Our approach: use first-party cookies only where essential; never load third-party advertising or tracking.
Cookies we set
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
hp_session | Keeps you signed in across pages. | 30 days (rolling) | Strictly necessary |
hp_locale | Remembers your language preference. | 1 year | Functional |
hp_theme | Remembers your light/dark/auto theme choice. | 1 year | Functional |
hp_csrf | Prevents cross-site request forgery on form submissions. | Session only | Strictly necessary |
hp_cookiebanner | Remembers that you’ve seen the cookie banner. | 1 year | Functional |
Cookies we don’t set
- No Google Analytics or equivalent. We use privacy-respecting analytics (currently Plausible) which does not require cookies at all.
- No advertising cookies. We do not run ads.
- No social media pixel tracking. You won’t see Facebook Pixel, Twitter/X pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, or similar on our pages.
- No fingerprinting. No cookies substituted with browser fingerprinting.
- No cross-site tracking. Our cookies only work on hafizprime.com — they can’t follow you elsewhere.
Third-party services we use (and their cookie status)
- Cloudflare (CDN/DDoS protection): sets a
__cf_bmcookie to distinguish real users from bots. Duration: 30 minutes. Cannot be disabled without breaking the site. - Stripe (only on checkout pages, only if you upgrade): sets cookies required for payment security. Not present on marketing pages.
Managing cookies
You can delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. If you delete hp_session, you’ll be signed out. If you delete hp_locale or hp_theme, your preferences reset.
Blocking cookies
Most modern browsers let you block cookies selectively. If you block our cookies, the site will still work for browsing content — you just won’t be able to sign in or save preferences.
Do Not Track
We honor the browser’s Do Not Track signal. If enabled, even our privacy-respecting analytics is skipped for your session.
Changes to this policy
If we ever add a new cookie — or a third-party service that sets one — we’ll update this page and notify signed-in users through the app. We won’t silently add tracking.
