Cookies Policy

This page explains how HuTraits uses cookies and similar technologies when you browse the platform, sign in, use dashboard features, or interact with bookings, messaging, payments, and live-lesson functionality. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device or browser. Similar technologies may also be used, such as local storage, technical identifiers, and comparable browser-based tools that support similar purposes.

2. Why we use them

• To keep the platform secure and maintain login sessions.
• To remember operational preferences such as timezone, locale, or certain interface selections.
• To support technical performance, reliability, and security monitoring.
• To enable certain integrated tools or third-party services where required for payments, messaging, or media functionality.

3. Types of cookies and similar technologies we may use

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These are needed for core platform functions such as authentication, secure navigation, session continuity, CSRF protection, and other essential service operations. Disabling them may prevent important parts of the platform from working correctly.

3.2 Preference cookies

These may be used to remember functional choices such as interface language, timezone, visual preferences, or other user settings that improve your experience.

3.3 Performance or measurement technologies

Where enabled, these may help us understand technical performance and aggregated usage patterns so that we can improve reliability and usability. Where law requires consent for non-essential cookies, the appropriate consent standard should apply.

3.4 Third-party cookies

Some third-party providers, such as payment, video, or infrastructure services, may place their own cookies or similar technologies when their tools are loaded or used through the platform. Their processing is subject to their own privacy and cookie practices.

4. Practical examples on HuTraits

• Session cookies used to keep you signed in securely.
• Functional preference storage used to display booking times and interface elements correctly for your locale or timezone.
• Technical state used to operate dashboards, secure forms, and booking workflows.

5. Managing your preferences

• You can usually manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.
• If you block essential cookies, some parts of HuTraits may stop working correctly, including login, bookings, or other core flows.
• If you clear previously stored cookies or storage items, you may need to reapply certain preferences manually.

6. Retention

Some cookies are temporary and expire when you close your browser, while others may remain longer in order to remember settings, support security, or maintain operational continuity for a reasonable period.

7. Updates and contact

We may update this Cookies Policy to reflect operational, technical, legal, or product changes. If you have questions about cookie use or technical preferences on HuTraits, please contact us through the official support channels available on the platform.
