This Cookie Policy explains how Abdabis LLC ("Abdabis," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on abdabis.com, www.abdabis.com and any subdomain of abdabis.com that links to this policy (the "Site"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
You can change your choice at any time by selecting Cookie settings, a link that also appears at the bottom of every page.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device through your browser. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your choices and to provide information to the website's owner. "First-party" cookies are set by the website you are visiting; "third-party" cookies are set by a different domain. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and software development kits. In this policy, "cookies" includes these similar technologies.
2. Our approach
We keep cookies to a minimum. The Site uses:
- one strictly necessary cookie, which remembers your cookie choice; and
- Google Analytics cookies, which are optional and help us understand how the Site is used.
We do not use advertising, retargeting, social media or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not use session-replay or fingerprinting technologies. We have disabled Google signals and ad personalization in our Google Analytics configuration. The fonts and code libraries used by the Site are hosted on our own domain, so they do not set cookies or send your information to third parties.
3. The cookies we use
3.1. Strictly necessary
These cookies are needed for the Site to respect your privacy choices. They cannot be switched off in our cookie settings, but you can block or delete them in your browser, in which case we will ask for your choice again.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
abd_consent |
Abdabis (first party, set on .abdabis.com) |
Stores whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies, so we can respect that choice on later visits and across our subdomains. Its value is only "granted" or "denied." | 6 months |
3.2. Analytics (optional)
These cookies are set by Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. They help us count visits, understand which pages are useful and see how visitors arrive at and move through the Site, so that we can improve it. The information is reported to us in aggregated form.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics (first party, set on .abdabis.com) |
Distinguishes one browser from another using a randomly generated identifier | 13 months |
_ga_XPWJMCFDM7 |
Google Analytics (first party, set on .abdabis.com) |
Keeps the state of your current session (for example, when it started and how many pages you have viewed) | 13 months |
When analytics cookies are allowed, your browser also loads Google's tag script from www.googletagmanager.com and sends measurement data to Google. Google processes this information as described in "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services." According to Google, Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. When analytics cookies are not allowed, the Google tag is not loaded at all and no information is sent to Google.
4. How the default depends on where you are
We apply the privacy model that the law of your likely location calls for:
- United States. If your device is set to a United States time zone, analytics cookies are on by default. You can turn them off at any time with the Reject button in the cookie notice or through "Cookie settings."
- Everywhere else, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Türkiye, analytics cookies are off by default. Nothing is loaded or set unless you choose Accept.
We estimate whether you are in the United States only from your device's time-zone setting, which your browser makes available to every website. We do not use your IP address, GPS or any other location data for this purpose. If you are outside the United States but your device uses a U.S. time zone, you can reject analytics cookies at any time.
5. Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal and you have not made a different choice on the Site, we treat the signal as a request to opt out: Google Analytics does not load, and we do not show you the cookie notice. If you later choose to accept analytics cookies through "Cookie settings," we will follow that explicit choice.
6. How to manage cookies
- On the Site. Select Cookie settings at the bottom of any page and choose Accept or Reject. If you reject analytics cookies after accepting them, we stop Google Analytics and delete the
_gacookies from your browser. Your choice applies to abdabis.com and its subdomains and lasts for 6 months, after which we ask again. - In your browser. Most browsers let you view, block and delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may affect how some websites work. Guidance is available from your browser's help pages, for example for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Microsoft Edge.
- Google's opt-out. You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data on any website by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it.
7. Subdomains
Abdabis may operate other websites on subdomains of abdabis.com. Where a subdomain links to this policy, it uses the same cookies, the same notice and the same consent choice described here. Because the abd_consent cookie is set on .abdabis.com, a choice you make on one of these sites is respected on the others.
8. Changes to this policy
We will update this policy if we change the cookies we use or how we use them, and we will change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we introduce new categories of cookies that require your consent, we will ask for your consent again.
