Cookie Policy
Last updated: 15 April 2025
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — such as your language preference or whether you have acknowledged a notice — so you do not need to re-enter it each time you return. They also help us understand how visitors move through our pages, which supports gradual improvements to the experience we offer.
Cookies are not programmes and cannot run code. They hold only the data placed in them by a website and cannot access other information stored on your device.
2. How We Use Cookies
Tindell Ashkar uses cookies for three broad purposes:
- Site functionality. Certain cookies are needed for the website to function as expected — for example, remembering that you have acknowledged the cookie notice, or maintaining the state of interactive elements during a single visit.
- Usage analytics. With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand which pages are visited most often, how visitors arrive at the site, and where they tend to leave. This information is reviewed in aggregate and is not linked to individual identities.
- Preference storage. With your consent, preference cookies allow the site to remember small choices you make — such as an expanded section — so the experience feels consistent across visits.
We do not use cookies for advertising or to track your activity across unrelated websites.
3. Types of Cookies We Use

Always active — required for basic function
These cookies are necessary for the website to operate. Without them, features such as the cookie consent notice itself would not function correctly. They do not collect information used for marketing or analytics purposes. They cannot be disabled through this page, as doing so would impair the usability of the site.

4. Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on our website include functionality provided by third parties, such as an embedded map from Google Maps. When you view a page containing embedded content from a third party, that party may place its own cookies on your device. These cookies are governed by the relevant third party's privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review. We do not control third-party cookies and cannot accept responsibility for them.
5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
In addition to the controls on this page, you can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. The following links lead to guidance for common browsers:

- Mozilla Firefox — Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data

Please be aware that restricting cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites you visit. Deleting cookies does not prevent them from being placed again when you next visit unless you configure your browser to block them or withdraw consent through the controls above.
6. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing not be tracked. There is currently no universal technical standard for how websites should respond to this signal. We will update this policy if our approach changes.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable regulations. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date. We recommend reviewing this policy periodically. Your continued use of the website after changes are posted will constitute your acceptance of the updated policy.
