This notice lists everything hayssamalamine.com stores on your device, what each item is for, and how to change your mind. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What this site stores

Most of what this site keeps is not a cookie at all. It is browser storage: data held by your own browser, readable only by this site, and never sent to our server. We list it here anyway, because the distinction matters less to you than knowing what is on your device.

Necessary — always on

These exist so the site works. They carry no identifier and cannot be used to track you.

• ha_lang — whether you are reading in English or Arabic.
• ha_cookie_consent — your answer to the banner, so you are not asked again.
• ha_cart — the books in your basket, so they survive a page reload.
• ha_chat_v1 — your conversation with the assistant, so it is still there if you navigate away.

All four stay in your browser until you clear its storage. None of them is sent to us, and there is no way to decline them without breaking the feature they belong to.

Analytics — only if you accept

If you accept, Google Analytics 4 sets _ga and _ga_<id> to count visits and see which pages are read. They last up to two years. We have turned off Google Signals and ad personalisation, so this data is not used to build an advertising profile of you.

Until you answer the banner, and permanently if you decline, the Google tag is never placed on the page. It is not loaded and then asked to hold back — no request is made to Google and no cookie is set. If you accept and later withdraw, we stop the measurement and delete both cookies.

Third parties, on the pages that use them

• Calendly may set its own cookies once you open the booking scheduler. It is embedded rather than linked, and loads nothing until you open it — if you never do, nothing from Calendly reaches your device. Calendly’s in-widget banner is switched off because this notice covers it. See its cookie notice.
• Stripe sets cookies needed to process a payment and detect fraud, on the checkout page only.
• YouTube and Instagram serve embedded videos and reels on the media pages. We use YouTube’s no-cookie player, which does not set tracking cookies unless you play a video.

We do not use advertising cookies, we do not run remarketing pixels, and no social network receives a record of your visit.

2. Managing your preferences

You chose when you first arrived, and you can change that choice here at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though doing so may stop parts of the site working.

3. Changes

When what we store changes, this list changes with it and the date above is updated.
