1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

A cookie file is stored in your web browser and allows our Services or a third-party to recognise you and make your next visit easier and our Services more useful to you.

2. How Ahban Media Uses Cookies

When you use and access our Services, we may place a number of cookie files in your web browser. We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • To enable certain functions of the Service, such as keeping you logged in.
  • To provide analytics on how the Service is used, helping us understand our audience and improve user experience (e.g., which articles are most popular).
  • To store your preferences, such as language or regional settings.
  • To help us deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use both session and persistent cookies on our Services and we use different types of cookies to run the Services:

  • Essential Cookies: These are strictly necessary for the Site to function. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided.
  • Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our Services, such as which pages you visit most often and if you receive error messages. This data helps us optimise our website and make it easier to navigate. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
  • Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, they can be used to remember your viewing preferences on ahban.tv.
  • Advertising and Targeting Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission.

4. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the Service, deliver advertisements on and through the Service, and so on.

These partners may include, but are not limited to, Google Analytics, Google AdSense, and social media platforms (such as Facebook or Twitter) for content sharing purposes.

5. Your Choices Regarding Cookies

Furthermore, you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.
