This cookies policy explains how and why Tharaa Limited (“Tharaa”) will use different types of cookies and similar technologies on its webstie (the “Website”) that it owns or controla. This cookies policy also explains how you can manage cookies and similar technologies.

When you visit our Website, one or more “cookies” are generated and deployed with your consent, if required.

Cookies are files or pieces of information that are stored on your computer (or other internet-enabled devices, such as a smartphone or tablet) when you visit the Website. A cookie will usually contain the name of the website from which the cookie has come from, the “lifetime” of the cookie (i.e. how long it will remain on your device) and a value, which is usually a randomly generated unique number.

We use cookies to make the Website easier to use and to better tailor our web presence and products to your interests and needs. Cookies are also used to help speed up your future activities and deliver a more personalised experience on the Website.

Some cookies may process your personal data (e.g. IP addresses and other online identifiers). Please see Tharaa Privacy Policy for further details about how your personal data is processed and your rights in relation to this.

Two types of cookies will be used on the Website, “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you leave the Website.
