Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Anqa Limited ('Anqa Compliance', 'we', 'us', 'our') uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website(s). This policy should be read alongside our main Privacy Policy, which details how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. By using our website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy, subject to your choices and applicable legal requirements regarding consent.

We operate in regions including South East Asia, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa, and we aim to comply with relevant regulations concerning cookies and user consent in these jurisdictions.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. When you revisit the site, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser. Cookies can store user preferences and other information, helping to provide a smoother and more personalised experience.

Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device for a set period or until you delete them) or "session" cookies (deleted automatically when you close your browser). They can also be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting, i.e., us) or "third-party" (set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, e.g., by analytics providers or advertisers).

3. How and Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes, including:

• Essential Operations (Strictly Necessary Cookies): These cookies are crucial for the basic functioning of our website. They enable core functionalities like navigating pages, accessing secure areas (e.g., user accounts), and ensuring website security. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
• Performance and Analytics (Performance Cookies): These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often, how users navigate the site, and if they encounter error messages. This data is typically aggregated and anonymised and helps us understand website traffic and improve performance and user experience. We may use third-party analytics services (like Google Analytics) for this purpose.
• Functionality (Functionality Cookies): These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For example, they might remember your login details or preferences for viewing certain content.
• Targeting or Advertising (Targeting Cookies): (Please tailor this based on actual usage - e.g., state "We currently do not use Targeting Cookies" or describe their function if applicable). These cookies may be used to track your Browse habits across different websites to build a profile of your interests. This information might be used by us or third parties to deliver advertising more relevant to you, both on our site and on other sites.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

Based on the purposes above, we use the following categories of cookies:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Always active as they are essential for site operation. Consent is generally not required for these under most laws.
• Performance Cookies: Used to analyse site usage and improve performance.
• Functionality Cookies: Used to remember your choices and provide enhanced features.

We will seek your consent to place Performance and Functionality cookies (and Targeting cookies, if used) where required by applicable law (e.g., through a cookie consent banner or tool when you first visit our site).

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies may be placed by third-party service providers who perform functions for us, such as website analytics (e.g., Google Analytics) or hosting services. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies governing their use of information. We do not control the placement or use of these third-party cookies. We recommend you review their policies.

6. Your Choices and Managing Cookies
