Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to improve efficiency, and to provide information to the owners of the website.

Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies a person. However, information we store in cookies may be linked to personal information that you provide to us or that we collect in other ways.

Similar technologies, including local storage and session storage, may also be used for comparable purposes. References to "cookies" in this policy encompass these similar technologies where relevant.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to ensure that our website functions correctly, to remember your preferences, and to understand how visitors interact with our content. This helps us maintain and improve the website over time.

We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles, track you across other websites, or serve targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior.

Your consent preferences are stored in a cookie named thb_consent. This cookie records your choices about non-essential cookies so that we can respect those choices on your future visits. It does not contain personal data.

Types of Cookies by Duration

Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session state as you navigate between pages on our website, for example to remember that you have scrolled past the cookie consent prompt within a single visit.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them. We use persistent cookies to remember your consent preferences across visits. The thb_consent cookie is a persistent cookie with a lifespan of twelve months from the date of your last preference update.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without them, certain parts of the website would not operate correctly. These cookies do not require your consent under applicable law because they are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested.

Essential cookies used on this website include the cookie consent preference cookie (thb_consent), which records whether you have interacted with our consent tool, and session state cookies that maintain basic website functionality during your visit.

You can block essential cookies using your browser settings, but doing so may prevent the website from working as intended.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting information about which pages are visited, how long visitors spend on each page, and how they arrived at the website. This information is used in aggregate form to improve website structure and content.

Analytics cookies are non-essential and are only placed on your device with your consent. If you decline analytics cookies through our consent tool, we will not place them.

Any analytics services used on this website are configured to anonymize IP addresses and to not share data for advertising purposes.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, remembering your language preference or display settings.

Functional cookies are non-essential. We will only use them where you have given consent through our cookie management tool. Declining functional cookies means some enhanced features may not be available, but the core website will continue to operate normally.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie consent icon located in the bottom-right corner of this website. Clicking the icon opens a panel where you can toggle consent for each non-essential cookie category individually.

You can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, and delete cookies. The steps vary by browser:

• In Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
• In Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy and Security > Cookies and Site Data
• In Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• In Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions

Blocking all cookies through your browser may affect website functionality beyond the scope of non-essential cookies.

Third-Party Cookies

Our website may include embedded content from third-party services, such as the Google Maps iframe on our contact page. Third-party services may set their own cookies when you interact with embedded content. These cookies are governed by the third party's own privacy and cookie policies, not by this document.

The Google Maps embed on our contact page is subject to Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. We recommend reviewing Google's privacy documentation if you have questions about cookies set by embedded mapping services.

We do not control third-party cookies and cannot prevent them from being set when you interact with embedded third-party content.

Legal Framework

Our use of cookies is governed by Egyptian Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020 and its Executive Regulations, which establish requirements for transparency and consent in connection with the use of tracking technologies.

We seek your consent before placing any non-essential cookies on your device. Essential cookies are placed on the basis of legitimate interest in the provision of a functioning website service, as recognized under applicable Egyptian law.

Your consent, when given, applies only to the categories you have accepted and may be withdrawn at any time without affecting your ability to use the website.

Policy Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, in applicable law, or in the services we operate. When we make changes, we will update the date at the top of this page.

If we introduce new cookie categories that require consent, we will present the updated consent prompt when you next visit the website.
