Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 3 February 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device — whether a computer, tablet, or phone — when you visit them. They help a website remember things about your visit, such as your preferences or whether you have already accepted a notice. This means the site can work more smoothly and can be tailored to be more relevant to you.
Cookies are widely used across the internet and, on their own, they do not identify you personally. They simply hold small amounts of data that a website can read the next time you return. Some cookies are placed by us (first-party cookies), while others may be set by services we use, such as analytics providers (third-party cookies).
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. They handle tasks such as maintaining your session while you browse, remembering your cookie consent choice, and supporting core security features. Without them, parts of the site may not function as expected. Because they are essential, they cannot be switched off.
Examples: session identifiers, consent preference storage, security tokens.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our site — which pages are visited most often, how long people spend on different sections, and where visitors arrive from. This information is aggregated and anonymised, meaning it does not directly identify you. We use it to improve the structure and content of our website over time.
Examples: page view tracking, session duration measurement, referral source logging.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies may be set by our advertising partners to build a profile of your browsing interests and show you relevant content on other sites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and device. If you choose not to allow these cookies, you will still see online advertisements, but they may be less tailored to your interests.
Examples: ad personalisation identifiers, conversion tracking pixels, audience segment tags.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred language, region, or display settings — so that we can provide a more personalised experience each time you return. They do not track your activity on other websites.
Examples: language setting, layout preferences, previously dismissed notices.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site are placed by services we rely on to operate and improve the website. These include:
Google Analytics: Helps us measure website traffic and understand how visitors navigate our pages. Google may process data on servers outside Hong Kong. For details, see Google's Privacy Policy.
Facebook Pixel: Used when we run advertising campaigns to measure their performance and reach relevant audiences. See Meta's Privacy Policy.
Microsoft Advertising (Bing UET): Tracks conversions from search advertising. See Microsoft's Privacy Statement.
We do not control how these third parties handle the data their cookies collect. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies for more information.
4. How Long Cookies Last
Cookies fall into two broad categories by lifespan:
Session Cookies: These are temporary and are deleted automatically once you close your browser. They exist only for the duration of your visit and are commonly used for things like keeping you logged in while you move between pages.
Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually. Typical durations range from 30 days (for preference cookies) to up to 26 months (for certain analytics cookies). Each cookie has its own expiry date, which you can view through your browser's settings.
5. Your Cookie Preferences
Use the controls below to adjust which types of cookies you allow on this site. Essential cookies are always active because they are needed for the website to function. Your preferences are saved to your browser and will be remembered on future visits.
6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
In addition to the controls above, you can manage cookies directly through your web browser. Below are instructions for the most commonly used browsers. Please note that restricting cookies may affect how certain parts of our website work.
Google Chrome
Open Chrome and click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner. Go to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and other site data. From here you can block third-party cookies, clear existing cookies, or add specific sites to an allow or block list.
Mozilla Firefox
Open Firefox and click the hamburger menu. Go to Settings, then Privacy & Security. Under the Enhanced Tracking Protection section, choose Standard, Strict, or Custom. The Custom option lets you select exactly which types of cookies to block.
Apple Safari
Open Safari and go to Preferences (or Settings on iOS). Select the Privacy tab. You can prevent cross-site tracking, block all cookies, or manage website data to remove cookies from specific sites.
Microsoft Edge
Open Edge and click the three-dot menu. Navigate to Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies and site data. You can block third-party cookies, clear data on close, or add exceptions for specific websites.
Mobile Browsers
On mobile devices, cookie settings are usually found within the browser's settings menu under Privacy or Site Settings. The exact path varies by browser and operating system. On iOS, Safari cookie settings are accessed through the device's main Settings app under Safari. On Android, Chrome settings are accessed via the three-dot menu within the browser itself.
7. Your Rights and Choices
You have the right to withdraw your cookie consent at any time by returning to the preference controls in Section 5 above or by adjusting your browser settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before you withdrew.
If you choose to disable optional cookies, certain features of the website may not operate as intended — for example, the site may not remember your language preference, or we may be unable to understand which content is most helpful to our visitors.
Under Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance, you also have the right to request access to personal data we hold about you and to request correction of any inaccuracies. For details on exercising these rights, please see our Privacy Policy.
If you have questions about cookies on our website or wish to make a data-related request, please contact us at privacy@quillaar.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, the purposes for which we use them, or applicable regulations. When material changes are made, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. We encourage you to check back periodically.
