Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy applies to www.hyarc.in, operated by HYARC. Here is the short version:

• No tracking. We do not use advertising, analytics, social media or tracking cookies, and we do not use tracking pixels. We do not set any third-party cookies.
• One strictly necessary cookie, used only when HYARCstaff sign in to the website’s administration area. Visitors to the public website never receive it.
• Two small preference items kept in your own browser: your light or dark theme choice, and a note that you closed the WhatsApp chat pop-up. They stay on your device and are not sent to us.
• No cookie banner today. Because nothing on this website tracks you or builds a profile of you, we do not currently show a cookie consent banner. If that ever changes, we will ask you first (see If we add analytics or marketing cookies).

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store. Your browser sends it back to that website on later visits, which lets the site remember things such as whether you are signed in.

• First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies are set by another company, usually for advertising or analytics.
• Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser or when they expire after a short time. Persistent cookies stay for a set period or until you delete them.

Websites can also store small amounts of data in your browser in other ways:

• Local storage (localStorage) keeps data on your device until you clear it.
• Session storage (sessionStorage) keeps data only until you close the browser tab.

Unlike cookies, local storage and session storage are not sent to the website’s server automatically. This policy covers cookies and these similar technologies together.

This is the complete list of cookies and browser storage used by this website:

Strictly necessary

The hyarc_admin_session cookie is needed for the administration area to work securely. It holds a signed, time-limited sign-in token and no information about website visitors. It is marked HttpOnly, so scripts on the page cannot read it, and on the live website it is marked Secure, so it is only sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection.

Preferences

The two preference items only remember choices you make on this website. They do not identify you, are not linked to any enquiry you send us, and are never sent to our server.

Server logs are not cookies

Like any website, our web server keeps standard technical logs of requests (such as IP address, date and time, the page requested, the page you came from and browser details) for security and troubleshooting. These logs do not use cookies. They are explained in our Privacy Policy.

Our fonts, images, videos, the lighting files for the 3D product views and the product catalogue PDF are all served from our own website, so browsing it does not load anything from other companies. Only two features involve another service, and only when you use them:

WhatsApp

The WhatsApp buttons and links on this website open WhatsApp, which is operated by Meta. Nothing is shared with WhatsApp unless you click one of them. Once you do, WhatsApp’s own privacy policy and cookie practices apply.

Your email program

After you submit the contact form or the quote form, your own email program opens with a prefilled message to info@hyarc.in. If you choose to send it, your email provider handles it under its own terms and privacy policy.

You are in control of what your browser stores. In most browsers you can:

• see, block or delete cookies, for all websites or only for www.hyarc.in;
• clear “cookies and site data” for this website, which also removes the local storage item that remembers your theme;
• close the browser tab to clear session storage, which happens automatically; and
• use a private or incognito window, which deletes cookies and storage when you close it.

These settings are usually found under Privacy or Security in your browser. For help, see:

• Google Chrome
• Microsoft Edge
• Mozilla Firefox
• Apple Safari

What happens if you block or clear them

• The public website, including all forms and the catalogue download, works as normal.
• The website will forget your theme choice and open in the light theme.
• The WhatsApp chat pop-up may appear again after you have closed it.
• HYARC staff will not be able to sign in to the administration area without the session cookie.

We have no analytics or marketing cookies today. If we decide to add any in future, for example to understand how visitors use the website, we will:

• update this policy first, listing each new cookie, who sets it and what it is for;
• where the law requires it, ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookie, with a clear choice to accept or refuse; and
• let you change your mind later as easily as you gave your consent.

We may update this policy when we change how the website works or when the law changes. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. Please check this page from time to time.
