Cookies Policy
1. Introduction
This Cookies Policy explains how The Heeren (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at www.heeren.com.sg (the “Website”). This policy outlines what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites function properly, operate more efficiently, and provide a seamless browsing experience. Cookies help us recognize your device and remember your preferences for future visits.
3. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate securely and correctly. Other cookies enable us to remember your preferences and enhance your overall user experience on our website.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
Because our digital infrastructure and plugins may evolve over time, we categorize the cookies we use into the following general types rather than listing specific internal file names:
Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for you to browse the website and use its core features. Without these cookies, basic functions such as secure network routing, page navigation, and responsive design layouts cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing.
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make while browsing (such as dismissing a pop-up notice or selecting a specific viewing format) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.
Performance and Analytics Cookies: We may use generalized, privacy-focused tracking technologies to collect basic, aggregated information about how visitors use our website (for example, identifying broken links or measuring page load speeds). Note: we do not utilize google analytics or similar intrusive third-party tracking networks for this purpose. The data collected is completely anonymous and used solely to improve the website’s structural performance.
Third-Party Cookies: If our website features embedded content or functional widgets from trusted third parties (such as external maps or video players), those third parties may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control these external cookies, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of those specific third-party providers.
5. How to Manage Your Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by modifying your internet browser settings.
Browser Settings: Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser controls to decline them if you prefer. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website, though your access to certain visual features or functional areas may be slightly restricted. Because the method for refusing cookies varies from browser to browser, please consult your specific browser’s “Help” menu for instructions on how to clear or block cookies.
6. Updates to This Cookies Policy
We reserve the right to update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our technical operations, or for other legal and regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
