How we use cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them.
Last updated: 1 September 2026
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember your choices, and understand how it is used. We also use similar technologies such as browser local storage. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
When you first visit HalalKnot you are shown a cookie banner. Strictly necessary cookies are always on because the service cannot function without them. Analytics only loads if you select Accept — if you Decline, no analytics cookies or scripts are loaded. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser storage for this site, which will show the banner again.
