Cookie Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Abbara Sounds, Inc. (“Abbara,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use https://abbarasounds.com and any subdomains of abbarasounds.com that are owned or controlled by Abbara (collectively, the “Site”).

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy located at https://abbarasounds.com/policies/privacy-policy. Capitalized terms not defined in this Cookie Policy have the meanings given in our Privacy Policy or the Site’s Terms and Conditions.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your browser or device by websites you visit. Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions. Cookies can help websites function securely, improve user experience, and provide information to website owners about how the site is used.

Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you by name (like your name), but they may contain identifiers that can be linked to you or your account.

2. Similar Technologies (Collectively, “Cookies”)

In addition to browser cookies, we may use similar technologies, including:

Pixels/Tags/Web Beacons: small code snippets that help track whether pages are viewed and whether actions are taken (for example, whether a user completes a signup).

SDKs (Software Development Kits): tools that may collect device and usage data in mobile or embedded environments.

Local Storage / Session Storage: browser technologies that store information on your device (often used to remember settings or support performance).

Server-side identifiers and log data: used to operate, secure, and maintain the Site.

For convenience, we refer to these technologies collectively as “cookies” in this Cookie Policy, unless the context requires otherwise.

3. Cookie Lifespan: Session vs. Persistent Cookies

We may use both:

Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser. These are commonly used to keep you logged in while you navigate the Site.

Persistent cookies: remain on your device until they expire or you delete them. These are commonly used to remember preferences and recognize returning visitors.

4. Categories of Cookies We Use

We may use the following categories of cookies:

4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. Without these cookies, certain features (such as logging in and maintaining security) may not work.

Strictly necessary cookies may be used to:

enable core Site functions (page navigation, load balancing, form submissions);

authenticate users and maintain sessions;

protect your account and help prevent fraudulent activity; and

support security features (including detecting abnormal traffic or repeated failed logins).

4.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features and personalization.

Functional cookies may be used to:

remember language preferences, region, or other settings;

keep you logged in (where not strictly necessary); and

remember user interface preferences.

4.3 Performance / Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site so we can improve it. Analytics data is typically aggregated and used to measure activity patterns and performance.

Performance/analytics cookies may be used to:

measure page views, session duration, and navigation paths;

understand which pages and features are most useful;

detect and diagnose technical issues; and

improve Site design, content, and features.

We may use first-party analytics tools and/or third-party analytics providers.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies (If Used)

Advertising/targeting cookies may be set through our Site by us and/or our advertising partners. They may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites, or to measure advertising effectiveness.

If used, advertising/targeting cookies may be used to:

deliver ads that may be more relevant to you;

limit the number of times you see an ad;

measure and attribute conversions (e.g., whether you sign up after clicking an ad); and

help prevent ad fraud.

5. First-Party Cookies vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by the Site (abbarasounds.com or its subdomains).

Third-party cookies are set by companies that provide services we use (such as analytics, hosting, security, customer support, video players, embedded content, or advertising services).

Third-party cookies are governed by the third party’s own policies and may enable the third party to collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites.

6. Specific Cookie Purposes (Examples)

Depending on how you interact with the Site, cookies may be used for purposes such as:

Account authentication: recognizing that you are logged in so you can access account-only areas.

Security and fraud prevention: detecting suspicious behavior and protecting accounts.

Preference storage: remembering site settings (for example, audio preview settings or interface preferences).

Transaction flow support: helping ensure checkout steps function properly and prevent duplicate submissions.

Usage analytics: understanding which pages are visited and which features are used to improve the Site.

Marketing measurement: tracking whether marketing campaigns lead to signups or purchases (if applicable).

7. Embedded Content and Integrations

The Site may include embedded content or integrations (for example, embedded audio players, video players, social media widgets, or support chat tools). These features may place third-party cookies or use similar technologies even if you do not interact with them.

Examples include:

embedded media players that remember playback preferences;

social media buttons that track whether content is shared; and

customer support chat tools that maintain session context.

8. Cookie Management and Your Choices

You can control cookies in several ways. Note that disabling cookies may affect Site functionality, including the ability to log in or complete transactions.

8.1 Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to:

view cookies stored on your device;

delete cookies; and

block cookies generally or block third-party cookies.

Browser settings differ by browser and device. You can consult your browser’s help pages for instructions.

8.2 Device Settings

Some mobile devices provide additional controls over tracking and advertising (for example, limiting ad tracking). These controls vary by device manufacturer and operating system.

8.3 Cookie Banner / Consent Manager (If Available)

If we provide a cookie banner or consent manager, you can use it to manage preferences for certain categories of cookies (for example, analytics and advertising), where required by law or offered by us.

8.4 Industry Opt-Out Tools (Advertising)

If we use advertising/targeting cookies, you may be able to opt out using:

Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): https://optout.aboutads.info/

Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): https://optout.networkadvertising.org/

Opt-outs are typically browser- and device-specific and may require you to repeat the opt-out if you clear cookies or use a different browser/device.

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers transmit “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding to DNT signals, we do not currently respond to DNT signals in a uniform way.

10. Cookie List (Template)

We may maintain a list of cookies used on the Site. The specific cookies may change over time as we update the Site and our vendors.

You may populate and publish a cookie list such as the following:
