Cookies Policy
This policy explains how eTeachers.pk uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can manage your preferences.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to understand how visitors use the site. We may also use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, and pixels (tracking pixels or web beacons) for similar purposes. In this policy we use "cookies" to refer to cookies and these similar technologies where relevant.
2. Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep you signed in: So you don’t have to log in every time you visit.
- Remember your preferences: Such as language, region, or display settings.
- Secure the platform: To help prevent fraud and protect your account (e.g. session and security tokens).
- Understand usage: To see how the site is used (e.g. which pages are visited, errors) so we can improve the service.
3. Types of cookies we use
Essential cookies
These are necessary for the website to function. They enable core features such as logging in, session management, security, and load balancing. You cannot opt out of these cookies without affecting how the site works (for example, you may not be able to stay logged in).
Functional cookies
These remember choices you make (e.g. language, filters, layout) to give you a more personalised experience. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages.
Analytics and performance cookies
These help us understand how visitors use the site (e.g. number of visitors, pages viewed, bounce rate). The data is generally aggregated and anonymised. We use this information to improve the Platform. We do not use cookies to sell your data to third parties for advertising purposes.
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages (e.g. analytics providers, embedded content). These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies. We do not control these cookies. We encourage you to review the policies of these services if you wish to understand or limit their use.
5. Your choices and how to manage cookies
You can control and/or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View and delete existing cookies.
- Block all or certain cookies (e.g. block third-party cookies only).
If you block or delete essential cookies, parts of the site may not work properly (for example, you may be logged out or unable to access certain features). For more information, see your browser’s help section (e.g. "Cookies", "Privacy", or "Security" settings). You can also visit aboutcookies.org for general guidance on managing cookies.
6. Duration of cookies
Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (e.g. days, months) or until you delete them. The duration depends on the type of cookie and its purpose (e.g. keeping you logged in for a set time).
7. Updates
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in law. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the Platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
