Cookie Policy

Last updated: October 21, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Al Baraka International (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on albarkainternational.com (the “Website”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1.What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device when you visit it. They help the site work properly, remember your choices and understand how visitors use it. Cookies set by us are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other companies, such as Google, are called third-party cookies.

2.How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes.

Essential cookies

These are needed for the Website to work and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set when you do something such as log in to your account or use your wishlist.

• Login and account cookies: keep you signed in to your account and protect it. Typical names begin with wordpress_logged_in and wordpress_sec.
• Session and shop cookies: keep your session, cart and wishlist working. Typical names include wp_woocommerce_session, woocommerce_cart_hash and woocommerce_items_in_cart.
• Preference cookies: remember settings such as your browsing choices on the Website. A typical name is wp-settings.

Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the Website, for example which pages are most popular and how long people stay. These cookies collect information such as your IP address, device and browser type, pages visited and approximate location. Typical names are _ga and _ga_ followed by an identifier, and _gid. This information is sent to and stored by Google, and we use it only to improve the Website. It is not used to identify you personally.

Third-party services and links

When you tap “Order on WhatsApp” or follow a link to a social media page, you leave our Website and go to a service run by someone else. That service may set its own cookies and has its own policies, which we do not control.

3.Cookies We Do Not Use

We do not use cookies to sell your personal information, and we do not use cookies to take payments, because orders on our Website are placed through WhatsApp.

4.How Long Cookies Last

• Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period, from a few hours to a couple of years, or until you delete them. For example, Google Analytics cookies typically last from 24 hours to 2 years.

5.Managing and Deleting Cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

• Browser settings: most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies. The steps differ by browser, so look in your browser’s settings or help section under “cookies” or “privacy”.
• Google Analytics opt-out: you can stop Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Private browsing: using your browser’s private or incognito mode limits how long cookies are stored.

Please note that blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the Website from working properly, including logging in, saving your wishlist and using your account.

6.Other Tracking Technologies

Besides cookies, websites can use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels and local storage to remember information or measure activity. Where we use them, they serve the same purposes described in this policy.

7.Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we start using new tools. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it last changed. Continued use of the Website after an update means you accept the revised policy.
