Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 28 January 2026
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device — whether a computer, tablet, or mobile phone — when you visit. They allow the site to recognise your browser over time and remember certain information, such as your preferences or whether you have previously accepted a notice. Cookies are widely used across the internet and are a standard part of how modern websites function. They help us understand how visitors interact with our site so we can offer a more considered experience. You can control how cookies are stored and used through both this page and your browser settings.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable basic features such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and remembering your cookie consent choice. Without these cookies the website cannot operate as intended. Essential cookies do not collect personal data for marketing purposes. Because they are fundamental to site functionality, they cannot be disabled.
Examples: session management, security tokens, cookie consent status.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website by collecting information about pages visited, time spent on site, and general interaction patterns. This data is aggregated and anonymised, meaning it does not identify you personally. We use these insights to improve the structure, content, and usability of our website over time.
Examples: page view counts, session duration, referral sources.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites with the purpose of displaying relevant content and advertisements. They are typically set by third-party advertising networks with our permission. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you viewed, and the links you followed. We may use this information to make future communications more relevant to your interests.
Examples: ad personalisation, cross-site tracking, retargeting.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your language or region, and provide more personalised features. They may also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customisable elements of the website. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and they are unable to track your browsing activity on other websites.
Examples: language settings, display preferences, region selection.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these cookies and their use is governed by the respective third party's privacy policy. Third-party services that may set cookies when you visit our site include Google Analytics for website usage insights, social media platforms if share buttons or embedded content are present, and advertising networks that help measure the reach of our communications. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third parties for further detail on how they handle your data.
Cookie Duration
Cookies are classified by their lifespan into two categories. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted automatically when you close your browser — they are used to maintain your experience during a single browsing session, such as keeping you recognised as you navigate from page to page. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually. They are used to remember your preferences and actions across multiple visits. Most persistent cookies on our site have a lifespan of between 30 days and 12 months, depending on their purpose.
Your Cookie Preferences
Use the controls below to manage which categories of cookies you allow. Essential cookies are always active because they are needed for the website to work correctly. Changes you make here are saved to your browser and will be respected on future visits.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
In addition to the controls above, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Below are instructions for the most commonly used browsers. Please note that restricting cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on our website.
Open Chrome and select the three-dot menu in the upper right corner. Go to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Other Site Data. From here you can block third-party cookies, clear existing cookies, or set up exceptions for specific sites. You can also select "See all cookies and site data" to delete cookies from individual domains.
Open Firefox and click the menu button, then select Settings. Navigate to Privacy & Security. Under Enhanced Tracking Protection, you can choose Standard, Strict, or Custom protection levels. The Custom option lets you select which types of cookies and trackers to block. To clear cookies, scroll to Cookies and Site Data and click Clear Data.
On macOS, open Safari and go to Safari in the menu bar, then select Preferences. Click the Privacy tab. You can block all cookies or prevent cross-site tracking. To manage stored data, click Manage Website Data where you can remove cookies for individual sites. On iOS, go to Settings, then Safari, and look under Privacy & Security for similar options.
Open Edge and click the three-dot menu, then Settings. Select Cookies and Site Permissions, then Manage and Delete Cookies and Site Data. You can block third-party cookies, allow or block cookies from specific sites, and clear all existing cookies. Edge also offers tracking prevention levels — Basic, Balanced, and Strict — accessible from the Privacy, Search, and Services section.
For mobile browsers, cookie settings are typically found within the browser's settings or in the device's main settings under the browser application. Clearing cookies on mobile follows a similar process to desktop.
Your Rights
You have the right to withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time using the preference controls above. You can also clear cookies from your browser at any point. Please be aware that disabling certain cookies may affect the performance and usability of some website features — for example, preference cookies allow the site to remember your chosen settings between visits, and without them you may need to reconfigure those settings each time.
If you have questions about our use of cookies or would like further information, please contact us at privacy@orbynhk.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
