Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites function efficiently and securely. They allow us to remember your login status, protect your account, and improve overall site performance.

Most of our cookies are essential to how HalalSpark works. The one exception is an optional Meta advertising cookie, used only on our ad landing pages and sign-up page, and only if you choose Allow (see section 5).

We use cookies to:

• Keep you logged in securely
• Enable account authentication and session management
• Prevent fraud and protect your account
• Remember certain preferences (like dashboard view, and your answer to our cookie question)
• Only if you agree: see which of our own Facebook and Instagram ads led you to sign up

"Apart from the optional Meta cookie described below, we don't use cookies for targeted advertising, analytics or cross-site tracking."

Any other optional cookies we introduce in future will likewise only be used with your explicit consent and clear notice.

We rely on the following third-party services for essential platform functionality:

• Stripe – used for secure payments and fraud prevention
• Supabase – used for authentication and session handling
• Vercel – used for hosting and site optimisation

"These third-party services are essential for our platform to operate safely and effectively. None of them are used for marketing or profiling."

Meta Pixel (optional)

On our ad landing pages and our sign-up page, we ask whether you're happy for us to use a Meta cookie. If you choose Allow, Meta's Pixel tells Meta (the company behind Facebook and Instagram) when you view those pages and when you create an account, so we can see which of our ads work.

We don't send Meta your name, email address or any other account details. Meta's Pixel does receive the technical details any website request carries, such as your IP address and browser type. If you choose No thanks, or don't answer, the Pixel never loads and nothing is sent to Meta. It is never used anywhere else on HalalSpark, including your dashboard.

Meta handles this data under its own privacy policy.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings:

• View, block, or delete existing cookies
• Clear cache or cookies at any time

Note: Blocking essential cookies may affect login or dashboard functionality.

Changing your mind about the Meta cookie: select "Cookie settings" at the bottom of any of our ad landing pages or the sign-up page, and choose No thanks. We stop sending anything to Meta and delete the Meta cookies (_fbp and _fbc) from your browser. You can choose Allow again the same way.

You can adjust cookie settings in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and other browsers. See your browser's help section for detailed instructions.

Retention periods are reviewed regularly to ensure they remain necessary and compliant.

• Updates reflected with "Last Updated" date at top
• Major changes will be announced via dashboard or email
• Archive of previous versions kept internally for compliance

"In keeping with Islamic ethics of Amanah (trust) and Sidq (honesty), we are transparent about how technology is used. HalalSpark believes users deserve full clarity — we only use what's essential for your security and smooth experience."
