Cookie Policy
Last updated: 1 May 2025 · Effective date: 1 May 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Heirloom Path uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on this website. It is read alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers the broader handling of personal data.
We use cookies in a narrow and considered way. We do not place unnecessary tracking cookies, and we do not pass your data to advertising networks. This page tells you precisely what is on your device and why.
Questions about this policy may be directed to [email protected].
1. What Are Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your browser or device when you visit. Cookies allow the site to remember information about your visit — for example, whether you have already acknowledged a notice — so the site works properly and can be improved over time.
Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot access other files stored on your device. They can be read only by the domain that set them, unless they are third-party cookies placed by an external service you have consented to.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We group cookies into three categories based on their purpose.
2a. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be disabled through this notice, as the site could not operate reliably without them. They do not store any personally identifiable information.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| hp_cookie_consent | Records whether you have acknowledged the cookie notice, so it is not shown on every page load. | 12 months |
| PHPSESSID | Standard PHP session identifier. Used to maintain state during your current browsing session. Deleted when you close your browser. | Session |
2b. Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use this site — which pages attract the most attention, how long visits last, and where visitors come from. This information is collected in aggregate and anonymised form. We use it solely to improve the content and structure of the site; we do not use it to identify individuals.
Analytics cookies are placed only with your consent. If you decline, no analytics cookies are set and your visit is not counted.
| Cookie name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique visitors. Stores an anonymised identifier. | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Maintains session state for GA4 measurement. | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishes users within a 24-hour window. | 24 hours |
2c. Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow the site to remember choices you have made — such as your preferred language or a saved scroll position — so you do not have to repeat those choices on each visit. At present, we use localStorage (a browser storage mechanism similar in function to cookies) for one preference item: your acknowledgement of the site notice. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
3. Third-Party Cookies
When analytics cookies are active, Google Analytics places cookies on your device under the google.com domain. Google's collection and use of data via these cookies is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. We have configured Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled, which means your full IP address is not stored by Google.
We do not use cookies from advertising networks, social media platforms, or data brokers. No cookie placed on this site transmits your personal data to any party for marketing or profiling purposes.
4. Your Choices
When you first visit this website, a notice appears at the bottom of the page. You may accept or decline optional (analytics and preference) cookies at that point. Your choice is stored in your browser's localStorage under the key hp_cookie_consent.
You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage or cookies for this domain, then reloading the page — the notice will reappear and you may make a fresh choice.
You may also manage cookies directly through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect basic site functionality. Blocking analytics cookies has no effect on the content or services available to you.
5. Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal to websites. We respect DNT signals: when a DNT signal is detected, we do not activate analytics cookies regardless of your consent preference.
6. Cookies and Children
Our services are directed at adults. We do not knowingly place cookies on devices used by persons under the age of 20, in accordance with Thai personal data law. If you believe a minor has interacted with this site in a way that has resulted in cookies being set, please contact us at [email protected] and we will address the matter promptly.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will also be noted in the cookie notice on the home page so that returning visitors are made aware.
We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the site after any revision constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
