This Cookie Policy explains how Covaya Properties (“Covaya,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.
We want your experience on our website to be transparent, secure, and easy to understand. This policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, the types of cookies that may be placed on your device, and how you can control your preferences. This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can store on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit them. Cookies allow websites to remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences, language selection, session information, or how you interact with different pages.
Some cookies exist only while your browser is open, while others may remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. Cookies can be:
First-Party Cookies
These are cookies placed directly by Covaya Properties through our website.
Third-Party Cookies
These are cookies placed by external service providers whose technologies or content may be integrated into our website. For example, third-party technologies may be used for analytics, maps, embedded media, security, advertising, or other website functionality.
2. Why We Use Cookies
Covaya Properties may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep our website functioning correctly
- Remember your preferences and cookie consent choices
- Improve website security and identify technical issues
- Understand how visitors use our website
- Improve navigation and website performance
- Analyse which pages, properties, and projects attract the most interest
- Measure the effectiveness of our marketing
- Provide relevant advertising where you have consented
- Enable third-party content or website features
- Improve the overall user experience
Not every visitor will receive every type of cookie. The cookies used may depend on the pages you visit, the features you interact with, your browser settings, your location, and the consent choices you make.
3. Types of Cookies We May Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the basic operation, security, and functionality of our website. They may be used for purposes such as maintaining website sessions, protecting forms against abuse, maintaining security, remembering privacy preferences, and supporting server functions.
Because these cookies are necessary for the website to work properly, they may be placed without your consent where permitted by applicable law. Disabling them through your browser may cause parts of the website to stop functioning correctly.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies help provide additional features and remember choices you make while using our website. They may remember information such as preferred language, search preferences, previously selected filters, property browsing preferences, and regional settings.
These cookies help us provide a more personalised and convenient browsing experience. Where required by law, functional cookies will only be activated after you provide consent.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with Covaya’s website. They may collect information such as pages visited, time spent on pages, navigation paths, referral sources, general device information, approximate geographic region, and property pages viewed.
We use this information to understand website performance, identify popular content, and make our website more useful. Where analytics technologies involve non-essential cookies, they will be activated only after consent where required by applicable law.
Advertising and Marketing Cookies
With your consent, we may use advertising or marketing technologies to understand the effectiveness of our campaigns and provide advertising that may be more relevant to your interests.
These technologies may help us measure campaign performance, track conversions, build aggregated audiences, limit repetitive advertising, and show relevant property advertisements. Third-party advertising providers may also use information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own policies. Marketing cookies will not be activated before consent where consent is legally required.
4. Third-Party Content and Services
Some areas of our website may include technologies, content, or services provided by third parties, such as interactive maps, embedded videos, social media content, analytics services, advertising platforms, and property search technologies.
When you interact with third-party content, the relevant provider may place cookies or use similar technologies. These third parties operate according to their own privacy and cookie policies, and Covaya does not control how external providers manage their technologies. Where required, third-party content or tracking technologies will remain disabled until you provide the appropriate consent.
5. Session and Persistent Cookies
Session Cookies: Remain active only during your current browser session and are normally removed when you close your browser.
Persistent Cookies: Remain on your device after you close your browser and expire after a specified period unless you delete them earlier. The retention period depends on the purpose of each cookie and the provider.
6. Cookie Consent
When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner or preference tool. Depending on your location, you may accept all optional cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or select individual categories. Strictly necessary cookies remain active. We do not treat continued browsing as consent where applicable law requires an affirmative choice.
7. Changing or Withdrawing Your Consent
You can change your cookie preferences at any time. Where available, use the Cookie Settings option on our website to review and update your choices. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred beforehand.
8. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can view, delete, or block cookies. The process differs between browsers, so you should consult your browser’s help settings. Please remember that blocking all cookies may affect how Covaya’s website functions.
9. Similar Tracking Technologies
Cookies are not the only technology used. Covaya or our service providers may also use pixels, tags, web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies. Where these perform functions similar to non-essential cookies, we apply the same consent principles where required.
10. Property Enquiries and Cookie Data
Submitting a property enquiry or contacting us involves personal information (e.g., name, email, budget) separate from cookie data. The processing of personal information submitted directly to us is explained in our Privacy Policy.
11. International Visitors
Covaya Properties serves an international audience. Cookie and privacy requirements vary by location. Where applicable law requires prior consent before non-essential cookies are activated, we aim to obtain that consent through our management system.
12. How Long Do We Keep Cookie Information?
We aim to retain cookies and information generated through them only for as long as reasonably necessary for their stated purpose, subject to applicable legal requirements.
13. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this policy due to changes in our website, technologies, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
