Cookie Usage Policy
How we use tracking technologies to improve your experience on hamagnarievira.com
We believe in being upfront about how we collect and use information when you visit our site. This page explains what tracking technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
Last thing we want is to surprise you with hidden data collection. So here's the full picture of what happens when you browse hamagnarievira.com.

What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about your visit.
When you come back to our site, these files tell us things like your preferences, which pages you visited before, or whether you're already logged in. Some cookies disappear when you close your browser. Others stick around for weeks or months.
We also use similar technologies like web beacons and pixels that track how you interact with our content. They work alongside cookies to give us a complete picture of how people use the site.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site working. Without them, you couldn't log in, navigate between pages properly, or access secure areas. We don't give you the option to disable these because the site literally won't function without them.
- Session management and authentication
- Security features and fraud prevention
- Load balancing across our servers
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences. Things like your preferred language, currency display, or which reports you've saved. They make your experience more personalized without us needing to ask the same questions every time you visit.
- Remembering display preferences and settings
- Storing saved reports and dashboard layouts
- Keeping track of your notification preferences
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors use our site. Which pages get the most traffic? Where do people get stuck? What features do investors actually use? This data helps us make the site better for everyone.
- Tracking page views and navigation patterns
- Measuring how long people spend on different sections
- Identifying which features are most valuable to users
- Understanding which devices and browsers people use
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across websites to show you relevant content and measure campaign effectiveness. If you've been researching investment strategies and then see our ad about portfolio analysis tools, that's these cookies at work.
- Delivering targeted advertising based on your interests
- Measuring effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
- Preventing you from seeing the same ad repeatedly
- Building profiles of user interests and behaviors
You can reject analytics and marketing cookies using the button above. However, essential cookies cannot be disabled as they're necessary for the site to function properly. Functional cookies will also be removed when you reject non-essential tracking.
How This Benefits Your Experience
Here's what actually happens when we use cookies. When you save a custom dashboard layout, functional cookies remember your preferences so it looks the same next time you log in. You don't have to rebuild everything from scratch.
Analytics cookies tell us if people are struggling to find certain features. In early 2025, we noticed investors were having trouble locating our portfolio comparison tool. The data showed most people gave up after checking three pages. So we moved it to a more prominent location and added it to the main navigation.
Marketing cookies help us show you content that's actually relevant. If you've been reading our articles about dividend strategies, you'll see information about dividend tracking tools rather than unrelated features you don't care about.
Without cookies, every visit would feel like your first time here. You'd need to set preferences repeatedly, we couldn't improve features based on usage data, and you'd see random content instead of personalized recommendations.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for controlling cookies on hamagnarievira.com. The easiest method is clicking the rejection button at the top of this page. This removes all non-essential cookies and prevents new ones from being set.
Browser-Level Cookie Controls
All modern browsers let you manage cookies through their settings. Here's where to find these controls:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and Other Site Data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and Site Permissions → Manage and Delete Cookies
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies will affect how the site works. You might not be able to log in, save preferences, or access certain features.
Third-Party Services and Tracking
We work with external services that also use cookies. Our analytics platform tracks site usage patterns. Advertising networks measure campaign performance. These services have their own privacy policies that govern how they use your data.
Some of these third parties operate across multiple websites, building profiles of user behavior over time. If you want to opt out of this cross-site tracking, you can use browser extensions or privacy tools designed specifically for that purpose.
We don't share your personal information with these services beyond what's necessary for them to function. They get anonymized usage data and aggregated statistics, not your name, email, or financial details.
How Long We Keep Cookie Data
Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stick around longer, typically between 30 days and 2 years depending on their purpose.
Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after 90 days. We keep the statistics but remove any connection to individual users. Marketing cookies usually expire after 90 days, though some advertising networks use longer retention periods.
When you reject cookies through our system, we set a preference cookie that lasts for 12 months. This tells our site not to set non-essential cookies during your future visits.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy when we add new tracking technologies or change how we use existing ones. Major changes get announced through email to registered users. Minor updates just get posted here with a new date.
If you have questions about our cookie practices or want more details about specific tracking technologies, get in touch with our team. We're happy to explain how things work behind the scenes.
This policy was last updated: March 2025
