Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 14 April 2025 · Halcyon Bureau Co., Ltd.
This policy explains what cookies are, how Halcyon Bureau uses them on our website at halcyonbad.pro, and what choices you have. We aim to be clear and direct about our practices. If you have questions, please write to us at [email protected].
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators about how their site is being used.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or access other files on your device. They contain only the information placed in them by the website, and can only be read by the website that set them.
Related technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as web beacons (small transparent images that record when a page is loaded) and local storage. These are used for the same purposes as cookies and are subject to the same controls.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for three distinct purposes, each described below. Only essential cookies are set without your consent; all others require your acceptance via our cookie consent tool.
Essential cookies Essential
These cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly and cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take — such as submitting an enquiry form or recording your cookie preferences. You can configure your browser to block these cookies, but some parts of the website may not function as intended if you do.
Analytics cookies Analytics
Where you have provided consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website — which pages are viewed most frequently, how visitors navigate between pages, and general geographic patterns. This data is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors. We use this information to improve the structure and content of our website over time.
Functional cookies Functional
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made — such as your language preference or whether you have previously dismissed a notification — to provide a more consistent experience on return visits. These cookies do not track your activity across other websites.

4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third parties whose services we use. These include:
- Google Analytics — used with your consent to understand aggregate website usage. Google's use of this data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google Maps — our website includes an embedded map to display our Bangkok office location. Google may set cookies associated with this embed when you interact with the map.
We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or to track you across other websites. We have no relationship with advertising networks through this website.
5. Your Choices
You have several options for controlling how cookies are used on your device:
Cookie consent tool
When you first visit our website, a consent notice will appear allowing you to accept or decline optional cookies. You may change your choice at any time by clearing the hb_cookie_consent entry from your browser's local storage, which will cause the consent notice to appear again on your next visit.
Browser settings
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings. You can also configure your browser to block all cookies, though this may affect the functionality of this and other websites. Guidance for common browsers:
Opt-out from analytics
If you wish to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits across all websites, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy when we change the cookies on our website or when legal requirements change. The current version will always be available on this page, with the "Last Updated" date shown at the top. Where changes are material, we will update the consent notice accordingly so you have the opportunity to review and re-confirm your preferences.
