Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to site operators. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device. They are uniquely assigned to your browser and can only be read by the web server that issued them.

Yes. Like most websites, hq-switch.org uses cookies to operate core site functions, improve your experience, and understand how visitors use our content. Some cookies are set by us directly; others are set by third-party services we use to operate the site. By continuing to use this site, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

We use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly necessary cookies — These cookies are required for the site to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, form submission, and security. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the site cannot function properly without them.

Functional cookies — These cookies remember your preferences and settings to improve your experience. For example, they may remember your language preference or whether you have previously dismissed a notice.

Third-party cookies — Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. These are described in detail below.

The following third-party services operating on hq-switch.org may set cookies on your device:
