1. About this policy

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies are used on hoc-trade.com (the "Website"), why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

The Website is operated by Hoc-Trade Technology Pte. Ltd. ("Hoc-Trade", "we", "us", or "our"), a company registered in Singapore. For details on how we handle personal data more broadly, please see our Privacy Policy.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit. They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information, such as your preferences or consent choices. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by us) or "third-party" (set by another service we use, such as an analytics provider).

3. How we use cookies

We use a small number of cookies on the Website. Our cookies fall into two categories: strictly necessary cookies that the site needs to function, and analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it. We do not use any advertising or marketing cookies.
