Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 2025  |  Applies to: jafunu.info

1. Introduction

Welcome to Jafunu (legally operating as Jafunu), accessible at jafunu.info. We are committed to transparency about how we collect and use data relating to you. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use on our website, why we use them, and how you can control them.

This policy applies to all pages and services offered through jafunu.info and should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. By continuing to browse our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. Where we are required by applicable Canadian law to obtain your consent before placing certain cookies, we will do so through our cookie consent mechanism described in Section 7 below.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided in Section 11.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Jafunu) are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as analytics, advertising, and interactive content.

Cookies generally do not contain any information that directly identifies you as an individual, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies can remain on your device for different periods of time. Some cookies are session cookies, meaning they exist only while your browser is open and are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Other cookies are persistent cookies, meaning they survive after your browser is closed and can be used by the website to recognize your device when you open your browser again.

In addition to traditional cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage objects, and scripts that function in a similar manner to cookies. For the purposes of this policy, we refer to all such technologies collectively as "cookies."

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies we use into the following types:

3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for you to browse our website and use its features. Without these cookies, services such as secure page navigation, form submission, and access to protected areas of the website would not be possible. These cookies do not gather any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website services you request, they cannot be disabled through our cookie consent tool. However, you can set your browser to block these cookies, but please be aware that some parts of the website may not function correctly as a result.

Examples of essential cookie functions include: maintaining your session as you move from page to page, storing security tokens to protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks, and remembering items you have placed in a shopping cart or form data you have entered.

3.2 Functional / Preference Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your language preference or region) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of web pages.

Notably, functional cookies include cookies used to store your cookie consent preferences. When you interact with our cookie consent banner and make a choice about which categories of cookies you accept or decline, we set a cookie to remember your decision so that you are not asked again on every visit.

3.3 Analytics / Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, how long they spend on each page, and whether they encounter any error messages. This information helps us to understand how our website is being used and to improve its design and functionality.

All information collected by analytics cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. Analytics cookies do not collect information that identifies individual visitors. We may use third-party analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) to assist us with this analysis. Where we do so, those third-party providers may place their own cookies on your device, subject to their own privacy and cookie policies.

3.4 Marketing / Targeting Cookies

At present, Jafunu does not use marketing or advertising cookies for the purpose of serving targeted advertisements to visitors. If this changes in the future, this Cookie Policy will be updated accordingly and, where required, your fresh consent will be sought.

4. Detailed Cookie Table

The table below provides detailed information about the specific cookies we currently use on jafunu.info:

Note: The cookies listed above may be updated as our website evolves. Please check this page periodically for the most current list.

5. Third-Party Cookies and Resources

Our website may load resources from third-party services. When these resources are loaded, those third-party services may place their own cookies on your device. We do not control the use of third-party cookies — you should consult the respective privacy and cookie policies of these third parties to understand how they use your data.

Third-party services we may use include:

• Google Fonts: We may use Google Fonts to display typography on our website. When Google Fonts are loaded, Google's servers may log your IP address and the fonts requested. Google's privacy policy applies to any data collected by Google Fonts. You can review Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
• Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): We may use CDNs to serve static assets such as JavaScript libraries, stylesheets, and images efficiently. CDN providers may collect limited technical data such as IP addresses and request headers for the purpose of routing and security.
• Google Analytics: As described above, we may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymized information about website traffic and usage patterns. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services whose content appears on our website.

6. Impact of Disabling Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or refuse cookies. However, please be aware that disabling certain types of cookies may affect your experience on our website:

• Essential cookies: If you disable essential cookies, significant portions of our website may not function correctly. You may be unable to submit forms, maintain a logged-in session, or access secure areas of the site.
• Functional cookies: Disabling functional cookies means that your preferences (such as language settings) will not be remembered between visits. You may need to re-enter your preferences every time you visit.
• Analytics cookies: Disabling analytics cookies will prevent us from collecting aggregated data about how you use our site, but your browsing experience should remain largely unaffected.

We always endeavour to design our website so that it remains as accessible and usable as possible even when cookies are disabled, but we cannot guarantee full functionality in all cases.

7. Cookie Consent Mechanism

In accordance with applicable Canadian privacy legislation — including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, where applicable, provincial privacy laws such as Quebec's Law 25 (Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector) — we seek your informed consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

When you first visit jafunu.info, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that:

• Clearly identifies the categories of cookies we use;
• Provides you with the option to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences;
• Links to this full Cookie Policy for further information;
• Records your choice and stores it in a first-party functional cookie (cookie_consent) so that you are not prompted again during the same consent period.

Your consent is valid for a period of 12 months from the date it is given, after which you will be prompted to confirm your preferences again. You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by accessing our cookie preference settings (available via the link in our website footer) or by clearing the relevant cookies from your browser as described in Section 8 below.

Please note that strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent and will always be active, as they are essential for the operation of the website.

9. Canadian Privacy Law Compliance

Jafunu is a Canadian company and takes its obligations under Canadian privacy law seriously. Our use of cookies is governed primarily by the following legislation:

• Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA): Canada's federal private-sector privacy law, which requires organizations to obtain meaningful consent from individuals before collecting, using, or disclosing their personal information. Where cookies involve the collection of personal information (such as IP addresses or browsing histories linked to identifiable individuals), we ensure that we obtain appropriate consent.
• Quebec Law 25 (Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector): Quebec's updated privacy legislation, which came into full force in September 2023, introduces stricter requirements — including explicit opt-in consent for the collection of personal information through technological means (such as cookies) for profiling or tracking purposes. Where our website is accessed by individuals in Quebec, we comply with these additional requirements.
• Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL): While CASL primarily governs commercial electronic messages, it also addresses the installation of computer programs (including certain cookies and tracking software) on users' devices without consent. We ensure that our use of cookies complies with CASL's requirements where applicable.

We are committed to upholding the privacy rights of all individuals who visit our website, regardless of their province of residence. Our cookie consent mechanism is designed to meet the highest applicable standard of consent required under Canadian law.

10. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. When we make material changes to this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you through our website (for example, via our cookie consent banner or a notice on the homepage).

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Your continued use of our website after any changes to this Cookie Policy are published will be deemed as your acknowledgment of the updated policy.

If the changes are significant and require fresh consent for non-essential cookies, we will present you with a new consent request through our cookie consent mechanism.

11. Contact Us
