Last Updated: August 22, 2025

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Nine Foods (“we”, “us”, and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://ninefoods.com.pk (“Website”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

2. What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Nine Foods) 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 (e.g., analytics, advertising, and social media features).

3. Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. For example, we use cookies to remember the items in your shopping cart.

4. What types of cookies do we use?

The specific types of first-party and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described below:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Website and to enable you to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas and shopping cart functionality. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our Website functions.
  • Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are. This helps us to customize and improve our Website for you. (Example: We may use Google Analytics to collect data on website traffic and user behavior.)
  • Functionality Cookies: These cookies are used to recognize you when you return to our Website. This enables us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name, and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
  • Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing and, in some cases, selecting advertisements that are based on your interests. We may use these to show you relevant products or offers on our site or on other sites. (Note: You should confirm if you use any remarketing or advertising services that would require this.)

5. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the service, deliver advertisements on and through the service, and so on. These may include:

  • Google Analytics: To analyze website usage.
  • Social Media Platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram): For sharing and integration purposes.
  • Payment Gateways: To securely process transactions.

Please note that we do not have control over these third-party cookies. You should review the cookie policies of these third-party websites for more information.
