Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 2, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Uchambuzi Mahiri uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website and dashboards. By continuing to browse or use our platform, you agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or other electronic device) when you visit our website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide a better user experience.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies primarily for strictly necessary operational purposes:

  • Authentication & Security (Essential):
    When you sign in using Google OAuth, we set secure, HTTP-only cookies to maintain your active session. These cookies are critical for verifying your identity on subsequent page loads and ensuring that accessing member-only dashboards is secure and seamless. Without these cookies, our login functionality simply would not work.
  • Navigation Preferences:
    We may utilize short-lived cookies to temporarily remember which page you were trying to access before being prompted to log in, allowing us to accurately redirect you back to your intended destination.

3. Third-Party Cookies (Power BI)

Our platform features embedded, interactive financial dashboards powered by Microsoft Power BI. When you view these dashboards, Microsoft may set its own third-party cookies or utilize tracking pixels.

These third-party cookies are governed by the Microsoft Privacy Statement. They are typically used by Microsoft to ensure the embedded reports render correctly, maintain session state within the iframe, and gather anonymous telemetry regarding the performance of the embed tool.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, please note that if you disable or restrict our essential authentication cookies, you will not be able to log in to your account or view the full member dashboards.

If you wish to block third-party cookies (such as those from Power BI), you may do so in your browser settings; however, this may prevent the interactive charts and data modules from loading correctly.

5. Contact Information

If you have any questions concerning our use of cookies, please contact us at: [email protected].
