Cookie Policy
Transparency, trust, and clarity for the hashiRun community.
This Cookie Policy explains how HashiRun (“HashiRun,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you access or use our website, applications, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. By continuing to use HashiRun, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies as described in this policy, unless you choose to disable them through your browser or device settings.
Cookies play an important role in enabling core functionality, improving user experience, and helping us understand how the Service is used so we can continue to improve it for the global running community.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognize your device and store certain information about your preferences, actions, or interactions.
Cookies may be “session cookies,” which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent cookies,” which remain on your device until they expire or are deleted manually.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, local storage, and device identifiers. For simplicity, all such technologies are referred to as “cookies” in this policy.
2. Why HashiRun Uses Cookies
HashiRun uses cookies to ensure the Service functions correctly, securely, and efficiently. Without certain cookies, key features of the platform would not work as intended.
Cookies help us:
- Authenticate users and maintain secure login sessions
- Remember user preferences and settings
- Enable core features such as account access and navigation
- Analyze how users interact with the Service
- Improve performance, reliability, and usability
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security threats
We do not use cookies to sell your personal data or to track you across unrelated websites for advertising purposes.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
HashiRun uses several categories of cookies, each serving a specific purpose.
3.1 Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the basic operation of the Service. These cookies enable core functionality such as logging in, navigating between pages, and accessing secure areas of the platform.
Without these cookies, HashiRun cannot function properly. Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they cannot be disabled through our systems.
3.2 Preference and Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the Service to remember choices you make, such as language preferences, display settings, or previously entered information, in order to provide a more personalized experience.
Functional cookies help ensure that the platform behaves consistently according to your preferences across sessions.
3.3 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies collect information about how users interact with the Service, such as which pages are visited most frequently, how long users stay on pages, and whether users encounter errors.
This information is aggregated and used to understand usage patterns, diagnose technical issues, and improve the overall performance and design of HashiRun.
We may use third-party analytics tools to assist with these insights, but we do not allow analytics data to be used to personally identify individual users.
3.4 Security Cookies
Security cookies help protect user accounts and the Service by detecting suspicious activity, preventing unauthorized access, and mitigating potential security risks.
These cookies are essential for maintaining the integrity and safety of the HashiRun platform.
4. Third-Party Cookies and Services
HashiRun may allow trusted third-party service providers to place cookies on your device in order to support the operation of the Service.
These providers may include:
- Hosting and infrastructure providers
- Analytics and performance monitoring services
- Email delivery and communication tools
- Security and fraud prevention services
Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective providers. HashiRun does not control how third parties use their cookies and encourages you to review their policies for more information.
5. Cookie Duration
Cookies used by HashiRun may remain on your device for different periods of time, depending on their purpose.
Some cookies expire automatically when you close your browser, while others remain stored for a longer duration in order to remember preferences or improve future interactions with the Service.
We retain cookie data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy.
6. Managing and Controlling Cookies

7. Legal Basis for Use of Cookies
Where required by applicable law, HashiRun relies on your consent to use certain categories of cookies. In other cases, cookies are used because they are necessary for the performance of the Service or our legitimate interests in operating and improving the platform.
Depending on your location, you may have additional rights regarding the use of cookies, including the right to withdraw consent.
8. International Users
HashiRun operates globally, and cookies may be set or processed in countries other than your country of residence.
We take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place when information is transferred across borders, in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
9. Changes to This Cookie Policy
