Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 4, 2024
This Cookie Policy explains how domiguu ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit domiguu.com. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.
By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree, you may disable cookies through your browser settings or opt out using the methods described below.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website owners about how visitors use their site.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or install malware. They contain only data — a unique identifier, the name of the server that set the cookie, and an expiry date.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several categories of cookies on our website. Each serves a distinct purpose and has a different lifespan.
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. Without them, services such as logging in, accessing secure areas, or completing forms would not be possible. These cookies do not collect any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes and cannot be switched off in our systems.
2.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often and whether visitors receive error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is used solely to improve how our website works.
2.3 Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your language preference or region, and provide enhanced, more personalised features. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or commenting on content. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
2.4 Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to you and your interests. They may be used to deliver targeted advertising or to limit the number of times you see an advertisement. They also help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission.
2.5 Third-Party Cookies
In some cases, we use cookies provided by trusted third parties. Our website may use analytics services that use cookies to help us understand how you use the site and how we can improve your experience. These third parties may also combine information they collect from your use of our website with other information they have collected independently.

4. How Long Do Cookies Last
Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:
- Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are used to carry information from one page to another so you do not have to re-enter it.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.
5. Cookies Set by Third Parties
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control the setting of these cookies and you should check the relevant third-party websites for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.

These third parties may use cookies to track your online activity across multiple websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites.

6.3 Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, as no universal standard for this feature has been established. We will update this policy if that changes.
