Introduction

This Cookie Notice explains how Gigue Inc. ("↬gigue", "gigue", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at gigue.ai and related services. This notice provides detailed information about the cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used.

Cookies can be "session cookies" (temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (cookies that remain on your device until they expire or you delete them).

How we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

These cookies are required for the operation of our website and services. They enable core functionality such as security, authentication, and basic website operations. These cookies do not track your activity on other websites.

Authentication and Session Management: We use JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and session cookies to authenticate users and maintain secure sessions. These cookies are essential for you to access your account and use our services securely. Without these cookies, we cannot provide you with secure access to your account or maintain your preferences during your session.

Security: We use cookies to detect and prevent security threats, authenticate users, and protect against fraudulent activity. These cookies help us identify unusual patterns that may indicate security issues.

Load Balancing: We use cookies to distribute traffic across our servers to ensure optimal performance and reliability of our services.

These essential cookies cannot be disabled if you want to use our services. They are set only in response to actions you take, such as logging in or filling in forms.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect information about:

  • Number of visitors to our website

  • Pages visited and time spent on each page

  • How visitors arrived at our website

  • Which links visitors click on

  • Browser type and device information

  • General geographic location (city or region level only, based on IP address)

Current Analytics Tools: We currently use standard web analytics tools to collect this information. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized where possible. We use this information solely to improve our website design, content, and user experience.

Our Commitment: We are actively working to transition to privacy-preserving analytics solutions that do not rely on third-party cookies or cross-site tracking. We are committed to minimizing data collection while still being able to improve our services.

Preference Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your language preference or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

Cookies we do NOT use

Advertising Cookies: We do not use cookies for advertising purposes. We do not participate in ad networks or use cookies to build advertising profiles.

Cross-Site Tracking: We do not use cookies to track your activity across other websites. Our cookies are limited to our own website and services.

Data Selling: We do not sell any data collected through cookies to third parties.

Social Media Tracking: While our website may include social media sharing buttons, we have configured these to minimize tracking. These buttons do not place cookies until you actively click on them.

Third-party cookies

We minimize the use of third-party cookies on our website. Any third-party cookies that may be set are limited to:

Analytics Services: We use analytics services that may set cookies to help us understand website usage. We have configured these services to respect user privacy to the maximum extent possible and have data processing agreements in place with these providers.

Authentication Services: If you choose to sign in using a third-party authentication service (such as Google or Microsoft), those services may set cookies according to their own privacy policies.

Payment Processing: If you make a purchase, our payment processors may set cookies to facilitate secure payment processing.

A current list of our third-party service providers is available at trust.gigue.ai.

How to control cookies

You have several options for controlling and managing cookies:

Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:

  • View what cookies are stored and delete them individually

  • Block third-party cookies

  • Block all cookies from specific websites

  • Block all cookies from being set

  • Delete all cookies when you close your browser

Please note that if you choose to block or delete essential cookies, you may not be able to access all or parts of our website, and some functionality will not work properly.

To learn how to manage cookies in your specific browser, please consult your browser's help documentation:

Browser Privacy Settings

Modern browsers offer privacy features that can help you control cookies and tracking:

  • Do Not Track (DNT): While we respect DNT signals, please note that there is currently no industry standard for how to respond to these signals. We are committed to honoring your privacy preferences as standards evolve.

  • Private/Incognito Mode: Using your browser in private or incognito mode will prevent cookies from being stored permanently on your device.

  • Third-Party Cookie Blocking: Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies while still allowing first-party cookies from the websites you visit.

Our Commitment to Cookie Minimization

We are committed to minimizing our reliance on cookies and tracking technologies. Our goals include:

  • Transitioning to privacy-preserving analytics solutions that do not require third-party cookies

  • Implementing server-side analytics where possible to reduce client-side tracking

  • Exploring cookieless authentication methods where technically feasible

  • Continuously evaluating our use of cookies to ensure we only use those that are necessary

We believe that privacy-respecting analytics and functionality are possible without extensive tracking, and we are actively working toward that goal.

Mobile applications

If you use our mobile applications, we may use technologies similar to cookies, such as device identifiers, for authentication and security purposes. These technologies are subject to the same privacy protections as our cookies, and the information collected is described in our Privacy Policy.
