Cookie Policy

This policy explains what cookies Deep Guard uses on its website, why we use them, and how you can control them.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits and to remember certain information about your session or preferences.

Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or install malware. They are a standard technology used by the vast majority of websites and can be managed or deleted through your browser settings at any time.

2. How we use cookies

Deep Guard uses only strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies required for the website to function correctly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are typically set in response to actions you take — such as navigating between pages or using interactive elements — and do not store any personally identifiable information.

We do not use analytics cookies, advertising or retargeting cookies, social media tracking cookies, or any third-party cookies that track your behaviour across websites. We do not use fingerprinting, pixel tracking, or any equivalent technology.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

The following categories of strictly necessary cookies may be set on your device when you use our website:

Session cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. These are used to maintain the state of interactive elements during your visit, such as form completion progress.

Security cookies: Short-lived cookies used to support security features, such as protection against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. These contain no personal data and are not used for tracking.

Preference cookies: Where you have made explicit choices that affect how the website displays — such as accepting a notice — we may store that preference to avoid presenting the same notice repeatedly.

4. Third-party services

Our website may link to third-party sites, including news publications, blockchain explorers, and code repositories referenced in our security intelligence blog. When you follow those links, the third-party site may set its own cookies according to its own cookie policy. We have no control over those cookies and are not responsible for them.

We do not embed third-party advertising networks, social media widgets that track non-users, or analytics services that set their own cookies on our website without your knowledge.

5. Managing cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or clear cookies that have already been set. The steps vary by browser — please consult your browser's help documentation for specific instructions.

Please be aware that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of certain features of our website, such as the ability to submit forms correctly.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track (DNT) signal that instructs websites not to track you. Because we do not use tracking cookies or analytics technologies that monitor behaviour across sessions, our website does not respond differently to DNT signals — we apply the same minimal cookie practice to all visitors regardless of their DNT setting.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
