Cookie Policy
Last updated: February 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Dubinga ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at dubinga.com or use our platform (the "Service"). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners usage information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Dubinga) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by external services (such as payment processing or analytics).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
2.1 Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are required for the Service to function correctly. Without them, you would not be able to navigate the platform or use its features. They cannot be disabled.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
session_token | Authenticates your login session and maintains your signed-in state as you navigate the platform | 7 days |
csrf_token | Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks by validating that form submissions originate from our platform | Session |
refresh_token | Allows seamless session renewal without requiring you to log in again | 30 days |
cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences so we don't ask you again on every visit | 1 year |
2.2 Functional Cookies (Preferences)
These cookies remember your preferences and settings to provide a more personalized experience. The Service will still work without them, but some features may not behave as expected.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
theme | Remembers your light/dark mode preference across sessions | 1 year |
locale | Stores your language and locale preference | 1 year |
sidebar_state | Remembers whether the dashboard sidebar is expanded or collapsed | 1 year |
2.3 Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Service by collecting anonymous usage data. This information helps us improve the platform, identify popular features, and fix usability issues. Analytics cookies are only set with your consent.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_analytics_id | Generates an anonymous identifier to distinguish unique visitors without identifying individuals | 1 year |
_analytics_session | Groups page views into sessions to understand user navigation patterns | 30 minutes |
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some third-party services we integrate with may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies. The third parties that may set cookies through our Service include:
3.1 Stripe (Payment Processing)
Stripe uses cookies to process payments securely, detect fraud, and comply with financial regulations. These cookies are essential for the checkout and subscription management process. For more information, see Stripe's Cookie Policy.
3.2 Advertising Platform SDKs
When you connect your advertising accounts via OAuth (Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, Microsoft), the authentication flow may set cookies from those platforms during the login/authorization process. These are transient and required to complete the connection securely.
4. How to Manage Cookies
You have several options for managing cookies:
4.1 Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit the Service, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies (analytics and functional). Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the Service to operate.
4.2 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View and delete existing cookies
- Block all cookies or only third-party cookies
- Set preferences for specific websites
- Configure the browser to notify you when a cookie is set
Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:
Please note that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from using the Service. Blocking functional cookies may degrade your experience (e.g., your theme preference will not be remembered).
5. Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use the following similar technologies:
- Local Storage: Used to store non-sensitive preferences and UI state on your device. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not sent to the server with every request. We use local storage for dashboard layout preferences, recently viewed items, and draft content that hasn't been saved yet.
- Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but data is automatically cleared when you close the browser tab. We use this for temporary state during multi-step workflows (e.g., platform connection setup).
6. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. There is currently no universal standard for how companies should respond to DNT signals. We respect DNT signals by not setting analytics cookies when a DNT header is detected.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you via the cookie consent banner or email.
