1. What cookies and browser storage are
A cookie is a small text file a website saves in your browser, which the browser sends back on later visits. Browser storage (called localStorage and sessionStorage) is similar, but it stays on your device and isn't sent to the website automatically. The site uses both, for the few jobs listed below. Some are needed for the site to work the way you asked, and one, Google Analytics, is optional.
2. Cookies
| Name | Set by | What it's for | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
sid | aidomains.si | Keeps you logged in to your partner or seller dashboard. It holds a random token, nothing else. It can't be read by page scripts, is only sent over HTTPS and isn't sent to other websites. Only set when you log in. | 30 days, or until you log out |
aff | aidomains.si | Remembers which partner sent you, so they're credited if you make an offer on a portfolio name. It holds only the partner's link code, such as "maria". Only set when you arrive through a partner's link. | 30 days from the last partner link you clicked |
_ga | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor from another with a random ID, so visits can be counted without knowing who you are. | Up to 2 years |
_ga_QCZVQD9B19 | Google Analytics | Keeps track of the current visit for this site's analytics property. | Up to 2 years |
Cloudflare, which hosts the site, can also set short-lived security cookies such as __cf_bm when traffic looks automated. They're used to block bots and are covered by Cloudflare's cookie policy.
When you send a form, Cloudflare Turnstile runs in its own small frame from challenges.cloudflare.com to check you're a person. It reads signals from your browser to do that, and any storage it uses belongs to Cloudflare. Cloudflare says Turnstile data isn't used for advertising.
3. Browser storage
These settings never leave your device. The site reads them only to avoid asking or showing you the same thing twice.
| Name | Where | What it's for | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
consent | localStorage | Remembers whether you pressed Accept or Decline for analytics. | Until you change it or clear your browser's site data |
toastSeen | localStorage | Remembers which live .si registration notices you've already seen, so the same one doesn't pop up again. | Each entry is dropped after 3 days |
toastsOff | sessionStorage | Remembers that you closed those notices. | Until you close the tab |
promoSeen | sessionStorage | Stops the homepage offer window opening twice in one visit. | Until you close the tab |
proof: plus your email | sessionStorage | Holds the signed note that you've already confirmed your email with a code, so a second form in the same visit doesn't ask again. | Valid for 2 hours, cleared when you close the tab |
4. Analytics and your choice
Google Analytics helps me see which pages and domains people actually look at, so I can improve them. It runs with Google signals switched off and advertising storage denied everywhere, so it isn't used to build ad profiles. Google Analytics 4 doesn't log or store IP addresses, and its data is deleted after 14 months.
- In the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland, analytics cookies stay off until you press Accept on the banner. If you ignore the banner, they stay off.
- Everywhere else, analytics is on by default, and you can press Decline on the banner or use the button below at any time.
Your choice is saved in your browser. If you decline, the site removes the Google Analytics cookies it can reach and doesn't set them again.
You can also block Google Analytics on every site with Google's opt-out browser add-on.
5. The referral cookie
The aff cookie exists so partners who share these domains get paid fairly. It's set only if you open a link that contains a partner's code, it holds only that code, and it's read only when you send an offer or buy request on one of the portfolio names. If you'd rather not have it, delete it in your browser or open aidomains.si directly instead of through a partner's link. Nothing on the site stops working without it. The only effect is that the partner isn't credited.
6. How to delete or block cookies
Every browser lets you see and delete cookies and site data, and block them for a site:
- Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies or Site settings.
- Safari: Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data.
- Firefox: Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
- Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions.
If you block every cookie, you'll still be able to browse and send offers, but you won't be able to stay logged in to a dashboard, because the sid cookie is what keeps you logged in.
7. What isn't used
- No advertising cookies, remarketing tags or social media pixels.
- No cookies from Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn or any ad network.
- No fingerprinting to recognise you without cookies.
- No selling or sharing of cookie data with anyone.
8. Changes and contact
If the site starts using a new cookie, it'll be added to this page, with a new date, before it goes live. For anything else about your data, see the privacy policy or email hello@aidomains.si.
