Cookies, local storage and external media
What Agoogi uses
| Name | Purpose | Type and duration |
|---|---|---|
AGOOGISESSID |
Secure login, cart/account state and cross-site request-forgery protection. | Strictly necessary session cookie. Ends when the browser session ends; the server also applies an inactivity timeout. |
agoogi_cookie_preferences |
Remembers whether you allowed optional external media. | Strictly necessary preference cookie, up to 180 days. |
agoogi_currency |
Remembers the currency you selected for estimated shop-price displays. | Strictly necessary preference cookie, up to 180 days. Actual orders and payments remain in XCD. |
agoogi_interest_profile_v1 |
Stores broad interest counts used to reorder homepage recommendations after you explore Agoogi pages. | Browser session storage, not a cross-site cookie. It stays in the current browser/tab session and is not sent to Agoogi's server by this feature. |
External media
YouTube videos are blocked by default. When you select “Load this video once”, only that video is loaded for the current page. When you allow external media, Agoogi remembers the choice and may load YouTube’s privacy-enhanced player. YouTube may then receive your IP address, device information and interaction data under Google’s own terms and privacy notice.
Google sign-in and payment pages
Google sign-in and external payment pages are opened only after you choose them. Those providers operate their own domains and may use cookies or similar technologies according to their notices. Agoogi’s preference control does not delete cookies set on another provider’s domain.
Analytics and advertising
Agoogi does not currently activate third-party advertising cookies, cross-site behavioural tracking or optional analytics. The homepage recommendation feature uses only broad first-party interest counts kept in browser session storage. If Agoogi later adds persistent analytics, advertising technology or external behavioural data, this notice and the relevant choices must be updated before those tools are activated where required.
Change your choice
You can also clear cookies using your browser settings. Clearing the preference cookie will cause the privacy-choice banner to appear again.
