Cookie Policy

Last updated: 3 September 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how wegamiu ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit wegamiu.com (the "Site"). It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.

By continuing to use the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. Where consent is required by applicable law, we will ask for it before placing non-essential cookies on your device.


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, to work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site owner.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting 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 a third party to be present on or through the website, such as analytics, advertising, and interactive content.


2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following categories of cookies on the Site:

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Site to function properly. They enable core features such as security, session management, and access to protected areas. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms.

2.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of the Site. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited the Site and will not be able to monitor its performance.

2.3 Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

2.4 Targeting and Preference Cookies

These cookies may be set through the Site by us or our partners. They may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted content.

4. Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies on the Site:

4.1 Web Beacons

Web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) are tiny graphic images embedded in web pages or emails. They are used to track user behaviour, measure the effectiveness of content, and gather aggregate data about Site usage.

4.2 Local Storage

We may use local storage and session storage to save data on your device. Unlike cookies, this data is not transmitted to our servers with every request, but it serves a similar purpose of remembering your preferences and settings.

4.3 Fingerprinting

We do not use browser fingerprinting or device fingerprinting techniques to identify or track individual users without their knowledge.


5. How We Use Cookie Data

The data collected through cookies and similar technologies is used for the following purposes:

To ensure the Site operates correctly and securely. To remember your preferences and settings between visits. To analyse how visitors use the Site so we can improve content and performance. To understand which sections of the Site are most useful to our readers. To detect and prevent fraudulent or abusive activity. To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.

We do not sell data collected through cookies to third parties. We do not use cookie data to make automated decisions that significantly affect you.


6. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on the Site are placed by third-party service providers that we use to deliver features and services. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we encourage you to review them. We do not control these third-party cookies and are not responsible for the information they collect.

Third-party services that may place cookies through the Site include, but are not limited to, analytics providers, content delivery networks, and embedded content services. Where we have integrated such services, we take reasonable steps to ensure they meet appropriate data protection standards.


7. Your Choices and Controls

You have several options for managing cookies. Please note that restricting cookies may affect the functionality of the Site.

7.1 Consent Management

Where we are required to obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies, we will present you with a consent notice when you first visit the Site. You may update your preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings option available on the Site.

7.2 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically instruct your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only certain types, or to alert you when a cookie is being sent. The method for managing cookies varies by browser. Refer to your browser's help documentation for guidance:

7.3 Opt-Out Tools

7.4 Do Not Track

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We will update this policy if an industry-wide standard is adopted.


8. Retention of Cookie Data

Cookie data is retained for the duration specified in the cookie details table above. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or until you delete them manually through your browser settings.

Data collected through cookies for analytics purposes is retained in aggregated, anonymised form for a period of up to 26 months from the date of collection, after which it is deleted or further anonymised.


9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use, legal requirements, or our business practices. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised.

Where changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as by displaying a notice on the Site. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
