Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 2026
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Gemina Tech Ltd. ("Gemina," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at gemina.co or use our document processing platform (collectively, the "Service").
Strictly necessary cookies are always on. Whether we set analytics and advertising cookies depends on where you visit from, and you can change your choice at any time, as explained in Section 7 below.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored 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 useful information about how their site is being used.
Similar technologies include:
- Local Storage: Data stored in your browser that persists even after you close your browser window
- Session Storage: Data stored temporarily and cleared when you close your browser
- Pixels/Web Beacons: Small graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that track user behavior
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our Service. They enable core functionality such as security, authentication, and accessibility. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the Service would not function properly without them.

|---|---|---|
| session_id | Maintains your authenticated session | Session |
| csrf_token | Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
| gemina_cookie_consent | Records your cookie choice or, where we show a notice, that the notice applies; shared with console.gemina.co | 1 year (7 days for the notice) |
3.2 Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences, language settings, and display options. While not strictly necessary, they improve your experience with our Service.

3.3 Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Service by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve our Service and user experience.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics - distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics - distinguishes unique users | 24 hours |
| _gat | Google Analytics - throttles request rate | 1 minute |
We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts visits without cookies and without identifying you, so it runs whatever you choose in the cookie banner or notice.
3.4 Marketing Cookies
These cookies are used to track visitors across websites to display relevant advertisements. We may use these cookies to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to build audiences for retargeting.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |

4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our Service are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these third-party cookies and recommend reviewing their respective privacy policies:
- Google Analytics: Google Privacy Policy
- Facebook/Meta: Meta Privacy Policy
- LinkedIn: LinkedIn Privacy Policy
- Stripe (for payments): Stripe Privacy Policy
- Intercom (for support): Intercom Privacy Policy
5. Cookies and Document Processing
It is important to note that cookies are not used in our document processing pipeline. When you upload documents to Gemina for processing:
- No cookies are used to track or identify your documents
- Document processing is handled through secure API authentication, not cookie-based sessions
- Your document data is never shared with third-party cookie providers
- Analytics cookies do not have access to your document content or extracted data
Cookies are only used for website functionality, analytics, and marketing purposes as described above.
6. How Long Do Cookies Last?
Cookies can be either "session" or "persistent" cookies:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you navigate our Service.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and choices across multiple visits.
The specific duration for each cookie is listed in the tables in Section 3 above.
7. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
7.1 Cookie Banner and Notice
Depending on where you are visiting from, you will see one of two things. In most countries, including the EU and the UK, a banner asks you to accept or decline non-essential cookies before any are set. In the United States, Canada (outside Quebec), Australia, New Zealand, India, Switzerland and Mexico, we show a notice instead: analytics and advertising cookies are on unless you opt out. Wherever you are, you can change your choice at any time with the "Your Privacy Choices" link in our website footer, and your choice also applies on console.gemina.co.
7.2 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete all or specific cookies
- Block all cookies or only third-party cookies
- Set preferences for certain websites
Here are links to cookie management instructions for common browsers:
7.3 Opt-Out of Analytics
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
7.4 Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Where we show a notice instead of asking first, a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal from your browser counts as an opt-out of analytics and advertising cookies on gemina.co and console.gemina.co, unless you have chosen otherwise under "Your Privacy Choices". We do not respond to the older Do Not Track (DNT) signal.
8. Impact of Disabling Cookies
If you choose to disable or block certain cookies, please be aware that:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Blocking these will prevent you from using core features of our Service, including logging in and accessing your account.
- Functional Cookies: Blocking these means your preferences will not be remembered between visits, and some features may not work as intended.
- Analytics Cookies: Blocking these will not affect your use of the Service but will prevent us from understanding how you use our site.
- Marketing Cookies: Blocking these will not affect your use of the Service but may result in seeing less relevant advertisements.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make material changes, we will:
- Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy
- Display a prominent notice on our website
- Request your consent again if required by applicable law
We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
