1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the website owners.

Types of Cookies

TypeDescription
Session CookiesTemporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. They enable website features during your visit.
Persistent CookiesRemain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They remember your preferences for future visits.
First-Party CookiesSet by the website you are visiting (in this case, enigmalab.io).
Third-Party CookiesSet by external services embedded on our website (such as Intercom).

Similar Technologies

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

  • Local Storage — Stores data in your browser with no expiration date
  • Session Storage — Stores data only for the duration of your browser session
  • Web Beacons/Pixels — Small invisible images used to track page views or email opens

Cookies, pixels and similar tracking technologies that involve the processing of personal data are also addressed by Regulation 9 of the DP Regulations (Collection and Use of Personal Data in Digital Communications and Services), which sets specific requirements for notice, default settings and consent.


2. How We Use Cookies

Enigma Labs Technology Limited uses cookies to:

  1. Ensure website functionality — Enable core features like region routing, security, and consent management
  2. Remember your preferences — Store language settings and consent choices
  3. Provide live chat support — Enable our Intercom chat functionality when you consent to Functional cookies

Our Privacy-First Approach

We believe in data minimisation and privacy by design, consistent with the principles set out in the DP Law and Regulation 9.2 of the DP Regulations (default settings limited to the minimum personal data necessary). Our cookie usage reflects this commitment:

FeatureOur Approach
AnalyticsNone deployed — we do not run any analytics on this site
AdvertisingNone — we don't use any advertising cookies
TrackingNone — no cross-site tracking or profiling
Data SharingNone — we don't sell or share data with advertisers

Cookie Categories Summary

CategoryConsent RequiredMaximum DurationDescription
Strictly NecessaryNo1 yearEssential for the website to function. Cannot be disabled.
FunctionalYes9 monthsEnable enhanced features and personalisation.

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website and platform to function. They cannot be disabled in our cookie consent tool. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information. We rely on these cookies on the basis that their use is necessary for the performance of the service you have requested when visiting our website, in accordance with the lawful processing conditions of the DP Law.

Cookie NameProviderPurposeDurationType
geoDecisionEnigma Labs Technology LimitedStores the signed regional routing decision (region, scoring metadata, preferred legal language, issued-at timestamp) used to deliver the correct regional entity content; signed with HMAC24 hoursHTTP (Secure, HttpOnly)
regionEnigma Labs Technology LimitedRecords the visitor's resolved region so subsequent requests do not need to re-resolve1 yearHTTP
userCountryEnigma Labs Technology LimitedRecords the visitor's ISO-3166 country code derived from request headers24 hoursHTTP
preferredLegalLanguageEnigma Labs Technology LimitedRecords the visitor's chosen legal-document language; set only on legal-document paths in the EU region30 daysHTTP
c15tEnigma Labs Technology Limited (via c15t)Records cookie-consent preferences and the disclosure shown at the time of those choices; mirrored in browser local storage. Set only after you make a consent decision via the banner or settings dialog.365 daysHTTP (SameSite=Lax, Secure on HTTPS, host-only)

Why these are necessary:

  • geoDecision — Stores the signed routing decision needed to deliver the correct regional version of the site. The cookie is signed (HMAC) and HttpOnly + Secure. Without it the regional content (legal entity, contact details, applicable policies) cannot be reliably served.
  • region — Records the resolved region so each subsequent request does not have to re-evaluate geo signals.
  • userCountry — Records the visitor's country code for region-aware content (currency-of-context metadata, regulatory references).
  • preferredLegalLanguage — Records the visitor's chosen legal-document language so subsequent visits to legal pages render in the correct language. Set only on EU legal-document paths.
  • c15t — Required to record your cookie consent choices and the disclosure shown at the time. Without it we cannot honour refusal of non-essential cookies on subsequent page loads. The same data is also mirrored in your browser's local storage so consent is preserved if cookies are cleared but storage is retained.

3.2 Functional Cookies

These cookies and similar browser-storage technologies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They are loaded via our consent management platform (c15t), which only loads the underlying provider's script after you have granted Functional consent. You can withdraw consent at any time via the Cookie Settings link in the footer, in which case the cookies and storage are cleared.

NameProviderPurposeDurationType

intercom-session-*IntercomMaintains live chat session state1 weekHTTP cookie
intercom-device-id-*IntercomIdentifies device for chat continuity (rolling refresh)~9 months (270 days)HTTP cookie

What these enable:

  • Live chat functionality — Seamless support experience with conversation history. Intercom is loaded only after you have given Functional consent, and is shut down (and its cookies / storage cleared) when you withdraw consent.

4. Cookies We Do NOT Use

Unlike many websites, we do NOT use any advertising or marketing cookies. Specifically, we do not:

What We Don't DoWhy It Matters

Our commitment: As a cybersecurity company, we believe in practising what we preach. Your privacy is not for sale.


5.1 How We Obtain Consent

Enigma Labs Technology Limited uses c15t, a consent management platform that records each visitor's cookie-consent choices and the disclosure shown at the time those choices were made. c15t blocks non-essential cookies until you have given consent and re-prompts you when material changes are made to our cookie use.

When you first visit our website:

  1. A cookie banner appears at the bottom of the screen
  2. You can choose to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences
  3. Non-essential cookies are blocked until you give consent
  4. Your preferences are stored in the c15t cookie for 365 days (mirrored in browser local storage)

Our consent mechanism is designed to meet the requirements set out in Regulation 9.3 of the DP Regulations for the collection of consent in digital communications and services:

Requirement (Reg. 9.2 / 9.3)Our Implementation
Clear affirmative act of consent✅ Explicit click on "Accept", "Reject" or category toggles
Unticked selection boxes / no pre-ticked boxes✅ All non-essential categories unticked by default
Silence or inactivity not treated as consent✅ No consent assumed without an explicit action
Clear, plain-language description of purposes✅ Each category is described in plain language
Equal prominence for refusal and acceptance✅ "Reject" presented with equal prominence to "Accept"
Default settings limited to minimum personal data✅ Only strictly necessary cookies set before consent
Link to privacy notice and rights information✅ Banner links to this policy and our Privacy Policy
Reliable, straightforward means to withdraw consent✅ "Cookie Settings" link persistently available in footer

5.2 Your Consent Choices

  2. Via browser settings: Clear cookies and browser storage for enigmalab.io — including the c15t consent-state cookie (c15t) and its mirrored local-storage entry
  3. Contact us: Email hello@enigmalab.io

When you withdraw consent:

  • Non-essential cookies are immediately deleted
  • Associated data processing stops
  • Your preference is recorded for 365 days
  • Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out on the basis of consent before its withdrawal

5.4 Consent Expiration and Renewal

  • The cookie consent banner will reappear on your next visit
  • You will be asked to confirm or update your preferences
  • This ensures your consent remains current and informed

7. Third-Party Services

We use a limited number of third-party services that may set cookies. Here's detailed information about each:

ServicePurposePrivacy PolicyOpt-Out
IntercomLive chat supportIntercom PrivacyDisable functional cookies

7.1 Intercom (Live Chat)

Purpose: Provides live chat functionality for customer support

Data collected:

  • Anonymous user ID for chat continuity
  • Chat conversation history
  • Device identifier for session management

Role: Intercom acts as our processor in respect of the chat conversation data and user-identifier data we collect through its chat service (where we determine the purposes and means of processing). Intercom may additionally act as an independent controller in respect of certain platform telemetry and product analytics it generates in the operation of the chat service itself. The role allocation between Enigma and Intercom is governed by Intercom's data processing agreement and product terms, as in force from time to time.

Data location: Intercom processes data in the United States. The United States is not currently on the Commissioner of Data Protection's list of jurisdictions assessed as providing an adequate level of protection (see Appendix 3 of the DP Regulations). Transfers of personal data from Enigma Labs Technology Limited (DIFC) to Intercom (United States) are therefore made under appropriate contractual safeguards under the appropriate-safeguards regime of the DP Law and Regulation 5 of the DP Regulations, including the Standard Contractual Clauses approved and published by the Commissioner.

Data retention: Device identifier (intercom-device-id-*): ~9 months (270 days) — first-party cookie. Session identifier (intercom-session-*): 1 week — first-party cookie. User identifier (intercom-id-*): first-party cookie with no expiry (until cleared by the user); also mirrored to browser local storage.

How to opt out: Disable "Functional Cookies" in our cookie settings or contact Intercom through their Privacy Portal


8. Do Not Track

What are Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC)?

Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC) are browser signals that communicate your preference not to be tracked. DNT is the older mechanism, sent as a request header; GPC is a newer specification with growing legal recognition. GPC is exposed both as a request header (Sec-GPC) and a JavaScript property (navigator.globalPrivacyControl).

Our response to these signals

AspectOur Approach
Global Privacy Control (GPC)Our consent management platform (c15t) recognises GPC and treats it as an automatic refusal of non-essential cookie categories where the underlying legal regime supports it
Do Not Track (DNT)We do not implement specific behaviour for the legacy DNT header. The same outcome (refuse non-essential cookies) is achievable via our cookie banner or settings dialog
Third-Party CookiesIntercom does not currently respect GPC or DNT in all cases; we therefore only load it after explicit Functional consent regardless of either signal
Essential CookiesStill required for website functionality regardless of GPC or DNT

Alternative options

If your browser doesn't expose GPC or you want additional control:

  1. Use our cookie consent banner or "Cookie Settings" link to reject non-essential cookies
  2. Install privacy-focused browser extensions (uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger)
  3. Use browser settings to block third-party cookies
  4. Use private / incognito browsing mode

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect:

  • Changes in the cookies we use
  • New third-party services
  • Changes in legal requirements (including changes to the DP Law, the DP Regulations or guidance issued by the Commissioner of Data Protection)
  • Improvements to our privacy practices

Version History

VersionDateChanges
1.0January 22, 2026Initial release
2.0May 19, 2026Rewrite to align disclosures with the DIFC Data Protection Law, DIFC Law No. 5 of 2020 (as amended by DIFC Law No. 2 of 2022) and the DIFC Data Protection Regulations (Consolidated Version No. 2, in force 1 September 2023). Removed references to legal frameworks that do not apply to Enigma Labs Technology Limited as a DIFC-incorporated controller; added the Commissioner of Data Protection as the supervisory authority; clarified cross-border transfer mechanisms for Intercom (United States) and Plausible (European Union).
2.1May 19, 2026Walk-through refinements: expanded the strict-necessity reasoning for each cookie in §3.1; clarified Intercom's dual processor / independent-controller role in §7.1; restated DP Law citations descriptively in §7.1, §7.3 and §10 pending counsel verification of specific article numbers.
3.0May 19, 2026Engineering reconciliation: installed c15t as the consent management platform; gated Intercom behind explicit Functional consent; removed cookies and third-party services that were described in v2.x but not actually deployed (PHPSESSID/csrf_token/__Host-session/cc_cookie/locale/lang/plausible_ignore/X cookies, plus the entire Plausible and X share-button sections); added the c15t consent-state cookie to the strictly-necessary inventory; restated intercom-id-* as a first-party cookie with localStorage mirror (correcting the earlier v2.0 classification as localStorage-only); reframed §8 around Global Privacy Control (GPC) alongside the legacy DNT signal; narrowed the Regulation 10 attribution to the human-intervention right; fixed the /terms URL to /tos.

Current version: 3.0 (Last updated: May 19, 2026)

We recommend reviewing this policy periodically. Continued use of our website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.


10. Your Rights

Where personal data is processed through cookies or similar technologies described in this policy, you have the rights set out in the DIFC Data Protection Law, DIFC Law No. 5 of 2020 (as amended). These rights include, subject to the conditions and limitations set out in the DP Law:

  • DIFC Data Protection Law, DIFC Law No. 5 of 2020 (the "DP Law") — the primary data-protection statute applicable to Enigma Labs Technology Limited as a DIFC-incorporated controller
  • DIFC Laws Amendment Law, DIFC Law No. 2 of 2022 — amendments to the DP Law (including the autonomous-systems framework operationalised in Regulation 10 of the DP Regulations)
  • DIFC Data Protection Regulations (Consolidated Version No. 2, in force on 1 September 2023) (the "DP Regulations") — and in particular:
    • Regulation 5 (Transfers Out of the DIFC) — including the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the Commissioner
