The management of the Nicoo website is committed to protecting the privacy of all its
users. This Cookie Policy is designed to provide transparency regarding the privacy
practices and principles of this site. It explains the data we collect from our website visitors
and how cookies and similar technologies are used on nicoo.in and its various subdomains.
Additionally, it provides additional information about cookies and how you can manage
your cookie settings.
Although different entities manage the site's content, advertising, or hosting, the
management of Nicoo cookies is the sole responsibility of AFRICA TRADING COMPANY
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS SARL, referred to as "we," "our," or "us," which is involved in
processing your data through the nicoo.in website. For more information about how the
site handles your data in this context and your privacy rights, please refer to the Privacy
Policy of the site.
Please note that we may update this Cookie Policy occasionally. If significant changes
occur, we will inform you. You can also check this same cookie statement page to ensure
you are aware of the most updated version.
Please be aware that we determine the region from which you visit our website based on
your IP address; therefore, if you use a VPN connection, you may not view the applicable
Cookie Policy. In that case, you can select the appropriate version through the country

What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data that can be placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone,
or other electronic device that you use to access the internet through a browser. When you
visit a website, the website can place these cookies on your device through your browser.
Examples of browsers include Microsoft Edge, Safari, Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, or
Yandex.
There are two different categories of cookies:
First-party cookies: Cookies that Nicoo places on your device for its own purposes.
Third-party cookies: Cookies placed by or on behalf of an external/third-party entity (e.g.,
another company). Generally, these are cookies for advertising and tracking purposes (see
below). Similarly, Nicoo may also obtain cookie information from third parties when you
visit other websites.
For more information about cookies, visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org
Cookie Lifespan: Once a cookie is placed on a device, it is only valid for a specific period.
Standard period: After the validity period of a cookie, the cookie is automatically removed
by the browser. For local storage: Nicoo ensures that the cookie is removed after the
specified time in the Cookie Table.
The validity period varies for each cookie. For example, some cookies are only valid during
the browser session. Other cookies may also recognize your device if you visit nicoo.in
during a new browser session, for example, for up to six months after placement.
Preemptive Refusal of Cookies: You can choose to manually delete a cookie before its
validity period expires. You can also choose to refuse cookies that can only be used with
your consent. For more information on this, see the section below: "How can you manage
cookies and cookie settings?"
Similar Technologies: In addition to cookies, other techniques can be used for similar
purposes, such as:
HTML5 Local Storage: HTML5 local storage and local shared objects can be used for the
same purposes as cookies.
Web Beacons: Web beacons (also called "tags" or "tracking pixels") are small pieces of
programming code that can be included on web pages, emails, and advertisements. Web
beacons can notify you when these web pages, emails, or advertisements have been
viewed or clicked by you.
Below, when we refer to "cookies," we also include the similar technologies described
above, unless stated otherwise.
Types of cookies we use?
We use three types of cookies on the website nicoo.in: functionality cookies, analytical
cookies, and advertising cookies. More information about each type is provided below.
Functionality Cookies:
Definition: Functionality cookies are essential for the proper layout and navigation of a
website. These cookies are placed for the sole purpose of facilitating communication in an
electronic communication network or are strictly necessary to provide you with the
requested information society service.
No Consent Required: Functionality cookies can be placed without your consent.
Analytical Cookies:
Definition of Analytical Cookies: Analytical cookies are used to analyze and map the usage
of a particular website to improve the quality and/or effectiveness of Nicoo services.
Not Always Consent Required: Nicoo does not need or request your consent to place
cookies to obtain information about the quality or effectiveness of an information society
service provided (analytical cookies), if it has little or no impact on your privacy.
Advertising Cookies:
Definition of Advertising Cookies: Advertising and targeting cookies are cookies that Nicoo
uses to analyze user activity and sessions, enabling a more personalized experience.
Advertising cookies are set by third parties with whom Nicoo conducts advertising
campaigns. They allow Nicoo to present relevant ads to you, including on other companies'
websites.

Who places which cookies?
Nicoo Cookies:
Some cookies are placed directly by Nicoo or on behalf of Nicoo. This includes all
functionality cookies and some analytical and certain advertising cookies. Click here for a
complete overview of these cookies. The overview includes information about the types
and names of cookies, their purpose, how they are used, whether they are first or third-
party cookies, and the related validity period.
Developers' Cookies:
Developers of games on the Nicoo website may also include cookies in their games. For
example, to track how many points you earned during a game. Nicoo is not responsible for
this processing: the developer decides which cookie data is processed and for what
purposes. However, we have prepared this list of cookies used by developers to inform you
on behalf of developers when you accept our policy, and these are also mentioned here as
possibly existing.
Google Analytics Cookies:
These cookies provide us with reports and statistics that help us determine how visitors
use our website, how they arrived at our website, and how we can help them find their
way back.
Please note that this list may not be complete, as cookies randomly placed with fewer than
100 website visitors are not included in the list. Additionally, cookies used by developers
may change over time. Therefore, we automatically update this list daily.
Subdomains Cookies:
The domain nicoo.in also hosts some secondary pages (subdomains). Nicoo also places
cookies on these subdomains, which also require your consent.
Games and other externally hosted websites:
This Cookie Policy applies only to cookies used when you visit the Nicoo website. Nicoo is
in no way responsible for cookies placed by and for other parties when you visit another
webpage, even if you were referred to that website from the Nicoo website.
If you want to know more about any of the cookies used on our website or about the

on a website, we can adjust the website's content to ensure it contains the ad's content
(e.g., the specific popular game). Google uses these cookies to display ads on the internet

frame for the painting. They have space on our website so you can play their game. It is the
responsibility of the third party to inform you about their processing activities. That is why
you may find another cookie bar.
