The purpose of this Cookie Policy is to inform you transparently about the use of cookies and similar technologies on our website domus-suisse.ch (hereinafter ‘the Site’), operated by the company Domus Suisse.

Upon your first visit to our Site, an informational banner notifies you of the presence of cookies and invites you to select your preferences. You can modify these choices at any time.

1. What is a ‘Cookie’?

A cookie is a small text file, pixel, or tracker deposited and stored on your terminal (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device, memorise your preferences (such as display language), and collect information related to your browsing pattern in order to improve your user experience.

2. What types of cookies do we use and why?

We use different categories of cookies, which can be classified according to their purpose:

2.1. Technical and strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are indispensable for the proper functioning of the Site. They enable you to navigate the Site, search for properties, and use basic features (such as managing your session or memorising your cookie choices).

Consent: Not required. These cookies cannot be deactivated in our systems as the Site cannot function correctly without them.

2.2. Performance and analytics cookies (Statistics)

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources in order to evaluate and improve the performance of our marketplace platform. They help us understand which listings or pages are the most popular and how visitors navigate the Site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore completely anonymised.
Consent: Required. They are only deployed if you expressly accept them.

2.3. Functionality cookies (Preferences)

These cookies allow the enhancement and personalisation of the Site’s features (for instance, remembering your short-listed favourites, your property search criteria, or your chosen language).

Consent: Required. If you do not accept these cookies, some of these services may not function optimally.

2.4. Targeting and advertising cookies (Marketing)

These cookies may be set up within our Site by our advertising partners or through the integration of social networks. They can be used by these third parties to build a profile of your real estate interests and show you relevant adverts on other websites.

Consent: Required. They are only deposited with your prior consent.

3. Retention period of cookies

Cookies have different lifespans:

Session cookies: These are temporary and are automatically deleted from your device as soon as you close your internet browser.

Persistent cookies: They remain stored on your device for a specified duration after closing your browser (in accordance with applicable regulations, generally a maximum of 13 months) or until you delete them manually.

4. How to manage and configure your choices?
