SapphireDomains.com (“Sapphire Domains”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is a premium digital asset and domain brokerage based in the European Union. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store, and protect personal information when you visit our website, submit a private offer, initiate a domain acquisition, contact us, or interact with our advertising campaigns.

We process personal information in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), applicable EU ePrivacy rules, the UK GDPR where relevant, the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), and other applicable privacy laws in jurisdictions where our users, buyers, or counterparties are located.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Cookie Policy, Terms of Service, Transfer & Refund Policy, and any cookie consent banner or consent preference tool displayed on our website.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the information reasonably necessary to operate our marketplace, evaluate acquisition intent, route domain transactions, protect the website, comply with legal obligations, and improve advertising performance.

  • Acquisition Intent Data: When you submit a private offer, request a price, or initiate a checkout or acquisition workflow, we may collect your name or entity name, email address, target domain, offer amount, inquiry type, and related message or transaction context.
  • Contact Data: When you contact us by email, form, or concierge request, we may collect your contact details and the contents of your communication.
  • Technical and Security Data: We may process IP address, hashed or pseudonymized IP identifiers, user-agent data, device type, browser type, referrer, approximate location, timestamps, page interactions, and fraud-prevention signals.
  • Campaign and Conversion Data: We use advertising and measurement technologies such as Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Google conversion tracking, and remarketing tools to understand campaign performance and attribute conversion events such as offer submissions or acquisition inquiries.
  • Cookie and Consent Data: We may store your cookie consent choices, including whether you accepted or rejected non-essential analytics or advertising technologies.
  • Transaction and Compliance Data: For completed or attempted transactions, we may keep records necessary for transfer support, escrow coordination, legal compliance, dispute prevention, audit obligations, fraud prevention, and anti-money-laundering or sanctions-related screening where applicable.
  • Financial Data: We do not store, process, or view full payment card details on SapphireDomains.com. Payment, escrow, registrar, and marketplace flows may be handled by third-party providers such as Escrow.com, Spaceship.com, Atom.com, Unstoppable Domains, payment processors, registrars, or other transaction partners. Those providers may process your information under their own privacy policies.

2. How We Use Personal Information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

  • to receive, verify, and respond to acquisition inquiries and private offers;
  • to route users to appropriate checkout, escrow, marketplace, registrar, or transfer workflows;
  • to provide private brokerage and concierge support;
  • to protect the website against spam, fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, and suspicious acquisition attempts;
  • to measure advertising performance and improve landing pages, campaigns, and user experience;
  • to track conversion events, such as private offer submissions, acquisition inquiries, and contact form submissions;
  • to show remarketing ads to previous website visitors where legally permitted and where required consent has been obtained;
  • to maintain transaction records, enforce agreements, resolve disputes, and comply with legal obligations.

3. Legal Bases Under GDPR

For users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases where applicable:

  • Contractual Necessity: to respond to acquisition requests, process offers, route checkout flows, support escrow or transfer activity, and provide requested brokerage services.
  • Legitimate Interests: to secure the website, prevent fraud, measure general business performance, manage buyer interest, protect legal rights, and improve our services, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
  • Consent: for non-essential analytics cookies, advertising cookies, remarketing, ad personalization, and certain conversion measurement technologies where consent is required by law.
  • Legal Obligation: to comply with applicable tax, accounting, AML, sanctions, escrow, audit, regulatory, or dispute-related requirements.

4. Cookies, Google Ads, and Advertising Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, maintain session integrity, protect forms, measure advertising performance, attribute conversions, and show remarketing ads to previous visitors where legally permitted.

We may use Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Google conversion tracking, remarketing tags, and related Google measurement technologies. Depending on your consent choices, these technologies may process pseudonymous identifiers, cookie identifiers, device and browser information, page URL, referrer information, approximate location, ad interaction data, and conversion events such as offer submissions or acquisition inquiries.

For users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, non-essential analytics and advertising technologies are used only after consent where required by law. Our website may use Google Consent Mode to communicate your choices to Google services, including signals such as ad storage, analytics storage, ad user data, and ad personalization.

You may accept, reject, or change your non-essential cookie preferences through our cookie banner or consent preference tool. For more information, please see our Cookie Policy.

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information to data brokers. We may share limited information with trusted service providers and transaction partners where necessary to operate SapphireDomains.com and provide brokerage services.

  • Advertising and Measurement Providers: such as Google Ads and Google Tag Manager, for conversion tracking, attribution, remarketing, fraud prevention, and campaign optimization, subject to your consent where required.
  • Transaction Partners: such as escrow providers, registrars, domain marketplaces, payment processors, and transfer partners needed to complete or support a domain acquisition.
  • Hosting, Security, and Infrastructure Providers: that support website operation, storage, security, monitoring, and fraud prevention.
  • Professional Advisors: such as legal, accounting, compliance, or dispute-resolution advisors where necessary.
  • Authorities or Courts: where required by law, subpoena, legal process, regulatory request, AML or sanctions obligation, or to protect our legal rights.

6. International Transfers

Because we operate internationally and use global service providers, personal information may be processed in countries outside your country of residence, including the United States and other jurisdictions that may have different data protection laws.

Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as contractual protections, data processing agreements, Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy mechanisms, or other lawful transfer tools.

7. EU, UK, and Swiss Privacy Rights

If you are located in the EEA, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you may have the following rights, subject to legal limitations:

  • the right to access your personal information;
  • the right to correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
  • the right to request deletion of personal information;
  • the right to restrict or object to certain processing;
  • the right to data portability;
  • the right to withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent;
  • the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority.

Deletion requests may be limited where retention is required for active transactions, escrow records, fraud prevention, AML/sanctions compliance, legal claims, audit obligations, or other lawful reasons.

8. United States Privacy Rights

If you are a resident of California or another U.S. state with applicable privacy rights, you may have the right to request access, correction, deletion, portability, or information about categories of personal information collected, disclosed, sold, or shared.

SapphireDomains.com does not sell personal information to data brokers. However, certain advertising, analytics, remarketing, or conversion tracking activities may be considered “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or similar activity under some U.S. state privacy laws.

Where required, you may opt out of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising through our cookie preference tool or by contacting us. We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.

9. Canada and Other International Users

For users in Canada and other jurisdictions, we process personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws. Where consent is required for marketing, analytics, advertising, or non-essential cookies, we request consent before using those technologies.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including brokerage support, transaction routing, legal compliance, fraud prevention, audit obligations, dispute resolution, and campaign measurement.

Acquisition intent data may be retained for the lifecycle of an inquiry or transaction and for standard legal, audit, compliance, or dispute-prevention periods. Cookie and advertising data retention may vary depending on provider settings, consent choices, and applicable law.

11. Security

We use technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These safeguards may include SSL/TLS encryption, access controls, secure hosting practices, fraud monitoring, pseudonymization, and limited internal access.

No online system can be guaranteed completely secure. You should use caution when transmitting sensitive information online and should not submit payment details directly through ordinary website forms.

12. Children

SapphireDomains.com is intended for business users, founders, investors, acquisition teams, and adults interested in premium digital assets. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required by applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, business operations, advertising tools, legal requirements, or data practices. When we make material updates, we will update the “Last Updated” date above.
