Cookie Policy
Effective date: August 1, 2026
Last updated: August 1, 2026
1. Purpose of this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Domino Tax Accounting Services LLC uses cookies and similar technologies on www.dominotacs.com.
It should be read with our Privacy Policy and Financial Privacy Notice.
2. What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file stored on a computer, mobile phone, tablet, or other device when a person visits a website.
Cookies may help a website:
- Operate correctly;
- Remember settings;
- Protect forms and accounts;
- Measure website performance;
- Understand how visitors use pages; or
- Display third-party content.
Other technologies, such as pixels, local storage, software-development kits, and tags, may perform similar functions. References to “cookies” in this policy include comparable technologies where appropriate.
3. Types of cookies we may use
A. Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies support functions essential to website operation, such as:
- Page navigation;
- Website security;
- Load balancing;
- Form submission;
- Anti-spam protection;
- Session management;
- Client-portal authentication; and
- Recording cookie preferences.
Disabling these cookies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly.
B. Functional cookies
Functional cookies may remember:
- Display settings;
- Language preferences;
- Form selections;
- Accessibility preferences; and
- Other choices intended to improve a return visit.
C. Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand:
- Which pages are visited;
- How visitors reach the website;
- Approximate visit duration;
- Browser and device type;
- General website performance; and
- Errors or navigation problems.
Analytics information should be configured to collect no more information than reasonably necessary for website measurement and improvement.
D. Embedded-content cookies
Pages may contain content supplied by a third party, such as:
- Videos;
- Maps;
- Scheduling tools;
- Social-media content;
- Payment services;
- Electronic forms; or
- Client-portal features.
A third party may place a cookie or collect technical information when its content loads or when you interact with it.
E. Security and anti-spam cookies
Security providers may use cookies or similar technologies to:
- Identify automated submissions;
- Prevent malicious activity;
- Protect forms;
- Detect suspicious login attempts; and
- maintain website integrity.
F. Advertising cookies
At the effective date of this policy, Domino does not intend to use confidential tax or accounting information for targeted advertising.
We do not permit advertising cookies to sell tax-return information.
If cross-site targeted-advertising technology is introduced, we will update this policy and provide any legally required notice and opt-out mechanism before enabling it.
4. Cookie duration
Cookies may be:
- Session cookies, which expire when the browser closes; or
- Persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period or until deleted.
Duration depends on the cookie’s function and provider.
The website’s cookie-preference tool should provide the most current available information concerning active cookies and their duration.
5. Cookie consent and preferences
Where the website uses nonessential cookies, visitors may be provided with options such as:
- Accept all cookies;
- Reject nonessential cookies;
- Manage preferences; and
- Withdraw or change a previous choice.
Strictly necessary cookies may operate without optional consent because they are required to provide the requested website function or maintain security.
Withdrawing consent will not affect processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal.
6. Browser controls
Most browsers allow users to:
- View cookies;
- Delete cookies;
- Block some or all cookies;
- Limit third-party cookies; or
- Receive a warning before a cookie is placed.
Blocking cookies may affect website functionality.
7. Opt-out preference signals
Where applicable law requires it, Domino will make reasonable efforts to recognize a legally valid opt-out preference signal indicating a Maryland consumer’s choice concerning targeted advertising or the sale of personal data.
MODPA requires covered controllers engaging in relevant processing to provide clear opt-out mechanisms and address qualifying browser- or platform-based opt-out signals.
Because Domino does not currently sell personal data or use confidential tax records for cross-site targeted advertising, such a signal may not change essential, security, or ordinary analytics functions.
8. Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a “Do Not Track” signal.
There is no single universal technical standard governing every Do Not Track signal. We respond to legally required opt-out preference signals and to cookie choices made through the website’s preference tool.
9. Third-party providers
Depending on the final website configuration, cookies may be associated with services used for:
- WordPress website operation;
- Themify website design;
- WPForms form functionality;
- Website hosting;
- Security and anti-spam;
- Analytics;
- Embedded video;
- Maps;
- Appointment scheduling;
- Payment processing; or
- Client portals.
The final published version of this policy must identify only providers that are actually enabled on the website.
Third-party providers control their own cookies and privacy practices. Review the applicable provider’s notice for further information.
10. Personal information collected through cookies
Cookie data may be linked to:
- IP address;
- Device identifiers;
- Browser settings;
- Page activity;
- Form interaction;
- Approximate location; and
- Cookie-preference choices.
We use this information only for the purposes described in this policy and our Privacy Policy.
We do not intentionally collect Social Security numbers, tax returns, bank-account records, or payroll documents through analytics cookies.
11. Maryland privacy rights
Where MODPA or another applicable law applies, eligible consumers may have rights to:
- Obtain information about relevant processing;
- Request access, correction, or deletion;
- Opt out of qualifying targeted advertising;
- Opt out of qualifying sales of personal data; and
- Appeal certain privacy-request decisions.
The Maryland statute also requires covered businesses to provide a clear and meaningful privacy notice describing categories of information, purposes, third-party categories, shared-data categories, and request methods.
Instructions for submitting a request appear in the Privacy Policy and Financial Privacy Notice.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when:
- Website technology changes;
- Plugins or service providers change;
- New cookies are introduced;
- A cookie is removed;
- Privacy requirements change; or
- Our processing practices change.
The revised policy will display an updated date.
Where required, we will obtain consent before activating a newly introduced nonessential technology.
