4.2 Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Service to function. They include session authentication tokens that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against fraud. These cannot be disabled without breaking the Service.
- Session token — maintains your authenticated login session (duration: session)

Functional Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences and settings to improve your experience, such as saved search criteria and UI preferences.
Analytics Cookies (May Be Used in the Future)
We may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics to understand how users interact with the Service — pages visited, features used, session duration, and similar aggregate metrics. We do not currently use these tools. We will update this policy and provide notice before activating any analytics cookies.
Marketing / Advertising Pixels (May Be Used in the Future)
We may in the future use pixels from platforms such as Meta (Facebook) or Google Ads to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. These are not currently active. We will update this policy and provide notice before activating any such tools.
4.3 Third-Party Cookies
Stripe, our payment processor, may set cookies during the checkout and billing flow. These are governed by Stripe's own privacy and cookie policies. Google's APIs used to power search results may also use cookies or similar technologies governed by Google's policies.
4.4 Your Cookie Choices
You can control cookies through your browser settings:
- Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies
- Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in or using the Service
- You can opt out of Google Analytics at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
Cookie preferences are browser- and device-specific. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to configure your preferences on each.
4.5 Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" signal. We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, as no uniform industry standard exists for doing so.
4.6 Updates to This Policy
We will update this Cookie Policy before activating any new tracking or advertising technologies. Material changes will be communicated via email or a notice on the Site.
