Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how CarFlipper ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on car-flip-finder.com. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail on how we handle your personal data.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website operators.
Cookies can be "session" cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third parties ("third-party cookies").
2. Cookies We Use
CarFlipper currently uses only essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the Service to function. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
2.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are required for the Service to operate and cannot be disabled. Without these cookies, core features such as authentication and security would not function.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| next-auth.session-token | Authenticates your session and keeps you logged in while you use the Service. This cookie is set by NextAuth and is essential for secure account access. | Session / 30 days |
| next-auth.csrf-token | Prevents cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks by validating that form submissions and authentication requests originate from our site. | Session |
| cookie-consent | Stores your cookie consent preference so we remember your choice and do not ask you again on subsequent visits. | 1 year |
2.2 Analytics Cookies
CarFlipper does not currently use analytics or performance cookies. If we introduce analytics cookies in the future (for example, to understand how users navigate the Service and to identify areas for improvement), we will update this Cookie Policy and request your consent before setting any non-essential cookies on your device.
2.3 Advertising Cookies
We do not use advertising or targeting cookies. CarFlipper does not serve ads or participate in ad networks.
3. How to Manage Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the "Options," "Preferences," or "Settings" menu of your browser. The following links may help you manage cookies in popular browsers:
- Google Chrome:Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox:Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari:Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge:Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and data stored
Please note that if you choose to block or delete essential cookies, some parts of the Service may not function properly. For example, you will not be able to remain logged in if you block the session authentication cookie.
4. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, particularly if we introduce new types of cookies. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we introduce non-essential cookies, we will request your consent before setting them.
We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
