Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags, SDKs and server-side identifiers. They can help a website remember settings, keep you signed in, secure the service, understand usage and improve performance.

2. Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are needed for the website to work. They may support login sessions, security, fraud prevention, language/country choices, cookie consent storage, load balancing and basic platform functionality. These cookies do not require consent where they are strictly necessary.

Preference cookies

These remember choices such as theme, language, region, shipping country, view mode and other display preferences.

Analytics and performance cookies

These help us understand how visitors use BrickTracker, which pages and features work well, and where errors occur. Where required, we only use these after you consent.

Marketing or affiliate cookies

Some shop links or campaigns may use tracking parameters or cookies to measure referrals, affiliate attribution or campaign performance. Where required, these are only used after you consent or when controlled by the third-party website you visit.

3. Examples of cookie purposes

• keeping you logged in and protecting your session;
• remembering your dark/light theme and language;
• remembering your cookie consent choice;
• remembering your selected country for shop and price information;
• measuring page performance and identifying errors;
• understanding which features are used so we can improve BrickTracker;
• measuring click-outs to third-party shops.

4. Third-party cookies and shop links

BrickTracker may use third-party providers for hosting, security, analytics, email, embedded content or referral measurement. These providers may set cookies or receive technical information when their tools are loaded.

When you click through to an external shop, marketplace, social platform or other website, that third party may set its own cookies and process your data under its own cookie and privacy policies. BrickTracker does not control those third-party websites.

5. Your cookie choices

Where optional cookies are used, you can accept or reject them through the cookie banner or cookie settings on BrickTracker. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of BrickTracker to stop working correctly, including login, security, preferences, collection tools and alerts.

6. How long cookies stay on your device

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period or until you delete them. The exact lifetime depends on the cookie purpose and provider. We aim to keep cookie lifetimes reasonable and proportionate to their purpose.

7. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website changes, when we add or remove cookies, or when legal requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “last updated” date.
