1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use the site. We use both first-party cookies (set by carseto) and third-party cookies (set by our service providers).

2. Cookie Categories

We use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly Necessary - These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as authentication, security, and load balancing. You cannot disable them.

Functional - These cookies enable enhanced functionality such as remembering your language preference. They are not essential but improve your experience.

Analytics - These cookies help us understand how visitors use our site (e.g., which pages are most popular). We use them only with your consent.

Marketing - We do not currently use marketing cookies. If we add them in future, we will obtain your consent first.

Your consent is stored in a cookie (carseto_consent) for 6 months. After that period, we will ask for your preferences again.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking all cookies may affect how the site functions.
