Cookies policy

Essential cookies (always on)

These are required for Driveway Seller to work, so they don’t need your consent and can’t be switched off through our settings. Without them, you couldn’t log in or use the site securely.

1. Session cookie (_driveway_seller_session) – keeps you logged in as you move around the site, and is removed when you log out. This also carries the security token that protects the forms you submit, so we know a request genuinely came from you.
2. Remember me cookie (remember_user_token) – if you tick “remember me” when logging in, this keeps you logged in for up to two weeks.
3. Consent cookie (cc_cookie) – remembers the cookie choices you’ve made, so we don’t ask you again on every visit.
4. Scroll position (session storage) – remembers where you were on a page while the next one loads, and is cleared when you close the tab. *
5. Spam check – Cloudflare Turnstile checks that sign-ups and contact forms come from a person, not a bot. *

Analytics cookies (only with your consent)

We use Google Analytics, delivered through Google Tag Manager, to understand how people use Driveway Seller – things like which pages are visited, how long people spend on the site, and where visitors come from. It sets cookies such as _ga and _ga_ followed by an ID. This helps us improve the service, and the data we look at is aggregated – we’re interested in patterns, not individuals. *

We also keep our own record of visits, using the ahoy_visit and ahoy_visitor cookies, so we can see which pages and features are used without relying on a third party. This data stays with us. *

You can read more about how Google uses this data in Google’s privacy policy, and you can additionally opt out of Google Analytics across all websites using Google’s browser opt-out tool.
