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 allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences and login status. Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide reporting information.
2. How FindMaster Uses Cookies
FindMaster uses cookies to provide a better experience on our platform. Specifically, we use cookies to: keep you signed in between sessions; remember your search preferences and filters; track which listings you have recently viewed; measure how users interact with our platform so we can improve it; and detect and prevent fraudulent activity.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on FindMaster: - Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the platform to function. They include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against fraud. You cannot opt out of these cookies. - Functional Cookies: These remember your preferences such as your location, language, and saved filters to provide a more personalised experience. - Analytics Cookies: These help us understand how visitors use FindMaster, which pages are most popular, and where users drop off. We use this data to improve our platform. The information collected is aggregated and anonymous. - Preference Cookies: These remember choices you make (such as your preferred theme or saved searches) so you don't have to re-enter them each time you visit.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on FindMaster are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. For example, we may use authentication cookies from Google or Facebook when you sign in via those providers. These third parties have their own privacy policies and cookie practices. We do not control third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the respective privacy policies of those providers.
5. Cookie Duration
Cookies can be either 'session cookies' or 'persistent cookies'. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually. Most of the cookies we use are session-based, but some functional and preference cookies may persist for up to 12 months.
6. Managing & Disabling Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Most browsers allow you to view, block, and delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that if you disable strictly necessary cookies, some features of FindMaster, including staying logged in, may not work correctly. To manage cookies in your browser, refer to the help section of your browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
7. Cookies and Your Consent

If you do not wish to accept cookies, you can adjust your browser settings to refuse them or stop using the platform.
