Privacy controls
Cookie Policy
This policy explains the browser storage and cookies used on spotbuy.eu, why they are used, and how you control them.
Last updated: 11 July 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Similar technologies, such as local storage, can remember information in your browser without sending it automatically with every web request.
2. Consent and your choice
Optional analytics is off by default. Google Analytics is loaded only after you choose “Accept analytics” or enable analytics in the settings panel. “Reject analytics” is offered at the same level as acceptance, and the website remains available if you reject it.
We use local storage without consent only to remember the privacy choice you requested. This is strictly necessary for the consent mechanism and contains no browsing history or advertising identifier.
3. Storage and cookie list
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
spotbuy_cookie_consent_v1 | spotbuy.eu local storage | Stores whether analytics is allowed and when the choice was made. | Choice requested again after 180 days | Necessary |
_ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors for aggregated website measurement. | Up to 395 days | Analytics — consent required |
_ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics | Maintains session state for aggregated website measurement. | Up to 395 days | Analytics — consent required |
Google may adjust technical cookie names as its service evolves. We review this table when the site’s tracking setup changes.
4. Google Analytics
When enabled, Google Analytics processes information about visits and interactions, including truncated or derived location information, browser and device details, page URLs, and event times. The site configures Analytics without Google signals or advertising-personalisation signals. Google Analytics is not used here for targeted advertising.
Learn more in Google’s Privacy Policy. Additional information about personal-data handling appears in our Privacy Policy.
5. Manage or withdraw consent
You can change or withdraw your analytics choice at any time. When analytics is rejected, the site attempts to delete its own Google Analytics cookies from this domain. You can also delete cookies and site data through your browser settings. Blocking necessary local storage may cause the consent banner to appear again.
6. Changes to this policy
We update this policy when storage technologies, providers, purposes, or retention periods change. If a change requires new consent, optional technology remains disabled until that consent is obtained.
