Cookie Policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let the site remember things about your visit — for example whether you're signed in, which preferences you've set, or how the site is performing. Similar technologies (local storage, pixels, beacons) work in the same way and are covered by this policy.

Essential cookies

These are required for the site to work and are set without asking you, because the site can't function without them. WheelsAI uses essential cookies for:

• Keeping you signed in to your account during a session.
• Remembering your display preferences (e.g. theme, dismissed banners).
• Security and abuse-prevention signals (e.g. CSRF protection).

Analytics cookies

We use analytics to understand how the marketplace is used so we can improve it. These cookies are only set after you give consent, and you can withdraw consent at any time.

• Google Analytics 4 — sets _ga and _ga_* cookies to measure aggregate site usage. Data is processed by Google in line with their privacy notice.
• Web-vitals beacons — short-lived performance signals (e.g. page load, interaction latency) used to detect regressions. No cross-site identifier is set.

How to control cookies

You can refuse or delete cookies at any time from your browser settings — most browsers let you block cookies for a specific site, clear existing cookies, or browse in a private/incognito window where cookies are discarded at the end of the session. Blocking essential cookies will break parts of the site (signing in, saving searches, completing a booking).

A consent control for analytics cookies will be added to the site footer before public launch. Until that control is live, analytics cookies are not set on first visit; they are only enabled for accounts that have given prior written consent through the data-protection contact below.

Updates

We will update this policy when the cookies we use change. The current version is dated 10 May 2026.
