This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on the DealerBetter website, and how you can control them. It applies to dealerbetter.com and any DealerBetter-hosted dealer sites.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and provide information to the site owner about how the site is being used.
Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
We use cookies in the following categories:
Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential for the website to function. They cannot be disabled. They do not store any personally identifiable information.

|---|---|---|
| session_id | Maintains your session as you browse the site | Session |
| csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery on forms | Session |
| cookie_consent | Stores your cookie preferences | 12 months |
Analytics cookies
We do not currently set Google Analytics or other third-party analytics cookies. If you accept analytics, DealerBetter sends first-party, anonymous events such as page views, plan selections, checkout openings and checkout abandonments. These events may include the page, plan and billing period, but not your name, email address or phone number. A temporary random funnel identifier links events from the same checkout attempt and is not stored as a browser cookie.
Functional cookies
These remember your preferences to improve your experience. No personally identifiable information is stored.

If you are visiting a website hosted and managed by DealerBetter on behalf of a dealership, the same categories of cookies apply. Each dealer site may include:
The dealership is the data controller for their own site. Their privacy and cookie notices apply to their site separately.
