Cookie Policy
This policy lists the cookies and similar technologies used on www.carprices.ae, what each one is for, who sets it and how long it lasts. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains the wider handling of personal data under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021.
The Categories We Use
- Strictly necessary — the site cannot work without these. They keep you signed in and remember your cookie choice. They are not used for advertising.
- Functional — small conveniences that remember what you did, such as a dismissed advert or your recent searches.
- Analytics — tells us how the site is used so we can fix what does not work.
- Advertising — used to select and measure the adverts you see, including personalised advertising where you have not opted out.
Cookies We Set
These are set by carprices.ae itself. All three are created when you sign in and are removed when you sign out.

|---|---|---|---|
| jwt | Keeps you signed in after you log in. | Strictly necessary | 7 days |

Storage We Use on Your Device
These are stored by your browser rather than sent to us with each request. They stay until you clear this site's data.
| Name | Purpose | Category |
|---|---|---|
| cookieConsent | Remembers whether you accepted or declined advertising and analytics, so you are not asked again. | Strictly necessary |
| recentSearches | The last few searches you ran, shown back to you on the search page. | Functional |
| showThankYouPopup | Marks that an enquiry was submitted, so the confirmation shows once and not on every page after. | Functional |
| adHiddenUntilMobile / adHiddenUntil | Remembers that you closed the anchor advert, so it stays closed. | Functional |
| adblock-dismissed | Remembers that you dismissed the ad-blocker notice. | Functional |
Third Parties
These services set their own cookies under their own domains. Their names and lifetimes are set by them and can change, so we link to their policies rather than restate them here.
| Provider | Purpose | Category |

Your Choices
When you first visit, a banner lets you accept or decline the analytics and advertising categories. Your choice is stored in your browser and applied to the Google services above.
You can change that choice here at any time:
Checking your current setting…
You can also set your browser to refuse cookies outright, though parts of the site may then not work properly — signing in in particular depends on the strictly necessary cookies above. Clearing this site's data resets the choice too, and signs you out along with it.
Personalised advertising from Google can be controlled directly at adssettings.google.com.
