Cookie Policy

Last updated: 9 September 2026

1. What this covers

This explains what DriveGrid actually stores in your browser, and why. We've kept this to what's true today rather than a generic list of things a website might do — if something below stops applying, or something new is added, we'll update this page.

2. What we currently use

DriveGrid uses your browser's local storage (not traditional tracking cookies) for a small number of things, all of them functional:

• Staying signed in. When you log in, Supabase (our authentication provider) stores a session token in your browser so you don't have to sign in again on every page.
• Remembering your theme. If you switch to dark mode, that choice is remembered for next time.
• Remembering your saved searches. If you save a search on the classifieds page, the filters are stored so they're there when you come back.
• Remembering banner dismissals. If you close a banner (like our app-coming-soon notice), we remember not to show it again.
• Remembering your cookie choice. So we don't ask you again on every page.

3. What we don't currently use

DriveGrid does not currently use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or any third-party tracking. There's nothing on the site monitoring your browsing for marketing purposes. If that changes in future, this page will change first, and we'll ask for your consent where the law requires it.

4. About the cookie banner

Because everything we currently store is functional rather than optional tracking, choosing “Reject non-essential” and “Accept all” currently result in the same thing — there isn't yet a separate category of non-essential storage to turn off. We've kept both options on the banner because that will change the moment we add anything that isn't essential, and we'd rather the choice already be there than bolt it on later.

5. Third-party services

A few services we rely on may set their own cookies or storage, outside of our control:

• Stripe, when you pay for a vehicle history report. Payment happens on Stripe's own secure checkout page, not on drivegrid.co.uk, and Stripe sets cookies there under its own privacy policy.
• Supabase, our backend provider, for the authentication session described above.
• Google Fonts, to load the typefaces used across the site.

6. Controlling cookies through your browser

Most browsers let you block or delete stored data through their settings. Doing so may sign you out, reset your theme preference, or clear your saved searches, since those are the things this storage is used for.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this page as the site changes. Material changes will be reflected here with an updated date at the top.
