Cookie Policy
Draft — pending legal review. This text explains how Going Once Cars will work. It is not final and may change before launch.
Our website, web marketplace and apps only use the cookies and similar storage they need to work: keeping you signed in, remembering your language and keeping payments and ID checks secure. We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Local storage and app storage work in a similar way. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of them. Essential cookies are needed for the service to work; optional ones, such as analytics or advertising, need your consent.
2. On our website
- Your language choice and the plan you picked before signing in (browser storage).
- Your sign-in session, shared by your account page and our web marketplace (browser storage, until you sign out or it expires).
- The current GOC Assistant chat when you are not signed in, so the assistant can follow the conversation.
- Stripe’s checkout and billing pages, which set their own cookies to prevent fraud and keep payments secure.
- Google Fonts, which receives your IP address to deliver our fonts but doesn't set cookies, and our hosting provider’s server logs, which are not stored on your device.
3. In our apps
- Your sign-in session and app settings, such as your language and country.
- A push notification token, once you allow notifications.
- App updates delivered by Expo.
- Stripe (when you save a card or pay) and Didit (when you verify your ID), which may use cookies or similar storage to keep payments and checks secure.
4. What we don’t use
We don’t use analytics, advertising, social media or tracking cookies, and we don’t build advertising profiles. If we ever add optional cookies, we will ask for your consent first where the law requires it, and update this policy.
5. How to control them
In your browser you can see, delete and block cookies and local storage; if you block essential storage, you may not be able to sign in, pay or verify your ID. In the apps you can sign out, clear the app’s data or uninstall it, and turn push notifications on or off in your device settings or under Profile → Notifications.
