Cookie Policy for Carjudge.com
Last updated: September 2, 2026
1. Scope and definitions
This policy explains how Carjudge.com uses cookies, browser storage, tags, pixels and server-side measurement on CarJudge.
A cookie is a small value stored by the browser and sent with web requests. localStorage persists until it is deleted,
whereas sessionStorage normally lasts for the current tab. Tags and server-side processing can transmit data without
setting a cookie.
We classify these technologies as strictly necessary, functionality, analytics or advertising. Optional analytics and advertising technologies are activated according to your choices where consent is required. For more information about personal data, recipients and your rights, read our Privacy Policy.

3. Managing or withdrawing your choice
Use the cookie banner on your first visit or the Cookie preferences link in the website footer at any time. Refusing or withdrawing an optional category updates Consent Mode and prevents future optional tags governed by that category; Google Analytics, Google Ads and Meta Pixel cookies configured for automatic deletion, along with certain TikTok cookies configured the same way, are also deleted. Strictly necessary cookies remain active because the site cannot provide the requested security, navigation, authentication or payment functions without them.
You can also delete cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Removing cc_cookie causes the site to
ask for your choices again. Blocking all cookies may prevent sign-in, secure forms, checkout and other core features.
4. Changes and contact
We review this inventory when our application or tag configuration changes. Third parties may change their cookie names or durations independently; this page states what we observed and configured on the update date above.
