Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on our website and mobile app to power features like saved searches, favorite properties, analytics, fraud prevention, and personalized ads.

Last updated: August 30, 2025

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help websites and apps work properly and securely. They can remember your preferences, help you log in, measure performance, and show relevant content. Some cookies are set by us (“first-party cookies”) and others by third parties (“third-party cookies”).

How we use cookies

  • Core site functionality (Necessary): Keep you signed in, load pages, prevent abuse/fraud, and apply security.
  • Preferences: Remember language, currency, filters, saved searches, and view settings for properties, vehicles, land plots, villas, and more.
  • Analytics: Understand which listings and neighborhoods users view, improve search quality and app performance, and fix issues.
  • Advertising & marketing: Show more relevant property ads, measure campaign performance, and limit repetitive ads.
  • Maps & media: Embed maps, panoramic tours, and videos on listing pages.

Types of cookies we use

Below are examples. Actual cookies may vary as we improve our product. Durations are counted from the last visit.

How to manage cookies

You can adjust your preferences at any time using the panel. Most browsers also let you delete or block cookies. If you block necessary cookies, parts of the site or app may not work as expected (e.g., sign-in, saved items).

Third-party cookies

We use service providers for analytics, advertising, maps, payments, and anti-fraud. These partners may set cookies and read your IP address or device identifiers. Examples include Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, and map providers (e.g., Google Maps or Mapbox). Where required, we ask for your consent before loading these tools.

Similar technologies (SDKs & mobile IDs)

In our mobile apps we may use SDKs that collect information similar to cookies (e.g., Advertising ID) to measure app usage and deliver ads. You can reset or limit ad tracking in your device settings.

Retention & security

Cookie data is retained for as long as necessary for its stated purpose and in line with the durations above. We apply security controls to prevent unauthorized access and we regularly review our vendors.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our use of cookies or legal requirements. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top and, where appropriate, notify you in the app or by email.
