Cookie Policy
The cookies and similar technologies used on bad-credit-car.finance, what they do and how to change your choice.
How this site uses cookies
We keep it deliberately minimal. There are no advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, no data sold to anyone, and no third-party scripts at all unless you actively opt in.
What is set, and when
Strictly necessary
- PHPSESSID is set only on the enquiry form and admin pages. It carries the anti-forgery token that stops somebody else submitting the form on your behalf and remembers your answers if the form has to be redisplayed. It contains no personal information and expires when you close your browser. Ordinary pages set no cookie at all.
- bccf-attr (browser session storage, not a cookie) records the campaign labels from the link you arrived on and the pages you viewed, so we can tell where an enquiry came from. It contains no personal data, never leaves your device until you send an enquiry, and is cleared when you close the tab.
Analytics, off unless you accept
- Google Analytics 4 (_ga, _ga_*) loads only if you press "Accept analytics" on the cookie banner. Nothing from Google is downloaded before that point; declining loads no script at all and the site works identically. IP addresses are anonymised and advertising features are switched off. These cookies last up to two years.
- bccf-consent (browser local storage) records whether you accepted or declined, so we do not ask again on every page.
Changing your mind
Your choice is stored in your browser rather than on our servers. To change it at any time, use the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw consent, clear this site's data in your browser to remove any analytics cookies already set.
Third-party sites
The "full advert" links take you to our main showroom site, which has its own cookie policy. Vehicle photographs on this site are served from our own server.
