Your Garage LLC (“we,” “us,” “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (yourgarage.qa), mobile applications, and partner platforms. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and the choices available to you.
By continuing to use our platform, you consent to the use of essential cookies. Optional cookies require your explicit consent, which you can manage below or through the cookie banner that appears on your first visit.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you interact with the platform. We also use similar technologies including local storage (for client-side persistence), session storage, and pixel tags (for advertising measurement).
Cookie Categories
Essential Cookies
Required for the platform to function. These cookies handle authentication, session management, security, identity, and core infrastructure. They cannot be disabled without breaking the platform.
Functional Cookies
Enable enhanced personalization — your saved vehicles, recent searches, theme settings, Garage Buddy AI preferences, and A/B experiment assignments for feature improvements.
Analytics & Performance
Help us understand how you use the platform — page views, session duration, scroll depth, feature usage, and error tracking. Powers AI recommendations and platform improvements.
Marketing & Advertising
Used to measure advertising effectiveness, build retargeting audiences, and attribute conversions. Includes first-touch and last-touch attribution for campaign optimization. We never sell your personal data.
How We Use Cookies
Authentication & Security
Firebase Auth keeps you logged in. CSRF tokens protect form submissions. Anti-fraud signals detect bots and suspicious behavior. Anonymous device IDs enable secure session continuity.
Payment & Fraud Prevention
Stripe cookies enable secure card payments, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Fraud detection tracks click frequency, device fingerprints, and behavioral signals to protect your transactions.
Personalization & Experiments
Remember your language, region, currency, selected vehicle, search history, and AI assistant preferences. A/B experiments test new features to improve your experience.
Analytics & Performance
Google Analytics, session tracking, and Sentry help us understand usage patterns, diagnose errors, and measure page performance. Behavioral profiling powers product recommendations.
Attribution & Marketing
First-touch and last-touch attribution tracks how you discovered us. UTM parameters, click IDs, and referrer data help us measure campaign effectiveness and allocate ad budget responsibly.
Identity & Data Architecture
Cross-session identity resolution links your anonymous and authenticated activity. Google Consent Mode v2 ensures all data collection respects your privacy choices in real time.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by trusted third-party services that we integrate with. These providers have their own privacy policies:
