This Cookie Policy explains how CashPicks uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our site. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy and uses plain language so you know exactly what's going on — and what choices you have.
01 What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device when you visit. They're widely used to make sites work, to remember your preferences, and to help site owners understand how their pages are used. We also use similar technologies like pixels and local storage — for simplicity, we call them all "cookies" here.
02 Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep the site working properly and securely
- Remember your preferences and choices
- Understand how visitors use CashPicks so we can improve it
- Measure whether our content and pages are helpful
We do not use cookies to collect sensitive financial information, and we never sell the data cookies collect.
03 Types of cookies we use
Cookies on our site fall into a few categories. Essential cookies are always on because the site can't work without them. The rest are optional — you control them.
04 Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by trusted third parties who provide services for us — for example, analytics providers that help us measure site performance. These partners have their own privacy and cookie policies. When you click through to a lender's website, that lender sets its own cookies under its own policy, which we don't control.
05 How long cookies last
There are two lifespans:
- Session cookies — temporary, and deleted automatically when you close your browser
- Persistent cookies — stay on your device for a set period (or until you delete them) so the site can remember you on your next visit
06 Managing or disabling cookies
You're in control. You can manage optional cookies through our cookie banner when you first visit, and change your mind any time. You can also control cookies through your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete them.
Keep in mind: if you block essential cookies, parts of CashPicks may not work properly. Most browsers explain how to manage cookies in their Help or Settings section — look for "Privacy" or "Cookies".
07 Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There's no consistent industry standard for how sites should respond to DNT yet, so we currently treat your cookie-banner choices as the way you tell us your preferences. If a recognised standard is adopted, we'll update our approach.
08 Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, our practices, or the law. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Please check back occasionally to stay informed.
