MOTOR CARS AUCTIONS LIMITED

Cookie Policy

Last updated: 2 November 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how MOTOR CARS AUCTIONS LIMITED uses cookies and similar technologies on the MOTOR CARS AUCTIONS website when you browse lots, register, verify identity, place bids or use Buy Now.

For how we process personal data more generally, see our Privacy Policy. For platform rules, see our Terms and Conditions.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your session, keep you signed in securely, and protect forms against abuse. Similar technologies (such as local storage) may be used for the same purposes.

2. Cookies we use

Essential / strictly necessary

These are required for MOTOR CARS AUCTIONS to work. They cannot be switched off if you use the service. Examples include:

  • Session / login cookies so you stay signed in while browsing auctions and your account.
  • Security cookies (including CSRF tokens) that protect registration, login, bidding and contact forms.
  • Cookies needed to remember flash messages (for example success or error notices after a form).

Preferences

Where offered, preference cookies may remember choices such as language or UI settings so you do not have to reselect them on every visit.

Analytics (if enabled)

We may use limited analytics cookies to understand aggregate traffic (for example which pages are visited most) and to improve the catalogue and auction experience. Where UK law requires consent for non-essential analytics, we will only set those cookies after you agree.

3. Why we use cookies on this site

  • To keep bidder accounts secure during live timed auctions and Buy Now checkout steps.
  • To prevent form spam and unauthorised actions on bids, registration and contact messages.
  • To operate core features such as login state and account checklists (identity / fee status).
  • Optionally, to measure site performance in aggregate — not to sell your data.

4. Managing cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings (block, delete or alert you before cookies are stored). If you block essential cookies, parts of MOTOR CARS AUCTIONS — including login, bidding and account areas — may not work correctly.

Guidance on cookies and privacy tools is available from the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

5. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy when we change how the platform works or when the law requires it. The “Last updated” date above will be revised when we publish changes.

6. Questions

Questions about cookies on this site can be sent via our Contact page or email admin@127.0.0.1.
