1. What Cookies We Use
We use a small number of cookies, split into two categories:
- Strictly necessary — required for the platform to function and cannot be
switched off:
laravel_session— keeps you signed in and remembers your session as you move between pages.XSRF-TOKEN— a security (CSRF) token that protects forms and requests on the platform from being forged by another site.- Google reCAPTCHA (
_GRECAPTCHAand related) — set by Google on our login, registration, password-reset, and demo-request forms to tell human visitors from bots. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. sales_agent_refandsales_agent_scan— set for 30 days when you visit a seller's store or a product page through one of their Sales Agents' marketing QR codes/links, so that if you buy something from that store within those 30 days, the sale can be correctly credited to that Sales Agent. They hold only an internal reference id, no personal information about you.
- Analytics — help us understand how the platform is used so we can improve it:

- Google Analytics (
We do not use third-party advertising or retargeting cookies, and we do not sell data collected through cookies.
2. Managing Cookies
Because the necessary cookies are required to keep you signed in and to secure the platform, you cannot use most of the platform's features with them disabled. You can control or delete Google Analytics cookies through your browser settings, or opt out of Google Analytics entirely using Google's browser add-on. Blocking analytics cookies does not affect your ability to use the platform.
3. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy if the cookies we use change. Material changes will be announced on the platform and the "Last updated" date above will change.
