Analytics (optional, requires consent)
With your agreement we measure page visits to understand how the site is used and to improve it. Analytics, provided by Lovable, records which pages are visited, where visitors come from, their country and browser, how long they stay, page load speed and errors. It uses no cookies and stores nothing on your device, and it cannot identify you. Our own first-party page-view counter also runs without cookies. Detailed analytics data is kept for 90 days and daily summaries for up to one year.
Marketing
We do not currently use any advertising or marketing cookies, pixels or third-party trackers. If this changes, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy.
Managing your consent
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of every page. Rejecting optional analytics never affects registration, sign-in, machinery searches, listings or dashboards. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a rejection of optional analytics.
