Cookies Policy

This section describes the use of cookies and similar technologies by barter. BV ("Barter" "we," "us," or "our") on our website at https://getbarter.com ("Website"). It explains what cookies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Website owners use cookies to make their websites work more efficiently and provide reporting information.

There are two types of cookies: first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set by the website owner (in this case, barter. BV), while third-party cookies are set by parties other than the website owner. Third-party cookies enable additional features or functionality to be provided on the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. These third parties can recognize your computer when you visit the website or other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use both first-party and third-party cookies for various purposes. Some cookies are essential for the technical operation of our website, and we refer to them as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies help us track and target the interests of our users to enhance their experience on our website. Third parties also use cookies on our website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes.

How can you control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences using the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to choose which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Please note that essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are necessary to provide you with the website's services.

The Cookie Consent Manager is accessible through the notification banner on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you can still use our website, but some functionality and areas may be restricted. You can also adjust your web browser settings to accept or refuse cookies.

The specific types of first-party and third-party cookies used on our website and their purposes are described in a table provided on the website. Please note that the specific cookies used may vary depending on the specific sections or features of the website you visit.
