Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 1, 2025
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use the site. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and session storage.
2. How Kurbme uses cookies
Kurbme uses a limited set of cookies and browser storage — strictly for operating the platform. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioural tracking cookies, or sell any cookie-derived data to third parties.
| Category | Purpose | Can I opt out? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session management, authentication token, CSRF protection. Required to keep you signed in and your booking data secure. | No — these are required to use the platform. |
| Functional | Remembering your preferences (e.g. saved addresses, booking draft state). | Partially — clearing browser storage removes these. |
| Analytics | Aggregated, anonymised usage metrics to understand which features are used. No personally identifiable data is included. | Yes — contact us to opt out. |
| Third-party | Google Maps (for address geocoding and live tracking). Stripe (for payment processing). These services may set their own cookies per their privacy policies. | Refer to Google's and Stripe's cookie policies. |
3. Google Maps
We use the Google Maps JavaScript API to display maps on the booking flow and live-tracking page. Google may set cookies as part of this service. For details, see Google's Privacy Policy.
4. Stripe
All payment processing is handled by Stripe. Stripe may use cookies and device fingerprinting as part of fraud detection and PCI-compliant payment flows. For details, see Stripe's Privacy Policy.
5. Managing cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from signing in or completing a booking.
Most browsers provide instructions for managing cookies in their Help section. You can also clear local storage and session storage through browser developer tools (Application → Storage).
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the platform after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
