What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file a website saves in your browser. Sites use them to remember things between visits. Browsers also have a similar feature called local storage, which this site uses for one setting.
Cookies this site sets
| Name | Set by | What it's for | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor from another so visits can be counted | Up to 2 years |
_ga_75YP030XJJ | Google Analytics | Keeps a visit together as you move between pages | Up to 2 years |
Some browsers cut these shorter. They're analytics cookies. The site works the same without them.
Local storage
When you pick OK or Turn off on the analytics notice, we save that choice and its date in your browser's local storage under the name sc_consent. It stays there until you change it or clear your browser data. It's needed so we don't ask you again on every page.
What doesn't use cookies
- The calculators. What you type stays in your browser and isn't saved.
- Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts visits without cookies.
- The VIN check and the contact form.
Advertising cookies
There are no advertising cookies on this site today. When ads are shown, they'll come from Google AdSense, which may set its own cookies to choose and measure ads. Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland will be asked for consent first, and we'll list those cookies here.
How to turn cookies off
- Use , here or in the footer of any page. Turn off stops Google Analytics and deletes its cookies straight away.
- Turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser. We treat that signal as a request to turn analytics off.
- Block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
- Install Google's Analytics opt-out add-on, which works across every site.
Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland start with analytics cookies off. They're only set if you choose OK.
