What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website function properly and provide information to the site owners.
Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies (Required)
These cookies are necessary for the platform to function and cannot be disabled.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
next-auth.session-token | Maintains your login session | 30 days |
next-auth.csrf-token | Prevents cross-site request forgery | Session |
next-auth.callback-url | Stores redirect URL after login | Session |
Analytics Cookies (Optional — Only With Your Consent)
If you accept cookies via the banner shown on your first visit, we use Microsoft Clarity and Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site — Clarity records anonymised sessions (mouse movement, clicks, and scrolling) so we can see which parts of the site are confusing or broken; GA4 reports aggregate traffic and behaviour (pages viewed, time on site, general location by country/region). Clarity masks the contents of every input field by default — anything you type into a form (name, email, phone, password) is never captured, regardless of Clarity’s masking mode; GA4 does not capture form field contents at all. Neither runs unless you accept; declining, or not responding to the banner, means no analytics cookies are ever set. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser’s site data for spaintrades.es, which resets the banner on your next visit.
