Makina Elektrike Cookie Policy

What we mean by cookies and similar technologies

• Cookies are small text files placed on your browser or device. Similar technologies include local storage, browser cache, analytics tags, and SDK-based identifiers.
• We use these technologies across public pages, login flows, favourites, dealer dashboards, analytics tooling, and embedded services such as maps.
• Some technologies are essential for security and core functionality, while others help us remember preferences or understand how the site is used.

Categories of technologies we use

• Strictly necessary technologies help with authentication, session continuity, fraud prevention, form security, and basic navigation.
• Functional technologies remember language preferences, favourites, dashboard state, and other convenience settings that improve repeat visits.
• Analytics and performance technologies help us measure page views, referral sources, usage patterns, browser information, and feature adoption so we can improve the platform.

Local storage and device-side preferences

• Makina Elektrike stores some preferences locally in the browser, including favourites for signed-out visitors and offline queue records created by operational tools.
• When you sign in, favourites may also be synced to your user profile in Firestore so they can follow your account across sessions and devices.
• If you clear browser data or switch devices, these locally stored preferences may be reset or removed.

Third-party and embedded services

• Third-party services such as Firebase, Google Analytics, Google Maps, hosting providers, social links, and embedded external resources may place or read their own cookies or identifiers.
• Those providers operate under their own terms and privacy notices, and their technologies may behave differently depending on your browser settings and regional controls.
• Opening external websites or social profiles from Makina Elektrike may result in additional cookies being set by those third parties.

Your choices

• Most browsers let you block, limit, or delete cookies and local storage through privacy or site-settings controls.
• If you disable essential technologies, parts of the platform may stop working correctly, including login, favourites, dashboard access, maps, or enquiry-related forms.
• Privacy modes, content blockers, and browser signals such as Do Not Track can also change how some features behave, but may not fully disable all third-party technologies.

Retention of cookies and similar data

• Session technologies usually expire when you close your browser, while persistent technologies can remain until they expire automatically or you remove them manually.
• Local browser storage may remain on your device until cleared, overwritten, or removed through browser settings.
• Retention periods can vary depending on whether the technology is operated by Makina Elektrike or by a third-party provider.

Policy updates and contact

• We may update this Cookie Policy when our tools, integrations, or regulatory obligations change.
• The version published on the website is the current version and should be reviewed periodically, especially if you use dealer dashboard or account features.
• If you have questions about cookies, browser storage, analytics, or tracking on Makina Elektrike, contact us at info@makinaelektrike.al.
