Cookie Policy
This policy explains how Mastersel uses cookies and similar technologies, what they do, and how you can control them.
1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners.
Cookies may be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They can be set by the website you visit ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services embedded on the page.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, and pixel tags for the same purposes described in this policy.
2. Cookies we use
We group cookies by their purpose:
| Category | Purpose | Consent required |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Core site functionality, security, and navigation | No |
| Analytics | Usage statistics and performance monitoring | Yes |
| Functional | Enhanced features and personalization | Yes |
| Advertising | Measuring website visits, registrations and confirmed bookings from LinkedIn and Meta advertising | Yes |
| Advertising | Measuring website visits, registrations and confirmed bookings from ChatGPT (OpenAI) advertising | Yes |
3. Essential cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, setting preferences, or filling in forms.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| session_id | Maintains your authenticated session | Session |
| csrf_token | Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
| cookie_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | 12 months |
4. Analytics cookies
Analytics helps us understand visits, clicks and signup steps. Before you make a choice, we measure visits only without cookies. Cookies and full analytics start only if you choose Accept all.
| Cookie name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique visitors | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Maintains session state | 2 years |
We use Google Analytics and PostHog (EU region). PostHog provides heatmaps, session recordings and conversion funnels. Registration steps can be replayed with all entered values and personal summaries masked. Agreement contents, chat contents, other forms and embedded booking frames are excluded from recordings. With analytics consent, we save your email address to your PostHog profile when you continue past the account step, and your company name and contact phone number when you continue past company details, even if you do not finish registration. This helps us understand registration progress. Passwords, bank details and chat messages are not sent to PostHog. You can stop future collection through Cookie preferences in the footer. We also use the referring website’s domain to understand where visits come from; we do not send its page path or query parameters. With consent, we also measure page loading, responsiveness and layout stability, record redacted uncaught errors, and count email, phone and booking-link clicks. Error messages and contact-link contents are not sent.
Before you make a choice, nothing is stored on your device. Google Analytics counts visits without cookies, and PostHog connects the pages of one visit using a code made from your IP address and browser. The code changes every day and does not reveal your IP address. After Accept all, PostHog keeps your analytics identifier in local storage (ph_*) instead of a cookie. If you choose Essential only, analytics stops and only your choice is remembered. Analytics data is sent through mastersel.com to PostHog (EU region).
5. Functional cookies
Functional cookies enable enhanced features and personalization, such as remembering your language preference or region. If you do not allow these cookies, some features may not work properly.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| locale | Stores your preferred language | 12 months |
| region | Stores your selected region | 12 months |
6. Third-party cookies
