Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate Motorcurator, keep you signed in, remember preferences, understand usage, and improve our services.
1. Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for core functionality such as authentication, session management, security (for example, OAuth state validation), and load balancing. The website cannot function properly without them.
Functional cookies
These cookies remember choices you make, such as cookie consent preferences, so we do not ask repeatedly for the same settings.
Analytics cookies
With your consent, we use privacy-oriented analytics (such as Vercel Analytics) to understand how visitors use our pages, which helps us improve performance and content. Analytics data is generally aggregated and does not directly identify you.

3. Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third-party providers that help us deliver authentication, hosting, or analytics. Their use is governed by their respective policies. When you sign in with Google, Google's terms and privacy policy apply to that authentication process.
