Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026
This cookie policy explains how Cashier Compass uses cookies and similar technologies, what they are used for and how you can control them. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They allow the website to recognise your browser, remember your settings and understand how pages are used. Similar technologies, such as local storage or tracking pixels, work in a comparable way and are also covered by this policy.
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), non-essential cookies may only be stored on your device with your consent. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, because the website cannot work properly without them.
Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to function, for example to save your cookie choices or to keep the site secure. They cannot be switched off in the cookie settings.
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use Cashier Compass, such as which guides are viewed and how visitors move between pages. The information is used in aggregated or pseudonymised form to improve our content.
Functional cookies remember preferences you have chosen, for example display settings, so that you do not have to set them again on every visit.
Marketing cookies may be used when you follow a partner link. They allow an operator or affiliate network to recognise that you arrived via Cashier Compass. They are not used to collect your payment or account details.
