Cookie Policy

Last updated: 8 August 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how findrent.nl ("Findrent", "we", "us") uses cookies.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device. Cookies are used to make websites work, to keep you logged in, and sometimes to measure how a site is used.

Cookies we use

Findrent currently uses only strictly necessary cookies. These are required for the Service to function and cannot be switched off:

  • Session and login cookies – keep you signed in as you move between pages.
  • Security cookies – protect the Service against fraud and misuse (for example against cross-site request forgery).

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for, EU and Dutch law do not require us to ask for your consent to use them, and we do not show a cookie consent banner.

Analytics – and why it needs no cookie

We measure how the Service is used, so we know which pages people find useful and whether new features work. We do this with Umami, privacy-friendly analytics software that we run on our own server. It is not a third-party service: your visit is not sent to Google, to an advertising network, or to anyone else.

Our analytics sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device. There is no identifier saved in your browser and nothing to read back on your next visit. Instead, visits are grouped together using a value our own server works out from technical information your browser sends with every request anyway (such as your IP address and browser type), combined with a secret that we change at the start of every month. We do not store your IP address itself. Because that secret changes each month, the value changes with it, so the same browser cannot be recognised from one month to the next. Within a single month, and on a connection that does not change, visits from the same browser are grouped under the same value: that is what lets us tell a returning visit from a new one, and it is the full extent of what the value does.

If you are signed in, we attach a pseudonymous account identifier – a random internal reference, never your email address – to your analytics sessions, so we can see how the Service is used by registered users; it is stored on our own server alongside the analytics data, and nothing about it is saved on or read from your device.

Because we do not store or read anything on your device, EU and Dutch cookie rules do not require your consent for this, which is why you still see no cookie banner. We describe the analytics data itself, and your rights over it, in our Privacy Policy.

We do not use session recording, heat mapping, or any feature that captures what an individual visitor does on a page.

What we do not use

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, we do not use third-party analytics services, and we do not share any data with advertising networks.

If this changes

If in the future we introduce cookies or other technologies that are not strictly necessary, we will update this policy and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent before they are used – for example through a consent banner where you can accept or decline.

Managing cookies

You can delete or block cookies through your browser settings at any time. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Service – such as staying logged in – may not work properly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and change the "last updated" date above.
