Cookie notice
Draft under legal review. This document is not yet in force. It is published so customers and approval boards can review it, and it may change before it takes effect.
This notice explains the cookies used on marsquared.com, as required by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR). Each MAR² product sets its own cookies, which are described in that product’s own notice.
Our approach
In shortWe use only strictly necessary cookies. No analytics, advertising or tracking cookies, so there is no cookie banner.
- A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser. We use cookies only where they are strictly necessary to provide something you ask for, such as signing in. PECR does not require consent for these cookies, so we do not show a consent banner.
- We do not use analytics, advertising, social media or other third-party tracking cookies, and we do not load third-party scripts that set them. Our fonts and images are served from our own domain.
- If we ever want to use cookies that are not strictly necessary, we will ask for your consent first and update this notice.
Cookies we set
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
login_state | Protects the sign-in hand-off to MAR² ID against forgery, by tying the reply from the sign-in service to the browser that started it. | Strictly necessary, first party, HTTP only | 10 minutes, deleted when sign-in completes |
mars_session | Keeps you signed in after you sign in, so the site can show your account and products. | Strictly necessary, first party, HTTP only | 8 hours, or until you sign out |
How to control cookies
- You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block these cookies you can still read the website, but you will not be able to sign in.
