Overview

1. Overview

Cookies help websites work. Some cookies are essential; others are optional.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are used to support website functionality, security, user preferences, and (when enabled) measurement tools such as analytics.

Key point
We keep cookie use minimal and only expand cookie categories when there’s a clear product reason.

2. Types of Cookies

Different cookies serve different functions.

Essential cookies
Needed for core site behavior and security. Without these, parts of the site may not work correctly.
Preference cookies
Remember choices you make (e.g., language or region) to improve usability where applicable.
Analytics cookies (optional)
Help us understand usage patterns so we can improve performance and content. These may require consent depending on your region.
Marketing cookies / pixels (optional)
Used for ads and retargeting. We do not use advertising pixels by default; if introduced, consent controls will apply.

3. Our Current Use

What we use right now and what we do not use.

Currently used
Cookies/technologies that support basic website security and reliability (e.g., abuse prevention, load balancing, core functionality).
Not currently used
Advertising/retargeting pixels and marketing cookies. If we add them later, we will update this policy and provide controls where required.
Analytics
If we enable analytics later (e.g., Google Analytics), we will implement consent where required by law and ensure non-essential cookies don’t load before consent where applicable.
Mobile apps
If you use a mobile app, it may use device identifiers and permissions differently than the website. See the Privacy Policy for details.
Transparency promise
If we change cookie behavior in a meaningful way, we update this policy and reflect it in the “Last updated” date.
Consent

4. Consent & Controls

Some regions require opt-in consent for non-essential cookies.

Cookie consent requirements depend on your jurisdiction. Where required, we will request consent before placing non-essential cookies (such as analytics or marketing cookies). Where consent is not required, we may still offer controls to manage optional cookies.

Essential cookies
These may be set without consent because they are needed for security and core functionality.
Optional cookies
Analytics and marketing cookies (if enabled) may require consent depending on applicable law.
Withdrawal
If we provide a cookie preferences tool, you can change your choices at any time. You can also manage cookies in your browser settings.
Law alignment
We aim to comply with NDPR principles and global privacy standards (including GDPR-style consent where applicable).
Browser

5. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through browser settings.

Most browsers let you delete cookies and block future cookies. You can also block third-party cookies in many browsers. Keep in mind that disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

Tip
If the website feels broken after blocking cookies, try enabling essential cookies or resetting site permissions for 6ride.
Vendors

6. Third-Party Services

Some third parties may set cookies if you use embedded features.

If we embed third-party services (e.g., video players, maps, chat widgets), those services may set their own cookies or collect device identifiers. We do not control third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the provider’s documentation where relevant.

Examples
Embedded videos, maps, customer support tools, payment provider pages, or social media embeds (if used).
Our rule
We only add third-party tools when they provide a clear product benefit and we evaluate privacy impact.
Signals

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers send DNT signals; responses vary.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Because there is no single industry standard for how to respond, responses vary. We evaluate signals and available controls where feasible.

Updates

8. Changes to This Policy

We update the “Last updated” date when this page changes.

Material changes
If changes materially affect user understanding, we may provide additional notice through the site or apps where feasible.
Automation note
Set NEXT_PUBLIC_POLICY_BUILD_DATE=YYYY-MM-DD in your deployment environment when you update this page to reflect the current date.

Reminder
