This page explains the cookies and similar technologies Stoop uses, and the choices you have.
Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 1, 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. Related technologies — localStorage and sessionStorage — work the same way: they let a site remember something between page loads. Stoop uses both sparingly.
2. What we use
Strictly necessary. An authentication token stored by our sign-in provider so you stay logged in and can reach your dashboard, listings, and messages. Without it you would have to sign in on every page.
Functional preferences. Small values such as your last ZIP code search or an in-progress listing draft, so the site behaves the way you left it. These stay in your browser.
Security. Short-lived values used to protect sign-in and form submissions against abuse.
3. What we do not use
- No third-party advertising cookies.
- No retargeting or conversion pixels.
- No cross-site behavioral profiling, and no sale or sharing of browsing data.
Because we do not track you across sites, there is nothing for a Global Privacy Control or "Do Not Track" signal to opt out of.
4. Third parties
Our hosting, authentication, and image storage providers may set cookies strictly to deliver those functions. If you sign in with Google, Google sets its own cookies under its privacy policy. If you follow a cross-post link to Craigslist, Nextdoor, OfferUp, or Facebook Marketplace, that site's cookie practices apply, not ours.
5. Your choices
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and clear site data for Stoop at any time. Blocking essential cookies will prevent signing in, saving a draft, or reading your messages. Because we use no advertising or analytics cookies, we do not display a consent banner.
6. Changes and contact
If we ever add non-essential cookies, we will update this page and add a way to manage your preferences before those cookies are set. See our Privacy Policy for the fuller picture, or reach us through the contact page.
