Cookie availability may vary based on your browser settings, consent choices, location, and active campaigns. Where consent or opt-out rights apply, non-essential cookies are handled through our cookie controls, and you may withdraw previously given consent at any time.
This Cookie Policy explains how MAXPlaces Marketing, LLC (“MAXPlaces,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at maxplaces.com (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve performance, remember preferences, and provide reporting information. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, web beacons, SDKs, JavaScript libraries, and local storage. In this policy, we refer to all of these as “cookies” or “similar technologies.”
Some cookies expire when you close your browser (“session cookies”), while others remain until deleted or until they expire automatically (“persistent cookies”). Cookies may also be first-party cookies set by MAXPlaces or third-party cookies set by providers that deliver services on or through the Site.
Technologies used to communicate website preferences to AI systems, such as llms.txt or similar machine-readable files, do not store information on your device and are not considered cookies or similar tracking technologies under this Cookie Policy.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies to operate and secure the Site, understand how visitors use it so we can improve it, remember your preferences, troubleshoot issues, measure campaign performance, and (where applicable) support marketing, advertising, remarketing, and conversion attribution. This may include analytics and session analytics tools such as Microsoft Clarity. Some cookies are essential for the Site to function; others are optional and used only where permitted or with your consent.
3. Legal basis for using cookies
Where required by applicable law, we rely on your consent before placing non-essential cookies or similar technologies on your device. For EEA/UK visitors, non-essential cookies are not placed until consent is provided where such consent is required.
Strictly necessary cookies are used based on our legitimate interest in operating, securing, and delivering the Site, or because they are required to provide functionality you request. Advertising cookies may constitute “sharing” of personal information under California law where they are used for cross-context behavioral advertising or similar purposes.
4. Types of cookies we use
Required for the Site to function, such as authentication, fraud prevention, security, load balancing, basic navigation, and consent management. These cannot be switched off in our systems.
Help us measure performance, identify popular pages, troubleshoot errors, understand clicks, scrolling, and session activity, and improve the Site - for example, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity.
Remember choices and preferences to enhance your experience, such as language settings, accessibility preferences, saved form inputs, or other convenience features.
Used to deliver and measure relevant advertising, support remarketing, attribute conversions, measure audiences, and limit how often you see an ad. These may constitute "sharing" under California law when used for cross-context behavioral advertising.
5. Cookies on our Site
The cookie inventory below is maintained following periodic reviews of the Site and may change as services are added or removed. The Site may use the following cookies and similar technologies depending on your settings, consent choices, browser configuration, and active campaigns.

6. Third-party cookies and embedded content
Some cookies are set by third parties that provide services on or through our Site, including analytics, session analytics, advertising, CRM, chat, video, embedded content, maps, email, marketing automation, payment, and security providers such as Google, Microsoft Clarity, Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube, Vimeo, and Google Maps. These third parties process data under their own privacy policies, and we use data-processing terms with providers where applicable.
Embedded content, such as videos, maps, social media posts, or third-party widgets, may behave as if you visited the provider's website directly and may set cookies or collect information depending on your browser settings and consent choices.
Some future Site features may incorporate AI-powered functionality supplied by third-party providers. Where such functionality places cookies or similar technologies, those technologies will be subject to this Cookie Policy and the applicable provider's privacy practices.
7. Your choices and how to manage cookies
You have several ways to control cookies:
- Consent banner / preference center: use our cookie controls on the Site to accept or reject non-essential cookies, update your preferences, or withdraw previously given consent at any time.
- Browser settings: most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent portions of the Site from functioning correctly.
- Opt-out tools: you can opt out of certain analytics and advertising cookies via provider tools (e.g., the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on) and industry opt-out pages (e.g., the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative).
8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Because there is no common industry standard for “Do Not Track” (DNT), we do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. We honor recognized opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) where implemented and required by applicable law.
9. Cookie duration, data retention, and international processing
Cookie duration describes how long a cookie may remain on your device. It does not necessarily describe how long related personal information may be retained by MAXPlaces or third-party providers. For more information about personal information retention, see our Privacy Policy.
Information collected through cookies and similar technologies may be processed in the United States or other countries that may not provide the same level of protection as your home jurisdiction, including by third-party analytics, advertising, and technology providers.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our practices or applicable laws change. We will post the updated version with a new “Last updated” date.
