cba_prefs | Your currency and area unit (sqft or sqm). |
cba_recent, cba_last_search | Your recent searches, so you can go back to them. |

cba_visits, cba_v | How many visits you have made, counted once per browser session. |
cba_gptw_seen, cba_a2hs, lx_pop, aw_seen | Remember that a pop-up or banner was already shown, so we do not show it again. |
We count visits ourselves, with no outside analytics service and no cookie. While you browse, your browser sends our own server the page you are on, the website or campaign that sent you, your language and whether you use a phone, tablet or computer, plus taps on WhatsApp, call, viewing and enquiry buttons, searches and saved homes. Your IP address is not stored: only a scrambled, shortened form used to filter out robots. Page views are deleted after 90 days; only daily totals are kept.
| Name | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
cba_vid | Local storage | A random visitor number made by your browser. It lets us count returning visitors and, if you send us a form, show your advisor which homes you looked at first. |
cba_sess | Session storage | A random visit number and where the visit came from (the referring website and any campaign tags). A new one starts after 30 minutes without activity or when you close the tab. |
cba_staff | Local storage | Staff only. Set when a team member signs in, so their own visits are not counted. |
These numbers are anonymous, stay with us and are never used to follow you on other websites, so your browser's Do Not Track setting does not switch them off. To start again as a new visitor, clear this site's data in your browser.
Keep forms secure and remember your currency, units and saved homes. These do not track you across other sites.
Google Analytics helps us see which pages are useful. It uses anonymised data.
If we run ads, campaign cookies tell us which ads brought you to the site.
You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Saved homes and preferences will be reset.
