Cookie policy
Last updated: 26 August 2026
Two kinds of cookie are set on this site. One is required if you want to stay signed in. The other only exists if you said yes.
Strictly necessary
| Name | Set by | What it does | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
session |
berlinflats.net | Remembers that you signed in. It holds a signed reference to your account and nothing else. Without it, every page would ask you to sign in again. | 30 days, or when you sign out |
We do not ask permission for this one. It is required to deliver a service you explicitly asked for, which is the exception in the ePrivacy rules. If you block it, you cannot sign in.
Analytics
We count page views ourselves, on our own server. It does not wait for your answer to the banner, because there is nothing to consent to: it sets no cookie, stores nothing on your device, and keeps nothing that identifies you or ties one visit to the next. It is not in the table below for the same reason. Everything else on this page does wait.
Analytics cookies, only with your consent
We advertise this site, and Google Ads is how we tell which adverts brought someone here. Its tag loads on every page, but until you press Accept it runs in a mode that stores nothing on your device and sets no cookies. It reports an anonymous, cookieless signal that a page was viewed, and nothing that identifies you or follows you between visits. Press Accept and it may then set the cookie below. Press Decline and it never does.
If you accept, we also load Microsoft Clarity, which records anonymised session replays and heatmaps so we can see where people get stuck. Clarity masks the contents of form fields by default, so what you type into the search box or your settings is not captured. It does record what is on screen, which on the feed includes listing text.
| Name | Set by | What it does | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
_clck |
Microsoft Clarity | A random ID so repeat visits from this browser count as one visitor | 1 year |
_clsk |
Microsoft Clarity | Ties the page views in one visit together | 1 day |
_gcl_au |
Google Ads | Records that you arrived from one of our adverts, so we can tell which ones are worth paying for. It is read on this site only. | 90 days |
Clarity is not loaded until you press Accept. The Google Ads tag loads either way but, as above, stores nothing unless you accept. If you press Decline we do not ask again on this browser.
Changing your mind
Use the button below. It forgets your choice on this browser and brings the banner back, so you can answer differently. You can also delete the cookies through your browser’s site-data settings at any time.

What we don’t do
We have deliberately switched off the part that follows you elsewhere: no Google Signals, no ads personalisation, no audience lists built from your visit, no remarketing, and nothing sold to anyone. Ads personalisation stays off even if you accept. It is not something we offer, so it is not something we ask you to agree to. The cookie above is ours and is read on this site only. See the privacy policy for everything that is not a cookie.
