PropertyZoom Cookie Policy
Last updated: 11 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how PropertyZoom ("PropertyZoom", "we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on property-zoom.com and our associated apps (together, the "Platform"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, phone or tablet when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, work more efficiently, and to provide information to the owners of a site. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage and software development kits (SDKs) used in our mobile apps — we refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
2. Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep you signed in and remember your preferences between visits
- Understand how visitors use the Platform, so we can improve it
- Remember your recent searches, saved properties and search alerts
- Show you more relevant property listings and advertising, on and off our Platform
- Measure the performance of our marketing campaigns
- Keep the Platform secure and detect fraudulent activity
3. Categories of cookies we use
· Category · Purpose · Can you opt out? ·
· --- · --- · --- ·
· Strictly necessary · Required for core functionality such as logging in, submitting enquiries to agents, and remembering your cookie preferences. The Platform will not work properly without these. · No — these are essential to the service ·
· Performance and analytics · Help us understand how visitors interact with the Platform (e.g. pages viewed, search terms used, time on site) so we can identify and fix issues and improve the experience. · Yes ·

4. First-party and third-party cookies
- First-party cookies are set directly by PropertyZoom.
- Third-party cookies are set by our partners, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, and social media platforms, when you interact with features embedded in our Platform (for example, a "share" button or an embedded map).
We work with a limited number of trusted third parties for analytics and advertising purposes. These partners may combine cookie data with other information you have provided to them or that they have collected from your use of their other services.
5. How long do cookies last?
- Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (typically between 30 days and 24 months) or until you delete them.
6. Managing your cookie preferences
When you first visit property-zoom.com, you will be shown a cookie banner where you can accept or reject non-essential cookies and manage your preferences by category. You can change your preferences at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of every page.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting cookies. Please note that if you disable certain cookies, some parts of the Platform — such as saving properties or receiving personalised alerts — may not work as intended. Most browsers allow you to:
- View the cookies stored on your device and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from particular sites
- Block all cookies from being set
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Because browsers differ, please check the "Help" menu of your specific browser to find out how to manage your cookie settings.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. As there is currently no industry-agreed standard for how to respond to DNT signals, our Platform does not currently respond to them, and we rely instead on the cookie preference controls described above.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically to stay informed.
