Last updated on: 14/04/2026

At Catawiki, we use cookies and similar technologies on our website and app. This Cookie Notice explains what these technologies are, how and why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

We handle any personal data collected through cookies in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You can find the definitions for capitalised terms in our Terms of Use.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of data stored on your device when you visit a website or use an app. They help us recognise your device, remember your preferences, and ensure our platform works properly. We also use similar technologies, such as scripts, pixels, and device identifiers. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies” in this notice.

How long do Catawiki’s cookies remain active?

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain on your device for a longer period (persistent cookies). You can find the specific retention periods in our cookie overview.

Which cookies do we use?

We use different types of cookies depending on their purpose. You can find a full overview in our cookie overview.

Essential Cookies. These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our Online Marketplace and cannot be switched off. They enable core functions such as logging in, processing payments, maintaining security, and ensuring the platform works reliably. Without these cookies, key parts of our services would not function properly.

Functional Cookies. These cookies support the performance and usability of our website. They help us deliver content efficiently, maintain system stability, and enable features such as real-time updates. They are also used to monitor technical performance (for example, detecting errors) and to carry out limited testing to improve our services. These cookies are not used for advertising purposes. Where required, they are based on our legitimate interest in providing a secure and reliable service.

Marketing Cookies. Marketing cookies are used to understand your interests and show you relevant content and advertisements, both on our platform and on third-party websites.

These cookies track your interactions (such as lots you view or click on) and may be set by us or by third parties. They also help limit how often you see the same advertisement and measure the effectiveness of campaigns.

Marketing cookies are only placed with your consent.

Your preferences are stored per Catawiki domain. Disabling cookies on one domain (e.g. catawiki.com) does not automatically mean they are disabled for our other domains as well.

How can you control the use of cookies?

Third-party cookies. Some cookies are placed by third parties. You can manage these via their respective websites or via industry tools such as: http://www.networkadvertising.org/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ .

The Catawiki app

Our app uses similar technologies to ensure functionality, security, and performance, and to send notifications where enabled. You can manage these settings within the app.

Could this Cookie Policy be amended?

We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time. The latest version will always be available on our website.
