Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our website, and to enable you to use some of its features. Without these cookies, the services that have been asked for cannot be provided. These cookies are only used to provide you with those services.
Functional Cookies
These are cookies that are designed for purposes such as enhancing a website’s functionality. These are either not strictly essential for the website or functionality which you have requested to work, or are cookies which serve non-essential purposes in addition to their essential purpose. We use the following functional cookies on our website:
– First party, persistent cookies to recognize you when you use our IDX search and personalize it to you. These cookies are: sidx_token. These cookies expire after 2 years.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to our website and how users use our website and services. The information gathered does not identify any individual visitor. Information gathered may include the number of visitors to our website, the websites that referred them to our websites, whether they have visited the website before, and other similar information. We use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its own cookies. You can find more information on how Google Analytics and how Google protects your information at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ .
The analytics cookies used by our analytics provider have the following names: [_ga, _gat, _utma, _utmt, _utmb, _utmc, _utmz and _utmv].

IDX Data Cookies
Cookie
Firstly, Showcase IDX’s cookies should be considered Essential Cookies on your website. This is an important distinction. Here’s a very easy to understand guide about how the EU is now treating cookies, from Wired.
Persistent Cookies
The Showcase IDX cookies are persistent.
First Party Cookies
This can be a little confusing, but it’s by which domain drops the cookie, not that it’s from a 3rd party… so the Showcase IDX cookies are cookies placed on your device by our website domain.
List of Cookies
The main cookie set by Showcase IDX does not contain any personally identifiable information and just a token that we use to tell who is who based on the session. This lets us do a bunch of fancy stuff. It’s remarkably private. We do store some information about the user before they sign up, but that is in the browser cache of their own device and it’s accessed without going through or onto our servers. We also track analytics on our search pages through using Google Analytics. This lets us see how the IDX is being used, and we use this information to make educated fact-based decisions that improve the product. It is anonymized and we cannot see what individual sites or customer are doing. Only the aggregate of all instances of our product.
| Name of Cookie | Essential or Non-essential? | Type of cookie | First or Third party? | Session or Persistent? | Expiry Time | Purpose |
| sidx_token | Essential | Session Controller | First Party | Persistent | 20 years | IDX |
| _ga & _gid | Non-Essential | Tracking | Third Party | Persistent | 24 hours | Google Analytics |
