What Cookies Do On This Site
Cookies and similar browser technologies help MIBearings keep sessions working, protect the site, remember operational preferences, support checkout, and understand how the catalog and legacy URLs are being used.
MIBearings may also use long-lived first-party cookies to preserve cart contents and remember contact or shipping details so repeat visitors do not have to re-enter the same information on the same browser.
Some cookies are set directly by MIBearings-controlled systems, and others may be set by service providers involved in site delivery, security, analytics, payment, invoicing, and shipping workflows.
Types Of Cookies And Similar Technologies
Not every visitor will receive the same cookies. What is used can depend on which pages you visit, whether you search, request a quote, begin checkout, or complete payment through an outside provider.
- Essential cookies needed for sessions, routing, and form or checkout continuity
- First-party continuity cookies used to remember cart contents and saved quote or shipping fields on the same browser
- Security cookies and related signals used to detect abuse, bots, and suspicious traffic
- Performance and analytics cookies or identifiers used to understand traffic and site behavior
- Payment, billing, or checkout-related cookies used by providers involved in transaction flows
Third-Party Services
MIBearings uses outside technical providers that may place or rely on cookies or similar browser identifiers in connection with their services. This can include Cloudflare for site delivery and security, payment and billing providers such as Invoiced, Stripe, and PayPal, and related technical vendors involved in checkout and order handling.
Those providers control parts of their own cookie behavior and may change their implementations over time. Their own documentation and policies also apply.
How To Manage Cookies
Most browsers allow you to inspect, block, delete, or limit cookies. You can usually do this through your browser privacy or security settings.
Blocking essential or security-related cookies may interfere with site functionality, including quote forms, checkout, payment flows, and fraud-prevention checks.
