Introduction
This Cache Policy (“Policy”) outlines how Bid Global International Auctioneers, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Colorado, hereinafter referred to as “Bid Global International Auctioneers,” manages caching for the Bid Global International Auctioneers website (the “Website”). The primary objective of this policy is to optimize website performance and augment the user experience while ensuring that the content remains current and up to date.
Caching Mechanisms
- Browser Caching
We employ browser caching to store frequently accessed static content, including images, stylesheets, and scripts, in users’ web browsers. This approach mitigates load times for returning visitors by allowing their browsers to retrieve cached data locally.
- Content Delivery Network (CDN)
We may utilize a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to disseminate cached content to multiple servers situated in various regions. This strategy serves to reduce server load and enhance load times for users across the globe, thereby promoting website responsiveness.
Cache Duration
- Static Content
Static content, which encompasses images, stylesheets, and scripts, is typically cached in users’ browsers for an extended duration. This prolonged caching period facilitates faster content retrieval for returning visitors, contributing to a more efficient and seamless user experience.
- Dynamic Content
Dynamic content, such as auction listings and real-time data, is generally either not cached or has a minimal caching duration. This deliberate approach ensures that users consistently receive the most up-to-date and accurate information, which is particularly critical for real-time data.
Cache Invalidation
- Automatic Cache Invalidation
We have implemented mechanisms to facilitate automatic cache invalidation and refreshment when updates or modifications transpire on the Website. This proactive approach guarantees that users invariably receive current and accurate information, reinforcing data integrity.
- Manual Cache Invalidation
In specific situations, we may resort to manual cache invalidation for certain cached content when exigent changes are made to the Website. This affords us the capability to ensure the immediate and precise dissemination of updated information, thereby addressing time-sensitive matters.
User Experience
- Logged-in Users
For users who are logged into their accounts, cached content is meticulously controlled and limited to non-sensitive static resources. This security measure safeguards user data and promotes data accuracy, ensuring that sensitive data remains secure and immune to unauthorized access.
Changes to this Cache Policy
We reserve the right to update this Cache Policy periodically to reflect modifications in our caching mechanisms or for other operational, technical, or user experience-related considerations. Users will be duly informed of any substantial revisions to this Policy through the posting of the updated Cache Policy on our Website.
