Cookie Policy

At NexStorez, we believe in being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by online service providers to make their websites or services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies primarily to provide a secure and functional experience for our merchants. Our use of cookies falls into the following categories:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the NexStorez platform to function. For example, we use secure session cookies (via NextAuth) to keep you logged into your dashboard, authenticate your identity, and protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. Without these, you cannot access your store's backend.
• Functional Cookies: These cookies allow our platform to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features.
• Analytics and Performance Cookies: We may use these to understand how merchants interact with our platform (e.g., which pages are visited most often) so we can improve the user experience. These cookies collect data in an aggregated, anonymous format.

3. Third-Party Cookies

In some cases, we use trusted third parties that may also place cookies on your device when you use NexStorez:

• Payment Processing: We use Lemon Squeezy to handle secure subscription billing. Lemon Squeezy may use cookies during the checkout process to verify transactions, prevent fraud, and manage your billing portal session.

4. Cookies on Your Storefront

As a merchant using NexStorez, you are responsible for informing your own customers about any non-essential cookies or tracking scripts you choose to integrate into your storefront (e.g., Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel). You must ensure your store complies with applicable local and international cookie consent laws.

5. How to Manage Your Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject strictly necessary cookies, you will not be able to log in or manage your store on the NexStorez platform.
