# COOKIE POLICY

Last Updated: October 4, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how SnapShelf ("SnapShelf", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you access or use our website, seller dashboard, storefronts, and related services (collectively, the "Service").

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Cookies are small text files or similar identifiers that websites may store on your device through your web browser.

Cookies can help websites remember information, maintain sessions, provide security, understand how users interact with a website, and improve functionality.

SnapShelf may also use technologies similar to cookies, including browser storage, local storage, session storage, pixels, and other technical identifiers.

For simplicity, this policy refers to these technologies collectively as "cookies and similar technologies."

We may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

2.1 Essential Technologies

These technologies are necessary for SnapShelf to function properly.

They may be used to:

• Authenticate users.
• Maintain login sessions.
• Protect accounts.
• Maintain secure sessions.
• Remember authentication state.
• Prevent unauthorized access.
• Maintain basic application functionality.

Disabling technologies required for authentication or security may prevent you from accessing certain SnapShelf features, including seller dashboard functionality.

2.2 Preferences and Functionality

SnapShelf may use browser storage or similar technologies to remember certain preferences, such as:

• UI preferences.
• Selected settings.
• Navigation state.
• Display preferences.
• Other functionality-related settings.

These technologies help provide a more consistent experience when you return to the Service.

2.3 Analytics and Performance

SnapShelf may use analytics technologies to understand how users interact with our Service.

Depending on the features enabled, this may include information such as:

• Page views.
• Product views.
• Store visits.
• Button clicks.
• Referral information.
• Device or browser information.
• Session information.
• Performance and error information.

Analytics information may be used to provide Sellers with store insights, understand platform usage, identify technical problems, and improve SnapShelf.

Where reasonably possible, analytics may be aggregated or de-identified.

2.4 Security and Abuse Prevention

Cookies and similar technologies may also be used to help:

• Detect suspicious activity.
• Prevent unauthorized access.
• Protect accounts.
• Detect automated abuse.
• Identify security threats.
• Prevent fraud and misuse of the Service.

SnapShelf may use cookies, browser storage, or other authentication mechanisms to maintain authenticated sessions.

The exact technology used may vary depending on the version of the SnapShelf application, browser, device, security requirements, and implementation.

Authentication information is used to identify an authenticated user and maintain access to protected features.

SnapShelf does not use authentication technologies for the purpose of selling personal information.

Some features of SnapShelf may rely on third-party services that may use cookies or similar technologies.

These services may include providers used for:

• Payment processing.
• Analytics.
• Security.
• Authentication.
• Infrastructure.
• Error monitoring.
• Communications.
• Other technical functionality.

Third-party providers may collect information according to their own privacy policies and terms.

SnapShelf does not control the cookie practices of third-party websites or services that it does not operate.

SnapShelf storefronts may use essential technologies and, where enabled, analytics or performance technologies.

Information collected through storefront interactions may be used to provide store analytics to the relevant Seller and to operate, secure, and improve the SnapShelf platform.

Sellers may also place third-party links or integrations on their storefronts. Interacting with those third-party services may result in those services using their own cookies or tracking technologies.

Not all technologies used by SnapShelf are technically cookies.

For example, we may use browser local storage or session storage to store information required for application functionality or user preferences.

These technologies may perform functions similar to cookies and are therefore covered by this Cookie Policy.

Different cookies and similar technologies may remain on your device for different periods.

Some are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser or session.

Others may remain until they expire or are manually deleted.

The duration depends on the purpose of the technology and how the relevant feature is implemented.

Most modern web browsers allow you to control or delete cookies and similar stored information through their settings.

You may be able to:

• Block cookies.
• Delete existing cookies.
• Block third-party cookies.
• Receive notifications when cookies are used.
• Clear browser storage.

However, disabling or deleting essential cookies or browser storage may affect the functionality of SnapShelf.

For example, you may be unable to:

• Log in.
• Maintain an authenticated session.
• Access seller dashboard features.
• Use certain account functionality.

Some browsers provide "Do Not Track" or similar privacy signals.

Because there is currently no universally consistent technical standard for interpreting all such signals, SnapShelf may not respond to every browser-generated Do Not Track signal.

Where applicable law requires a particular response to a recognized privacy signal, we will comply with applicable requirements.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our technology, Service, legal requirements, or cookie practices.

When appropriate, we may notify users of material changes through the Service or another reasonable method.

The "Last Updated" date at the beginning of this policy indicates when it was most recently revised.
