Cookie Policy

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 to make websites function properly, improve user experience, and provide information to site owners. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on that website.

2. How We Use Cookies

Sitenyx uses cookies for the following purposes:

• Essential Cookies: Required for core platform functionality including authentication, security, session management, and CSRF protection. These cookies cannot be disabled as the service cannot function without them.
• Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use the platform. Sitenyx does not use Google Analytics or any other third-party analytics tool. We measure it ourselves, without cookies: an anonymous call to our own endpoint (/api/e) plus technical page-load measurements. The measurement uses a random session id held in your browser's session storage (sessionStorage) — it applies only to the current tab, is deleted when the tab closes, and is never shared with third parties.
• Preference Cookies: Remember your settings such as language preference, theme (light/dark mode), and display options to provide a personalized experience.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Our platform may include cookies from trusted third-party services: Google Analytics (analytics and usage reporting), Stripe (secure payment processing), and Cloudflare (performance and security). Each third-party service has its own cookie policy. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies for more information about how they handle your data.

4. Cookie Duration

Cookies on our platform fall into two categories based on their lifespan:

• Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. These are used for authentication and maintaining your session state.
• Persistent Cookies: Remain on your device for a set period — with us, between 30 days and 12 months. They are used for your preferences (language, theme, country) and to remember your cookie choice. We set no persistent analytics cookie.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

In our cookie banner you can accept or decline non-essential cookies the first time you visit the platform. The banner has no per-category toggles, and the choice is stored in the snx-consent cookie. To change it, delete snx-consent in your browser settings; you will then be asked again. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from websites. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our platform. You can also opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

6. Consent

In accordance with EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR requirements, we request your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. Essential cookies do not require consent as they are strictly necessary for the service to function. You can withdraw your consent by deleting the snx-consent cookie in your browser settings. Your consent preferences are stored in a cookie that expires after 12 months, after which you will be asked again.

7. Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable cookies, some features of our platform may not work as intended. Specifically: without essential cookies, you cannot log in or use the website editor; without preference cookies, your language and theme settings will reset on each visit. We recommend keeping essential and preference cookies enabled for the best experience.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. We will notify you of significant changes by posting a notice on our website. The date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised.
