Cookie policy

A cookie is a small file a website saves in your browser so it can recognise you on the next page or visit. Browsers also offer similar storage, such as local storage, which this policy covers too. Some are needed for a site to work; others are optional.

These are always on, because without them you could not sign in or use your store safely:

• Sign-in session — keeps you signed in to the dashboard. It is HTTP-only and, in production, secure, so page scripts cannot read it.
• Security token — stops another website from making requests to StoreSello in your name (CSRF protection).
• Shopper sign-in — on a store we host, keeps a shopper signed in to their account with that store.

• Language — remembers whether you chose English or Bangla on our website.
• Affiliate referral— if you arrive through an affiliate’s link, remembers their code so they are credited when you sign up. It is encrypted and removed when you sign out.
• Unsaved work — drafts in the editor are kept encrypted in your browser until you save them, so a closed tab does not lose your changes.
• Shopping basket— on a store we host, an encrypted identifier lets the store find a shopper’s basket again on their next visit.

On our public website we may use analytics and advertising tools — Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, the Meta pixel and the TikTok pixel — to understand how visitors find and use the site and to measure our own advertising. These tools set their own cookies and process data under their providers’ privacy policies.

They are not used inside the merchant dashboard or the point of sale, and you can block them in your browser without affecting the Service.

A merchant can add their own analytics and advertising tags — such as a Meta pixel, Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager — to their store. Those tags are chosen and controlled by the merchant, use the merchant’s own accounts, and are covered by the merchant’s privacy policy. Shoppers should ask the store about them.

Every browser lets you see, block and delete cookies and site storage in its settings. If you block the cookies in section 2, you will not be able to sign in. Blocking the rest only means the site will not remember your choices.

We update this policy when the cookies we use change; the date at the top shows the current version. Questions: privacy@storesello.com. How we handle personal information more generally is in our Privacy policy.
