Cookie Policy
Last updated: 17 October 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, let a site remember information on your device. This policy explains what KasiRoots stores and why. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
2. Essential Cookies
We only use cookies that are needed for the platform to work. They are set when you sign in and cannot be switched off without breaking sign-in. On secure connections their names start with __Secure- or __Host-.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| next-auth.session-token | Keeps you signed in to your account. | Up to 30 days, or until you sign out |
| next-auth.csrf-token | Protects sign-in and account forms against cross-site request forgery. | Session |
| next-auth.callback-url | Returns you to the page you were on after signing in. | Session |
3. Local Storage
Your shopping cart is saved in your browser's local storage under the key kasiroots_cart, so items stay in your cart if you close the page. It never leaves your device until you check out, and you can clear it at any time by emptying your cart or clearing your browser data.
4. Analytics and Advertising
KasiRoots does not use analytics, tracking or advertising cookies, and we do not allow advertisers to place cookies through our site. If this changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent where the law requires it.
5. Third-Party Services
Some actions take you to a trusted partner, which may set its own cookies under its own policy:
- PayFast and Paystack, when you pay for an order.
- Google, if you choose to sign in with your Google account.
- Courier websites, when you follow a tracking link.
6. Managing Cookies
You can view and delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block essential cookies, you won't be able to sign in, check out or manage a store.
