What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit them. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as login state and security tokens.
This Cookie Policy explains how ZS Sections uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (zssections.com) and within our Shopify app.
Cookies We Use
We use only essential cookies. These are necessary for the website and the app to function — without them, you wouldn't be able to log in or use the app securely.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
zs_session |
Keeps you logged in to the app | Session |
zs_csrf |
Security token to prevent CSRF attacks | Session |
shopify_* |
Shopify authentication & app context | Session |
What We Don't Use
To be explicit about what stays out of our cookie practices:
- No advertising cookies: We never use cookies to show ads or build advertising profiles.
- No cross-site tracking: We don't track you across other websites.
- No analytics that follow you: We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any third-party tracker.
- No fingerprinting: We don't use browser fingerprinting techniques.
- No payment cookies: All payments are handled by Shopify Billing — we never store payment data.
Third-Party Cookies
The only third-party cookies that may appear are set by Shopify itself when you access our app through the Shopify admin. These are required for Shopify's own authentication and security.
- Shopify: Authentication when accessed through Shopify admin. See the Shopify Privacy Policy.
How to Control Cookies
Most browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies. Here's how to access cookie settings in popular browsers:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Since we only use essential cookies, disabling them may prevent the app and website from working correctly — you may not be able to log in or stay authenticated.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our practices evolve. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. If we ever begin using non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and add a cookie consent mechanism before doing so.
