Cookie Policy
Last updated: May 17, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Olympica Stores uses cookies and similar browser storage technologies when you visit our website. We aim to use only what is strictly necessary to operate the site.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners.
Cookies We Use
We Keep It Minimal
We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking pixels, or sell data to ad networks. Our cookie usage is limited to what is strictly required to run the store.
Authentication Session Cookie▾
Set when you log in to your account. This cookie keeps you signed in as you navigate the site. It expires when you log out or after 30 days of inactivity. This is an essential cookie — without it, you cannot stay logged in. Cookie name: next-auth.session-token Duration: Up to 30 days Can be disabled: No (prevents login from working)
Browser Local Storage — Cart Data▾
Your shopping cart is stored in your browser's localStorage (not a cookie). This means your cart persists across browser sessions without needing a server call. This data stays on your device and is cleared when you clear your browser storage. Storage key: cart-storage Can be cleared: Yes, via browser developer tools or clearing site data
Stripe Payment Cookies▾
When you proceed to pay with a card, Stripe sets cookies to prevent fraud and ensure the payment form works correctly. These are governed by Stripe's Cookie Policy (stripe.com/cookie-settings). They are only active during the payment process. Can be disabled: No (payment will not function without them)
PayPal Cookies▾
If you choose to pay with PayPal, PayPal may set cookies within their payment button/popup. These are governed by PayPal's Cookie Policy. They are only active when you interact with the PayPal payment flow. Can be disabled: No (PayPal payment will not function without them)
What We Do NOT Use
We do not use: • Google Analytics or similar analytics tracking • Facebook Pixel or other advertising/retargeting trackers • Cross-site tracking cookies • Third-party advertising cookies of any kind
Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Here is how to manage cookies in common browsers: • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data • Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data • Edge: Settings → Privacy, search and services → Cookies Note: Blocking the authentication session cookie will prevent you from logging in. Blocking Stripe or PayPal cookies will prevent those payment methods from working. You may still browse the site and use localStorage-based cart functionality without any cookies enabled.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes or new legal requirements come into effect. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision.
