Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 23, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Nizami Herbal ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on nizamiherbal.com (the "Site"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet, or phone when you visit a website. They help the Site remember your actions and preferences over time. Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party services we use (third-party cookies).
2. Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage for certain features. Like cookies, local storage saves data on your device but is not automatically sent to our servers with every request. We use it for:
- Shopping cart (
nizami-cart) — items you add before checkout - Wishlist (
nizami-wishlist) — products you save for later - Theme preference (
theme) — light or dark mode selection - Cookie consent (
cookie-consent) — whether you accepted or declined non-essential cookies
3. How We Use Cookies & Storage
3.1 Strictly necessary
These are required for the Site to function. Without them, you cannot complete checkout, stay logged in, or maintain a cart.
| Name / Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session / auth cookies | Keep you signed in to your account (NextAuth) | Session or until logout |
nizami-cart (local storage) | Store cart items between visits | Until cleared |
| Security cookies | Protect against cross-site request forgery and abuse | Session |
3.2 Functional / preferences
These remember choices you make to improve your experience.
| Name / Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
theme (local storage) | Remember light or dark mode | Until cleared |
nizami-wishlist (local storage) | Save wishlist products on your device | Until cleared |
cookie-consent (local storage) | Record your cookie banner choice | Until cleared |
3.3 Analytics (optional)
We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the Site (pages viewed, traffic sources, device type). This helps us improve performance and product offerings. Analytics cookies are only activated if you accept cookies via our consent banner, where applicable.
4. Third-Party Cookies & Services
Some features rely on third parties that may set their own cookies:
- Google — address autocomplete during checkout (Google Maps Places) and optional Google sign-in
- Facebook / Meta — optional Facebook sign-in and WhatsApp-related services
- Firebase — phone number verification during registration
- Payment providers — PayFast may set cookies when you complete an online payment on their platform
We do not control third-party cookies. Please review the privacy and cookie policies of those providers for more information.
5. Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit the Site, a banner asks whether you accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in cookie-consent local storage so the banner does not reappear on every visit.
- Accept: essential cookies plus optional analytics where configured
- Decline: only strictly necessary cookies and local storage required for core functionality (cart, checkout, login)
6. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Browser settings:Most browsers let you block, delete, or limit cookies. See your browser's help section (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
- Clear site data: Clearing cookies and local storage for nizamiherbal.com will reset your cart, wishlist, theme, and login session.
- Opt out of third-party ads/analytics: Use provider-specific opt-out tools where available (e.g., Google Ads Settings).
Blocking all cookies may prevent you from using certain features, including checkout and account login.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is no universal industry standard for responding to DNT. We currently do not alter our practices based solely on DNT signals, but you can manage cookies as described above.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the latest version. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
