Cookie Policy
Last updated 14 October 2026
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Storefront GH uses only the few cookies and similar storage it needs to work. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not track you across other websites.

2. Why we don't ask for consent
Everything above is strictly necessary for a feature you asked for, such as staying signed in or keeping your cart. None of it is used for advertising or profiling, so it is set without a consent banner.
3. Visit counts
Businesses can see how many times their website pages were viewed. These counts are recorded on our server without cookies and without storing who visited.
4. Payment pages
When you pay, you may be taken to a payment provider's secure page, such as Paystack's checkout. That page can set its own cookies for security and fraud prevention, under the provider's own cookie policy.
5. Controlling cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the login cookie you will not be able to sign in, and clearing browser storage empties your cart and resets your theme. For more on how we handle personal information, see our Privacy Policy.
