1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information across page loads and sessions. Steller uses a minimal set of cookies required to operate the service.

2. Cookies we use

Steller uses only functional, strictly necessary cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking cookies, or analytics cookies that identify individual users.

Note: steller_token and steller_user are stored in localStorage, not browser cookies. They serve the same functional purpose (maintaining your session) but are accessible only to the getsteller.ca origin.

3. Stripe cookies

Steller uses Stripe as its payment processor. When you access the billing or checkout section of the app, Stripe may set cookies on your device for fraud detection and secure payment processing. These cookies are necessary to process payments safely. Stripe's cookie policy is available at stripe.com/cookies-policy.

4. Cookies we do not use

Steller does not set or allow:

  • Advertising or retargeting cookies
  • Third-party analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics, Mixpanel)
  • Social media tracking pixels
  • Cross-site tracking identifiers

5. Your choices

Because we only use strictly necessary cookies, the platform cannot function without them. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, but doing so will prevent you from signing in to Steller.

Most modern browsers allow you to manage cookies in their privacy or security settings. Instructions for common browsers:

6. Data hosting

Cookie data and session data processed by Wolf Codes Inc. systems is stored in Canada. Stripe's cookie data is processed by Stripe in accordance with their own privacy and residency practices.

7. Changes to this policy

We will update this Cookie Policy if our cookie use changes. Material changes will be communicated through the same channels as our Privacy Policy updates.
