Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how AutoRender AI (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies, HTML5 local storage, and Chrome extension storage technologies when you visit our website and use our Chrome companion extension.
🍪No Invasive Ad Trackers Pledge
We respect your digital privacy. AutoRender AI does NOT use third-party advertising cookies, behavioral tracking beacons, or cross-site fingerprinting scripts.
We use storage technologies solely for strictly necessary operations (authentication, license validation), user preference memory (currency selection, dark theme), and secure payment processing.
01.What Are Cookies & Local Storage?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your computer or mobile device by a web server when you visit an online portal. It allows the website to recognize your browser, maintain your login session across page transitions, and remember your interactions.
In addition to HTTP cookies, modern web applications and Chrome extensions utilize HTML5 Local Storage and Chrome Storage API (chrome.storage.local). These storage mechanisms allow fast, secure, client-side data persistence with zero network latency, ensuring your prompt queues and workflow configurations remain intact between browser sessions.
02.Categories of Storage We Employ
We classify our client-side storage usage into three specific operational categories:
●1. Strictly Necessary / Authentication Storage
MandatoryThese items are essential for the operation of AutoRender AI. Without them, you cannot log into your account, access the PRO licensing features, or bridge authentication between the web portal and the Chrome Extension.
| Identifier | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| autorender_auth_token | Local / Storage | Maintains active login session & API authorization | Persistent until sign-out |
| next-auth.session-token | HTTP Cookie | OAuth session security for Google/GitHub sign-in | 30 days |
| deviceLockId | chrome.storage | Cryptographic device fingerprint for single-device licensing | Persistent |
●2. Preference & User Experience Storage
FunctionalThese storage items remember your personalized settings across browser visits so you do not have to reconfigure them each time:
| Identifier | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| autorender_currency | localStorage | Remembers selected pricing currency (USD / ETB) | Persistent |
| autorender_cookie_consent | localStorage | Records your cookie banner preference (accepted / essential) | 1 year |
| autorender_theme | localStorage | Retains dark or light visual theme | Persistent |
| autorender_flow_settings | chrome.storage | Saves prompt delays, model selection, and folder naming | Persistent |
●3. Payment Security & Checkout Integrity
SecurityWhen you initiate a checkout via Chapa Financial Technologies or PayPal, their embedded secure gateways issue transient session tokens to safeguard payment authorization against cross-site scripting (XSS) and fraud.
