1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device by a website's server when you visit a website. Each cookie is unique to your web browser and will contain some information such as a unique identifier, the website's domain name, and other data used to recognise your browser on future visits.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or malware. They cannot access any other information on your device beyond what the website places there.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons (small transparent images used to track user behaviour) and local storage. References to "cookies" in this policy include such similar technologies where the context allows.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies on the Nex Artist web application for the following purposes:
- Security: To protect you and the Site from cross-site request forgery attacks and other security threats;
- Authentication: To recognise that you have created an account and are logged in, and to keep you signed in during your session;
- Functionality: To remember your preferences and settings so you have a consistent experience across visits;
- Analytics: To understand how visitors use our Site, which pages are visited most frequently, and to help us improve the experience; and
- Payment processing: To support the secure processing of subscription payments via Stripe.
We process cookies in accordance with the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 ("PECR") and UK GDPR. Strictly necessary cookies are placed without consent as they are essential for the Site to function. Non-essential cookies (functional and analytics) are only placed where you have given your consent, or where we have a legitimate interest that is not overridden by your interests or rights.
3. Types of Cookies We Use

Functionality cookies Functional
Functionality cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make - such as your username and any customisations - so that it can provide a more personalised experience. Removing these cookies will not prevent access to the Site but may affect how it behaves.
Analytical cookies Analytics
Analytical cookies help us and our third-party analytics providers understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting and reporting information in an aggregated, anonymous form. These cookies do not contain personally identifiable information such as names or email addresses. They help us improve the Site and its usability over time.
