NESKTOP BROWSER EXTENSION — Cookies Notice (Extension-Specific)

This section is extension-specific. The Extension does not set cookies like websites do.

Effective date: 2026-07-14

1) Does the Extension set cookies?

The Extension itself does not set HTTP cookies in your browser in the way websites do. It uses browser extension storage (chrome.storage or equivalent), which is separate from website cookie storage.

2) Why cookies may still be involved

Nesktop is a web app. When you sign in on https://nesktop.com, the website may use essential cookies (or similar session mechanisms, such as session tokens in local/session storage) to keep you logged in. To support automatic sign-in state sharing, the Extension may make requests to Nesktop endpoints (for example, GET /api/auth/me) that rely on your existing authenticated session with the Nesktop webapp. The Extension itself does not create or manage those cookies.

3) Types of storage used by the Extension

The Extension uses browser extension storage for:

• Your toggle settings and preferences
• Cached UI and layout data
• Paired access token (obtained after you explicitly pair the Extension with your account)

This storage is managed through your browser's extension management page and is not cleared when you clear website cookies or site data.

4) How to control

• Extension toggles: you can turn individual features on or off from the Extension's popup or settings page.
• Uninstall the Extension: removes all local extension storage.
• Cookie settings on the website: manage website-level cookie preferences through the webapp's Cookie settings.
• Browser settings: manage website cookies and site data through your browser's privacy settings. Logging out of Nesktop or clearing site data will remove session cookies according to your browser's controls.
