QuixiCloud Cookie Policy

Last Updated: July 10, 2026
Effective Date: May 1, 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how QuixiCloud Data Storage Private Limited ("QuixiCloud," "we," "our," or "us") utilizes cookies and similar local storage technologies across our website, web application, and related online services.

This policy operates in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions to provide complete transparency regarding how we handle your data.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device by your web browser when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember specific information about your visit, such as your login session, language preference, and user settings.

Important: Our cookies are utilized strictly for platform functionality and security. They do not contain or access the contents of the files you upload to QuixiCloud.

3. Why We Use Cookies

QuixiCloud relies on cookies to operate our core services. We use them specifically to:

  • Keep you securely signed in during an active session.
  • Protect your account from unauthorized access.
  • Improve overall website performance and load times.
  • Remember your user interface preferences.
  • Detect and prevent fraudulent or abusive activity.
  • Securely handle multi-factor authentication workflows.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize our cookies based on their primary function:

Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary): These cookies are required for the website and web application to function securely. Without them, you cannot log in or manage your files.

  • Examples: Authentication tokens, login session trackers, CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection, and security verification challenges.
  • Opt-Out: Because these are strictly necessary to provide the service you requested, they cannot be disabled.

Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your choices to provide a smoother, more personalized experience.

  • Examples: Selected language, dark/light theme preference, dashboard layouts, and upload configurations.

Performance Cookies: These help us understand how our infrastructure is performing in the real world.

  • Examples: Error rate tracking, page load speeds, and service availability pinging.
  • Privacy note: This information is heavily aggregated and does not identify individual users.

Analytics Cookies: QuixiCloud currently minimizes the use of third-party analytics. Where utilized, analytics cookies only collect high-level, anonymized usage statistics to help us improve the platform.

Advertising Cookies: QuixiCloud does not use advertising cookies. We do not display third-party advertisements on our platform, and we do not track your behavior across other websites to build advertising profiles.

5. Third-Party Cookies

In limited circumstances, trusted third-party services may set cookies when you interact with specific features on our platform:

  • Payment Providers: When you upgrade to a paid subscription, our secure payment gateway may set essential cookies to process the transaction securely.
  • Identity Providers: If you choose to log in using a third-party Single Sign-On (SSO) provider (where supported), that provider may set authentication cookies.

6. Cookie Lifetimes

The duration a cookie remains on your device depends on its purpose:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary and are automatically deleted the moment you close your web browser.
  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a limited, predefined period (e.g., to remember your language preference for your next visit) or until you manually delete them.

7. Managing Your Cookies

You have full control over the cookies stored on your device. Through your web browser settings, you may choose to:

  • Delete existing cookies.
  • Block all future cookies.
  • Configure preferences for specific websites.

Warning: If you choose to block Essential Cookies from QuixiCloud, you will not be able to log in to your account, upload files, or access your encrypted storage.

8. Similar Technologies

In addition to traditional cookies, QuixiCloud’s modern web application heavily utilizes HTML5 Local Storage and Session Storage. These technologies function similarly to cookies but allow us to securely cache more complex data directly in your browser, improving application speed and security.

9. Security

Cookies play a critical role in our security architecture. We employ them to detect suspicious activity, prevent session hijacking, and maintain secure authentication states.

All sensitive authentication information stored in cookies is mathematically secured and utilizes flags (such as HttpOnly and Secure) to ensure it is never unintentionally exposed to malicious client-side scripts.

10. Updates to this Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or data protection laws. The latest version will always be available in the QuixiCloud Legal Center.
