Last updated: 8 April 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how KR.ML LTD trading as NextBookin ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies such as localStorage when you visit or use our platform at nextbookin.com and related domains. We use these technologies to keep our platform functioning, remember your preferences, and provide a secure experience.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, improve efficiency, and provide information to site owners. We also use localStorage, a similar browser technology that allows us to store small amounts of data locally on your device. Unlike cookies, localStorage data is not sent to the server with every request.

3. Cookies We Use

Below is a detailed list of the cookies and local storage items used on our platform:

4. Third-Party Cookies

Certain third-party services integrated into our platform may set their own cookies:

  • Stripe: may set cookies during payment processing for fraud prevention and security purposes. See Stripe's privacy policy for details.
  • Google: may set cookies if you choose to sign in using Google Sign-In. See Google's privacy policy for details.

If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics (GA4) collects anonymous usage data such as pages visited and session duration. No personal data is shared with advertising networks. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer, which will re-display the consent banner so you can update your choices.

5. How to Control Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies and localStorage data through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, and to clear localStorage. Below are links to cookie management instructions for popular browsers:

Please note that disabling essential cookies (such as the authentication session token) will prevent you from signing in and using the platform. Clearing localStorage items will reset your theme and sidebar preferences.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to check this page periodically for the latest information. The "Last updated" date at the top indicates the most recent revision.
