What Cookies Are Used
Cookies and similar browser storage allow a site to remember a secure session or complete a requested action. Nova uses a first-party, HTTP-only session cookie with secure and SameSite protections in production so signed-in customers can use the dashboard.
Nova may also use short-lived security values needed for OAuth state, request integrity, CSRF protection, and abuse prevention. These technologies are strictly necessary for the service you request and are not used to build an advertising profile.
A referral visit stores a signed, HTTP-only attribution cookie for seven days. Choosing a plan before Discord sign-in stores a single-use, HTTP-only checkout-intent cookie for up to ten minutes. Nova may also use a signed session snapshot for up to 60 seconds to make public sign-in status load faster; protected account and financial APIs still revalidate authoritative account state.
Third-Party Checkout
SellAuth checkout is loaded only after you choose to buy a plan and sign in. SellAuth and its payment providers may use their own necessary cookies or similar technologies to protect and complete that checkout. Their privacy and cookie terms apply to information they process.
Discord may use its own cookies when you leave externals.gg to complete Discord OAuth. Nova does not control cookies already set by Discord in your browser.
What Nova Does Not Currently Use
The current externals.gg site does not use Google Analytics, advertising pixels, cross-site behavioral advertising cookies, or social-media tracking pixels. Nova does not sell cookie-derived personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
If Nova adds non-essential analytics or advertising technology, this policy will be updated and an appropriate consent control will be provided before those cookies are set where required by law.
Your Controls
You can delete or block cookies through your browser. Blocking Nova's strictly necessary session or security cookies will prevent Discord sign-in, the dashboard, redemption, device management, or protected downloads from working correctly.
Questions about cookies can be submitted through the official Nova Discord at https://discord.gg/xternal.
