1. About this notice
This Cookie and Local Storage Notice explains how the StarPago website stores information on your device and which third-party resources it loads. StarPago is a payment acceptance brand of AIDeeGroup, and this website is operated by Star Pay Tecnología, S.A. de C.V., registered at Calle Lago Alberto 320, Int. 06B 601, Col. Granada, Alcaldía Miguel Hidalgo, C.P. 11520, Ciudad de México, México ("StarPago", "we", "us").
This notice covers our public website only. Our merchant dashboard and API are separate services. If they use cookies or similar technologies, we will describe them in the dashboard or in documentation provided to merchants. How we handle personal data more generally is described in our Privacy Notice.
2. What cookies and local storage are
Cookies are small text files that a website places in your browser. They are sent back to the website, or to third parties, each time your browser makes a request, and are often used to remember settings, keep users signed in, measure traffic or show advertising.
Local storage is a feature of modern browsers that lets a website save small pieces of information on your device. Unlike cookies, information in local storage is not automatically sent to any server with each request. It stays in your browser until it is deleted by the website, by you, or by your browser settings.
Some data protection and electronic communications laws treat local storage and similar technologies in the same way as cookies. We therefore describe all of them in this notice.
3. Summary
- Our website does not currently use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, social media pixels or other tracking technologies.
- We store one item in your browser's local storage: your language preference.
- Our pages load fonts from Google Fonts and request reference exchange rates from open.er-api.com. These requests are made by your browser directly to those providers.
- Because we only use what is strictly necessary to provide the website you request, we do not display a cookie consent banner. If we add any non-essential technology in the future, we will update this notice and ask for your consent where the law requires.
4. What we store on your device
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| sp-lang | Local storage, first party | Remembers the language you selected, so the website is shown in that language on your next visit | Until you clear it or your browser deletes it | Strictly necessary / functional |
This item contains only a language code, such as "en" or "es". It does not contain your name, email or any identifier, and we do not send it to our servers or to anyone else. If it is deleted, the website will simply show the default language, or the language suggested by your browser, until you choose again.
5. Third-party resources loaded by our website
To display our pages, your browser connects to the third-party services listed below. When it does, the provider receives technical information that browsers send with every web request, such as your IP address, the browser and device type, the time of the request and the page that made the request (the "referrer"). We do not control how these providers handle that information, and we encourage you to read their privacy notices.
| Provider | What it does on our website | Information the provider receives | More information |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts (Google LLC) | Supplies the typefaces used to display our text | IP address, browser and device information, referrer | Google Fonts privacy FAQ |
| open.er-api.com (ExchangeRate-API) | Supplies reference exchange rates shown on our pages for information only | IP address, browser and device information, referrer | ExchangeRate-API terms and privacy |
To our knowledge, these requests do not set cookies on your device for our website. However, providers may change their practices. Exchange rates shown on our website are indicative, may be delayed, and are not the rates used for settlement. See our Terms for details.
Our pages may contain links to other websites, such as partner or social media sites. If you follow those links, the other site's cookie and privacy practices apply.
6. Information you submit
When you use our contact form, the information you enter is sent to us so that we can respond to your enquiry. It is not stored in a cookie or in local storage by our website. How we use that information is explained in our Privacy Notice.
7. How to control and clear stored information
You can view, block and delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Clearing "site data" or "cookies and other site data" for our website will remove the language preference described above. The exact steps depend on your browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies or Site settings, then View permissions and data stored across sites. Search for our website and delete its data.
- Safari (macOS): Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data. Select our website and choose Remove.
- Safari (iPhone and iPad): Settings, then Apps, then Safari, then Advanced, then Website Data. Find our website and delete it.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data, then Manage Data. Select our website and remove it.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies and site data, then See all cookies and site data. Find our website and delete it.
Browser menus change over time, so these steps may differ slightly in your version. You can also use your browser's private or incognito mode, in which case stored data is normally deleted when you close the window.
If you want to prevent your browser from contacting third-party providers, you can use browser extensions or settings that block third-party requests. If you block Google Fonts, our pages will display in a fallback font. If you block the exchange rate service, reference rates will not appear. The rest of the website will continue to work.
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control setting. Because we do not use tracking technologies on our website, there is currently nothing for these signals to switch off.
8. Legal basis and your rights
We store your language preference because it is strictly necessary to provide the website in the language you asked for. Loading fonts and reference rates is necessary to display the content you request. Where the law of your country requires a legal basis for this processing, we rely on our legitimate interest in operating a functional, readable website, or on the equivalent basis recognised by that law.
You have rights over your personal data, which may include access, correction, deletion and objection, depending on where you live. Our Privacy Notice explains these rights for each of our markets and how to exercise them.
9. Changes to this notice
We will update this notice if we change the technologies we use, for example if we introduce analytics or a new third-party service. We will post the updated version on this page with a new "last updated" date. If we introduce any technology that requires your consent, we will ask for it before using that technology.
