Cookie Policy

Effective October 19, 2026 · Last updated October 19, 2026

ChargingNear.me is operated by Wins Parking, LLC.

ChargingNear.me uses only first-party cookies and browser storage that make the site work, keep it secure and help us count use. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels or third-party analytics. This policy is part of our Privacy Policy.

1. What Cookies and Browser Storage Are

A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to keep and send back on later visits. Browser storage (local storage, session storage and the offline cache) works the same way but stays in your browser and is not sent to us automatically. Session storage is cleared when you close the tab; the others last until they expire or you clear them.

2. Cookies We Set

Cookies
Cookie	Purpose	Strictly necessary / Functional	Lasts
`cnm_visitor`	A random ID for your browser, used to count free allowances (such as free trip plans) fairly and to stop abuse, and to group searches and analytics events. It is not linked to your account.	Functional	1 year
`cnm_driver`	Keeps you signed in to your account.	Strictly necessary	30 days, or until you sign out
`cnm_owner`	Keeps a station owner signed in to the owner dashboard.	Strictly necessary	30 days, or until you sign out
`cnm_listing_setup`	Keeps a business signed in to its listing setup page after it opens an emailed sign-in link.	Strictly necessary	7 days
`cnm_ml_confirm`	Confirms that a sign-in link is opened in the browser that asked for it.	Strictly necessary	10 minutes
`cnm_admin`	Signs in our own staff to the admin tools. Never set for visitors.	Strictly necessary	12 hours
`GAESA`	Set by our hosting provider’s network (Google Cloud, through Replit) to route your requests.	Strictly necessary	30 days

All of these are strictly necessary or functional: the site, sign-in or fair-use limits do not work properly without them. None are used for advertising.

3. Browser Storage We Use

Item	Purpose	Where and how long
Saved stations, recently viewed stations, your vehicle and “my EV” mode	Remember your choices on this device, even when signed out	Local storage, until you clear it

4. Third Parties

We do not let advertisers or analytics companies set cookies on our pages. When a map loads, your browser fetches map images directly from our map tile providers, which receive your IP address and the map area, under their own privacy policies. When you pay, you do so on Stripe’s checkout page, which uses its own cookies for payments and fraud prevention under Stripe’s policies.

If we ever turn on analytics, it will be cookieless, and our pages will not load it in a browser that sends Global Privacy Control or has opted out on our Your Privacy Choices page.

5. Your Choices

You can block or delete cookies and browser storage in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, signing in and some features will not work. We honor Global Privacy Control as described in our Privacy Policy, and you can record an opt-out for this browser on our Your Privacy Choices page.
