What happens if the session expires during checkout?

If the session expires mid-checkout, the cart is preserved so the customer can resume without losing their data. Rather than dumping the basket and forcing a restart, the system holds the cart so a re-authenticated or returning shopper picks up where they were. This reduces a frustrating failure mode — losing a full basket to a timeout — and keeps the path to purchase intact.
