1. What Are Cookies & Local Storage?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit websites. They are widely used by web developers to make websites function securely, recall visitor preferences, and produce aggregate diagnostic metrics.

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and global privacy benchmarks, digital identifiers that can reasonably link to an identifiable user require transparent itemised notice and purpose-specific consent.

You can review your active choices, opt into analytics, or revoke permission with one click.
