Cookie Policy
What we store on your device, why, and how to control it.

Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always active)
Session cookies for essential site function — city selection, theme preference (light/dark), consent state, subscribe-widget dismissal. No consent required under DPDP §7 / GDPR Recital 32.
Analytics (opt-in only)
Google Analytics 4 (property G-8TF95LBYRV) — anonymized page views, device type, referrer, city-level location. Blocked by default; only fires after you click "Accept all" in the consent banner. Retention: 14 months in GA, then auto-deleted.
Advertising (opt-in only, when enabled)
If Google AdSense is enabled in the future, ad-storage, ad-personalization and ad-user-data cookies will only be set with explicit consent. As of 2026-07-20 the site does not run AdSense.
How to change your choice
- Reopen the banner: clear
np-consent-v1from localStorage (browser dev tools) and reload. - Block all analytics: install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
- Delete existing cookies: browser Settings → Privacy → Clear browsing data → "Cookies and other site data" for
nityapanchangam.com.
Do Not Track
We honor the browser DNT signal — if your browser sends DNT: 1, analytics stays denied even if you accepted the banner.
Third-party embeds
WhatsApp Channel links and embedded YouTube/social widgets (if any) may set their own cookies when clicked. We link, we don't embed those services on load.
