Cookies & Storage Policy
Last updated: 1 October 2026
1. Sankshep mein
ApnaChowk sirf woh cookies aur storage use karta hai jinke bina site kaam nahi karti — aapko sign in rakhne, aapke account ko safe rakhne aur aapki pasand yaad rakhne ke liye — jab tak aap aur kisi cheez ki permission na dein. Analytics aur marketing cookies tab tak off rehti hain jab tak aap unhe on na karein, aur aap har page ke neeche “Cookie settings” se kabhi bhi apni pasand badal sakte hain.
2. Hum aapke device par kya store karte hain
Neeche ki har cheez zaroori hai: iske bina site kaam nahi kar sakti, ya aapko safe nahi rakh sakti. Kisi ka bhi use analytics, advertising ya tracking ke liye nahi hota. Aapki permission ke bina koi bhi optional cheez store nahi hoti, aur permission dene par woh is list mein jod di jaati hai.

3. Third-party cookies
Koi third party cookie sirf tab set kar sakti hai jab aap type karke location search karne wala box use karte hain, jo ek third-party maps service use karta hai — woh service apni cookies set kar sakti hai. Agar aap iski jagah apne device ka GPS ya pehle se tay location use karte hain, toh aisa nahi hota. Aaj koi bhi analytics ya advertising service on nahi hai. Agar baad mein koi on ki jaati hai, toh woh sirf tabhi load hogi jab aap uski category ki permission dein, aur use pehle yahan list mein joda jayega.
4. Aapki pasand
Jab aap pehli baar aate hain, hum poochte hain ki kya hum analytics aur marketing cookies use kar sakte hain. “Sab reject karein” utna hi aasaan hai jitna “Sab accept karein”, aur kuch bhi pehle se tick nahi hota. Hum har pasand ka record rakhte hain — pasand, policy ka version, samay aur bhasha — consent cookie ke ek random number ke saath aur, agar aap sign in hain, toh aapke account ke saath. Agar yeh policy badalti hai ya 12 mahine baad, hum phir se poochte hain. Aap kabhi bhi apni pasand badal ya wapas le sakte hain; wapas lete hi optional cookies turant band ho jaati hain.
5. Storage manage karna
Aap apne browser ki settings se kabhi bhi cookies aur local storage saaf kar sakte hain. Dhyaan dein ki inhe saaf karne se aap sign out ho jayenge aur aapki save ki hui pasand, cookies wali pasand samet, hat jayegi. ApnaChowk se sign out karne par bhi aapke login tokens aur functional cookies saaf ho jaati hain.
