What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use exactly one, to keep you signed in.

Cookies we use

Essential cookie

Required

One cookie, rishta_session, keeps you signed in. It holds a random token and nothing about you, and it is removed when you sign out. Without it you cannot sign in.

Examples: rishta_session

Preferences, not cookies

Optional

Your day or night choice and a few screen preferences are kept in your own browser’s storage. They are never sent to us, and clearing your browser removes them.

Examples: Theme, last search filters

What we don't do

  • We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to ad networks.
  • We do not use cross-site tracking cookies.
  • We do not embed third-party social media scripts that track you.
  • We do not use Google Analytics or Meta Pixel.

Managing cookies

There is nothing optional to switch off: we set no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Blocking the one essential cookie signs you out. To clear all Rishta cookies, log out and clear your browser's cookies for our domain.
