Cookie Policy

Short version: this site uses cookies for two things — making it work, and counting visits. Nothing is used to build an advertising profile of you, and nothing beyond the essentials runs until you choose.

Essential

A small number of cookies are required for the site to function at all: keeping you logged in if you have an account, remembering your choice on the cookie banner, and protecting forms against automated abuse. These cannot be switched off without breaking the site.

Analytics

If you accept, we count page views, referrers and broad location at country level so we know which writing is worth continuing. If you decline, no analytics cookie is set and the site behaves exactly the same.

What we do not do

• No advertising or retargeting cookies.
• No selling or sharing of browsing data.
• No third-party trackers embedded in the page for their own purposes.

Changing your mind

Clearing this site’s data in your browser resets the banner and your choice with it. You can also block or delete cookies entirely from your browser’s settings — the site will still work.

Payments

When you pay for a consultation, the payment gateway sets its own cookies during checkout for fraud prevention and to complete the transaction. Those are governed by the gateway’s own policy. Buying the book happens on Amazon.in or Flipkart, under their cookie policies.
