1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how HITESHPANDEY.IN (“HITESHPANDEY.IN,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) may use cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use https://staging.hiteshpandey.in/ and associated webpages, portals, subdomains, applications, and digital interfaces operated or controlled by us (collectively, the “Website”).
This Policy explains what cookies are, why they may be used, the types of cookies and similar technologies that may be used on the Website, how third-party services may use such technologies, and the choices available to you.
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions, Refund & Cancellation Policy, Course/Test/Content Access Policy, Copyright & Intellectual Property Policy, and other applicable Website policies.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files or similar pieces of information that may be stored on your device when you visit a website.
Cookies can enable a website to recognize a device, maintain a session, remember certain information, support website functionality, improve security, and understand how visitors use the website.
The term “cookies” in this Policy is used broadly and may include cookies and similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, tags, identifiers, scripts, or equivalent technologies, where applicable.
3. Why We Use Cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies for purposes associated with the operation, security, administration, measurement, and improvement of the Website and Services.
Depending on the features and technologies actually enabled on the Website, these purposes may include:
3.1 Essential Website Functionality
Certain cookies or similar technologies may be necessary for the Website to operate properly.
These may support functions such as:
- user authentication and login;
- session management;
- maintaining the state of a user’s visit;
- account-related functionality;
- security and access controls;
- protection against unauthorized activity;
- remembering necessary technical preferences; and
- other core Website functionality.
Disabling technologies that are necessary for these purposes may affect the operation of the Website or certain features.
3.2 Security and Fraud Prevention
Cookies and similar technologies may be used as part of security measures intended to:
- detect suspicious or unauthorized activity;
- help prevent fraud, abuse, or attacks;
- protect user accounts;
- identify unusual access patterns; and
- maintain the security and integrity of the Website and Services.
3.3 Preferences and User Experience
Where technically applicable, cookies or similar technologies may allow the Website to remember certain necessary preferences or settings so that you do not have to provide or select the same information repeatedly.
3.4 Analytics and Measurement
We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use the Website and how the Website performs.
This may include information such as:
- pages visited;
- interactions with pages or features;
- approximate session information;
- browser and device information;
- approximate geographical information;
- traffic sources or referring pages;
- usage patterns; and
- technical or performance information.
We use such information primarily for statistical, analytical, technical, and Website-improvement purposes.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics through Site Kit by Google, Google’s official WordPress plugin, to understand Website traffic, usage, interactions, and performance.
Google Analytics may use cookies and similar identifiers, including first-party cookies such as the _ga cookie, to distinguish users and sessions and to measure interactions with the Website.
The information available through Google Analytics may include information such as user and session statistics, approximate geographical information, and browser or device information.
We do not intentionally configure Google Analytics to request or send information to Google that directly identifies an individual, such as passwords or payment authentication credentials.
The operation and processing of information by Google are also subject to Google’s own privacy policies and terms. We do not control Google’s independent processing activities.
Where Applicable Law requires consent for analytics or other optional technologies, we may use an appropriate consent-management mechanism and configure relevant services accordingly.
5. Google Site Kit, Search Console and PageSpeed Insights
Site Kit by Google is connected to certain Google services on the Website.
At the time this Policy was last updated, these include:
- Google Analytics;
- Google Search Console; and
- Google PageSpeed Insights.
The connection of a service through Site Kit does not mean that every feature supported by Site Kit is necessarily active or that every service uses cookies on the public Website.
Google Search Console
Google Search Console is primarily used by us as a Website-owner and administrator-facing service to monitor, maintain, troubleshoot, and understand the Website’s presence and performance in Google Search.
Its connection through Site Kit does not, by itself, mean that we receive a visitor’s private Google Account information.
Google PageSpeed Insights
We use PageSpeed Insights through Site Kit for Website performance monitoring and recommendations.
The Site Kit integration operates within the WordPress administrative environment and should not be treated merely because of that connection as a visitor-tracking mechanism on the public Website.
Google may separately use cookies or similar technologies when a person accesses Google’s own PageSpeed Insights service directly. Such processing is governed by Google’s applicable policies and is separate from the Site Kit dashboard integration.
6. Types of Cookies
Depending on the technologies actually in use, cookies on the Website may generally fall into the following categories.
6.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies or equivalent technologies may be required for essential Website functions, including login, authentication, sessions, security, and account functionality.
Because certain Website functions may depend on them, disabling them may prevent or impair access to particular parts of the Website.
6.2 Preference Cookies
These may be used, where applicable, to remember information or settings necessary to provide a more convenient and consistent Website experience.
6.3 Analytics Cookies
These may be used to collect statistical information about Website usage, traffic, interactions, and performance.
Analytics information generally helps us understand which pages or features are being used and identify opportunities to improve the Website.
6.4 Security and Technical Cookies
These may support security, authentication, technical operation, abuse prevention, fraud detection, and related Website administration.
The exact classification and operation of a particular technology may depend on the service or technical implementation in use.
7. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
Cookies may be placed by the Website itself (“first-party cookies”) or by third-party services integrated with the Website (“third-party cookies”).
Third-party services may include, depending on the services actually enabled:
- analytics providers;
- security providers;
- payment providers;
- communication providers;
- embedded content providers;
- educational technology providers;
- content or media providers; and
- other technical service providers.
Third parties may process information under their own privacy policies and terms.
We do not control the independent privacy practices, security practices, or cookie technologies of third parties that we do not operate.
You should review the relevant third party’s privacy policy where appropriate.
8. Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies or similar technologies may be associated with information that can, depending on the circumstances, constitute personal data or personal information under Applicable Law.
Our handling of information obtained through cookies and similar technologies is governed, where applicable, by our Privacy Policy and relevant data-protection requirements.
Our Privacy Policy explains how we may collect, use, disclose, retain, protect, and otherwise process Personal Data.
9. Consent and Legal Requirements
Where Applicable Law requires consent before certain cookies or similar technologies are used, we intend to obtain such consent through an appropriate mechanism.
The legal requirements applicable to cookies and similar technologies may depend on the nature of the technology, the purpose for which it is used, the type of information processed, and the law applicable to the relevant processing.
Essential technologies may be used where permitted or required for the operation, security, authentication, or provision of requested Website functionality.
Where consent is required for optional analytics or similar technologies, we may provide an appropriate consent-management mechanism.
10. Managing Cookies
You may have several ways to control cookies and similar technologies.
Depending on your browser, device, and the technology concerned, you may be able to:
- block cookies;
- delete cookies that have already been stored;
- clear your browser’s stored website data;
- restrict certain website technologies through browser or device settings; or
- use an applicable cookie or consent-management mechanism provided on the Website.
Please note that disabling certain cookies or equivalent technologies may affect Website functionality.
In particular, disabling technologies required for authentication, security, sessions, or account functions may interfere with login or other essential Website features.
11. Browser Controls
Most modern web browsers provide controls for managing cookies.
The methods available may differ between browsers and may change when browser software is updated.
Changing your browser settings may affect cookies for this Website as well as for other websites you visit.
12. Changes to Cookies and Website Technologies
The cookies and similar technologies used on the Website may change over time.
We may add, remove, update, replace, or reconfigure cookies and similar technologies when we:
- introduce or discontinue Website features;
- update WordPress, plugins, themes, or other software;
- add or remove third-party services;
- modify analytics or security configurations;
- improve Website functionality or performance;
- respond to security requirements; or
- comply with changes in Applicable Law.
Accordingly, this Cookie Policy describes categories and purposes rather than providing a permanent guarantee that a particular cookie will always be used.
Where appropriate, the Cookie Policy may be updated to reflect changes in the technologies actually used on the Website.
13. Third-Party Websites and Embedded Services
The Website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, applications, platforms, payment services, communication services, social-media services, video services, or other external services.
When you access a third-party website or interact directly with a third-party service, that third party may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with its own policies.
We do not control the cookie practices of third-party websites or services that we do not operate.
You should review the relevant third party’s privacy and cookie policies before using such services where appropriate.
14. Children’s Use of the Website
Our Services are primarily intended for individuals who have completed 18 years of age.
We do not knowingly encourage or permit a child to independently create an Account or purchase Services using the child’s own details where parental or lawful guardian involvement is required.
Where a Service is made available to a child, registration, consent, verification, and related requirements will be handled through the child’s parent or lawful guardian to the extent required by Applicable Law.
We will not knowingly use cookies or similar technologies for prohibited behavioural monitoring or targeted advertising of children except to the extent expressly permitted by Applicable Law.
For further information concerning children and Personal Data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
15. Relationship With Our Privacy Policy
This Cookie Policy explains our use of cookies and similar technologies.
Our Privacy Policy provides broader information concerning the collection, use, disclosure, retention, security, and other processing of Personal Data.
Where information collected through cookies or similar technologies constitutes Personal Data, the relevant provisions of our Privacy Policy will also apply.
