Learn how ChatHindi uses cookies and similar technologies — what we store, why, and how to control it.
ChatHindi uses minimal cookies. We use essential cookies to keep you logged in, and Google AdSense may use cookies for non-targeted advertising. We do not use tracking cookies for profiling.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — like whether you are logged in — so you don't have to re-enter it every time.
These cookies are necessary for ChatHindi to function. Without them, you cannot stay logged in or use core features.
| Cookie / Storage Key | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| ct (localStorage) | Stores your authentication token (JWT) | Until logout |
| cm (localStorage) | Stores your profile info (username, avatar) | Until logout |
| cs (localStorage) | Stores your display preferences (theme, font) | Persistent |
| cover_* (localStorage) | Stores your chosen profile cover style | Persistent |
These are stored in your browser's localStorage, not as HTTP cookies. They never leave your device to our servers.
ChatHindi is supported by Google AdSense advertising. Google may set cookies to show ads. We have configured AdSense to use non-personalised ads by default, which means:
ChatHindi does not currently use Google Analytics, Hotjar, or any other analytics cookies. We may add privacy-respecting analytics in the future and will update this policy accordingly.
Most of the data ChatHindi stores is in browser localStorage, not traditional HTTP cookies. localStorage data never automatically travels to our server — it stays on your device and is only read by the ChatHindi page itself.
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings:
Clearing localStorage will log you out of ChatHindi and reset your theme preferences. You will need to log in again.
We may update this Cookie Policy as our services evolve. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
