Nagrik does not deploy invasive cross-site tracking pixels or commercial ad retargeting cookies. We use lightweight local storage primarily to preserve your selected ward, interface language, theme choice, and secure creator login session.
1. What Are Cookies & Local Storage Tokens?
Cookies are small cryptographic text files placed on your browser or device when you visit web pages. Local Storage is a modern web browser mechanism that allows web applications to store key-value data directly on your device without transmitting it on every network request.
We use these technologies to maintain secure authentication and provide a customized local experience without asking you to re-select your city on every page load.
2. Categories of Storage Employed
Required for core security, session validation, and account protection. These include Supabase JWT tokens, CSRF tokens, and API rate-limiting trackers. Without these, publisher login and report uploads cannot function.
Remembers your selected city/ward (e.g. Patna, Varanasi, Gaya), chosen language (hi or en), and interface theme (light or dark).
Tracks active reading dwell time (5+ seconds) to reliably calculate verified reads for $1.50 CPM publisher compensation. This telemetry is aggregated, pseudonymous, and never tied to personal behavioral advertising profiles.
3. Third-Party Network Services
Certain external infrastructure partners may set cookies or inspect device headers solely to serve cached media assets and protect the network:
- Edge Delivery & Security Network: Bot mitigation, DDoS shielding, and edge media streaming.
- Google Fonts: Web typography delivery with zero cookie tracking.
- Google AdMob SDK: Operates in non-personalized mode in strict accordance with Section 9 of the DPDP Act 2023.
4. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You have the freedom to configure or delete cookies at any time through your browser preferences:
Note: Disabling strictly essential cookies will prevent you from signing in to the Nagrik Publisher Studio or submitting ground dispatches.

We periodically review our storage practices to maintain compliance with emerging standards. Any substantial changes will be posted on this page with an updated version timestamp.
