This Cookie Policy explains how Ananda Pact uses cookies and similar technologies on {{DOMAIN}}. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides a fuller picture of how we handle your personal data.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits and remember certain information about your preferences or behaviour.
Similar technologies include web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage — which serve analogous functions. For simplicity, we refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
Cookies are widely used across the internet and serve a range of legitimate functions: keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences, understanding how visitors use a site, and supporting the effectiveness of online advertising.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies on this website to:
- Ensure the website functions correctly and securely
- Remember your cookie consent preferences so we do not prompt you on every visit
- Understand how visitors navigate the site and which pages are most useful
- Measure the reach and effectiveness of any advertising we may run
- Improve the content and user experience of the site over time
We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information, to build profiles for sale to third parties, or for any purpose that we believe would be harmful to your interests.

5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on this site are set by third-party services we use to measure site performance and advertising effectiveness. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies which govern the data they collect:
- Google Analytics — web analytics service provided by Google LLC. Privacy information: policies.google.com/privacy
- Microsoft Bing Ads (UET) — advertising analytics provided by Microsoft Corporation. Privacy information: privacy.microsoft.com
- Meta Pixel (Facebook) — advertising measurement service provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. Privacy information: facebook.com/privacy/policy
We have no control over third-party cookies beyond our decision to enable or disable the services that set them. Where you decline non-essential cookies, we will not load these third-party services.
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several ways to control how cookies are used on your device:
On this website: When you first visit, you will be presented with a consent banner. You may accept all cookies or decline non-essential cookies. You can update your preference at any time by clearing your browser's local storage, which will cause the consent banner to reappear on your next visit.
Through your browser: Most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically configure your browser to:
- Block all cookies
- Block third-party cookies only
- Delete cookies when you close your browser
- Alert you before a cookie is placed
Browser settings differ; please consult your browser's help documentation for instructions. Be aware that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites.
Opt-out tools: You may also opt out of analytics tracking via Google Analytics Opt-out, and from interest-based advertising via the Network Advertising Initiative or Your Online Choices.
7. Your Consent
When you visit this website, we present a cookie consent banner that describes the categories of cookies in use. Clicking "Accept Cookies" records your consent for all cookie categories. Clicking "Decline" limits us to essential and preference cookies only.
Your consent is stored in your browser's local storage under the key cookieConsent for up to 12 months. After this period, or if you clear your browser data, you will be prompted again.
Essential cookies do not require your consent as they are necessary for the website to function. All other cookie categories require your prior consent before being activated.
You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing the cookieConsent entry from your browser's local storage and refreshing the page. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that occurred prior to withdrawal.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as we add new features, as third-party providers change their practices, or as regulatory requirements evolve. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Where changes require a fresh consent decision from you, the consent banner will be re-displayed on your next visit.
