India Market Lens sets no cookies.
Not one: no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers, no Google Analytics, no social pixels. Everything we keep lives in your browser's local storage, stays on your device, and is listed in full below. The law treats local storage the same way it treats cookies, so we disclose it the same way.
Your choice
We count visits ourselves: page path, approximate location from your IP, browser type, to understand which parts of the site are useful. It is first-party, never sold or shared, and raw records are deleted after seven days. You can switch it off.
We also honour your browser's Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals automatically, whatever you choose here.

For each page view we store the time, the page path, the referring site, your browser's user-agent string and your IP address, which we resolve once to an approximate city and country. We do not build advertising profiles, we never sell or share the data, and no third party receives it. Raw records are deleted automatically after seven days, and only anonymous aggregate counts remain after that.
This page describes how the site behaves today and is written in plain English rather than legal drafting. If you operate India Market Lens commercially, have a lawyer review it against your obligations.
