How we use cookies and similar technologies on Lavamgam.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. We also use similar browser storage (such as localStorage) for preferences and consent choices. Together they keep you signed in securely, remember settings, and — only with your consent — help us understand site usage.
Sent between your browser and our servers. Our signed-in session uses an HttpOnly cookie so client-side scripts cannot read the session token.
Stored in the browser for UI preferences (for example theme or news view mode) and your cookie-consent choice. We do not store platform authentication tokens in localStorage.
Required for security and core features (sign-in, session, load balancing). These cannot be disabled if you use authenticated features.
lavamgam-session), security-related cookies from our auth providersRemember choices such as theme, news layout, region preference, and cookie consent so the site works the way you left it.
lv-region), theme and view-mode keys in localStorage, consent choice in localStorageIn production we use Google Analytics to understand page views, approximate location (country/region level), device type, and traffic sources. Analytics storage defaults to denied until you accept analytics in our cookie banner. We use IP anonymization where configured. We do not use analytics for ads.
We do not use advertising, retargeting, or ad-personalization cookies. Lavamgam does not display ads and does not share cookie data with advertisers.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| lavamgam-session | Essential cookie (HttpOnly) | Signed-in session for the platform (not readable by page JavaScript) | Up to ~30 days |
| lv-region | Functional cookie | Preferred news region / country filter | Up to ~30 days |
| lavamgam-cookie-consent-v1 | Functional (localStorage) | Stores analytics accept / essential-only choice | Until cleared |
| news-view-mode, theme, related keys | Functional (localStorage) | UI preferences (layout, theme, onboarding flags) | Until cleared |
| Google Analytics cookies | Analytics (optional) | Usage measurement in production after consent | Per Google Analytics defaults |
| Auth provider cookies | Essential / security | Firebase / Google sign-in security and session helpers | Per provider |
On production visits, a cookie banner lets you:
Essential and functional preferences still work. You can clear site data in your browser to reset consent and see the banner again. See also our Privacy Policy.
Optional usage analytics after consent (production only).
Authentication; may set its own security cookies.
May use operational cookies or edge headers (for example approximate country) to serve the site.
During checkout, Razorpay may set its own cookies on its payment domain. Governed by Razorpay's policies.
You can view, block, or delete cookies in your browser. Blocking essential cookies will prevent sign-in and other authenticated features.
Impact: Disabling essential cookies breaks login. Declining analytics does not affect core reading features. Clearing localStorage resets theme, view mode, and consent.
