Cookie Policy

Cookies and browser local storage are small data files saved on your mobile device or computer when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember your selections as you browse different pages.

We believe in total transparency regarding the browser storage technologies used on our website:

A. Essential Technologies (Always Active):

• `bombay_namkeen_cart_v1` (localStorage): Retains your selected snack items, pack sizes, and quantities as you navigate between pages or refresh the browser.

• `bombay_namkeen_customer_details_v1` (localStorage): Retains your name, mobile number, and address ONLY if you explicitly check 'Save my contact info for future orders'.

• `bn_consent_preferences_v1` (Cookie / localStorage): Records whether you accepted necessary cookies or customized preferences so the consent prompt does not reappear on every page.

• `bn_consent_receipt_id_v1` (Cookie): Stores a random, opaque consent receipt identifier (e.g. `cr_xxxx`) used to audit proof of consent without tracking your personal identity.

• `sb-*-auth-token` (HTTP Cookie): Strictly used for authenticated staff and administrators to log into the protected admin management panel (`/admin`).

B. Optional Technologies (Off by Default):

• Analytics Storage (Optional): When explicitly enabled, allows aggregate measurement of page visits to improve website responsiveness. No cross-site profiling or selling of data is performed.

• Marketing & Tracking (Optional): We currently run NO third-party advertising trackers or ad network pixels on this website. If introduced in the future, they will remain strictly OFF until you give opt-in consent.

You can review, change, or withdraw your optional cookie preferences at any time by clicking the 'Privacy & Cookie Preferences' link in the website footer.

Withdrawing consent immediately deactivates optional categories and removes associated local identifiers. Essential shopping cart functionality will continue to work normally.
