This Cookie Policy explains how Madhuma.com, operated by Madhuma Global Ventures Private Limited (“Madhuma”, “we”, “us”), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website from India or anywhere else in the world.
It should be read with our Privacy Policy. You can change or withdraw cookie consent at any time with Cookie settings.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use similar tools such as local storage (for example, your light/dark theme choice and cookie consent record). Some cookies are essential to run an online store. Others help us understand how the site is used or support advertising, and those are used only if you allow them.
2. Your choices
When you first visit, we ask you to accept all cookies, keep only necessary cookies, or choose categories. Necessary cookies cannot be switched off if you want checkout, cart, and login to work. Analytics and marketing cookies stay off until you give consent.
This approach is designed for:
- Shoppers in India under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP) — consent that is free, specific, informed, and withdrawable
- Visitors in the EU/UK under GDPR and ePrivacy — opt-in before non-essential cookies
- Visitors in other regions, including California-style “do not sell or share” choices, by leaving marketing cookies off
3. Cookie categories
Necessary
Always used to provide the service you request:
- Session and security cookies (including login and CSRF protection)
- Shopping cart and checkout state
- Cookie consent record
- Display theme preference
Analytics (optional)
If you allow this category we load Google Analytics to understand page views, popular products, and how people move through the store. Google may process data on servers outside India. Analytics cookies are not set until you accept this category.
Marketing (optional)
If you allow this category we may use advertising and remarketing tags (for example Google ads storage). These stay off unless you opt in. You can refuse them without affecting your ability to browse or place an order.
4. How long we keep a choice
Your cookie preferences are stored for up to 12 months, then we will ask again. You can update them sooner with Cookie settings in the footer.
5. How to control cookies in your browser
You can also delete or block cookies in your browser. Blocking necessary cookies may stop cart, checkout, or login from working correctly.
