Cookie Policy
Which cookies this site uses, why they exist, how long they last, and how to turn them off without losing access to the notes.
This policy explains how Ritik Sir Notes uses cookies and local browser storage. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
A cookie is a small file that a website asks your browser to store. It lets the site remember something between visits or between pages. “Local storage” is a similar browser feature that stores data without sending it back to a server on every request. Neither can run programs or read other files on your device.
2. Cookies and storage used on this site
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
rs_consent_v1 | Local storage (first party) | Remembers that you dismissed the cookie notice so it does not appear on every page. Contains only “accepted”. | Until you clear browser data |
We do not set first-party analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or session-identification cookies. We do not use a login cookie because there are no accounts.
| Provider | Example cookie | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
__gads, __gpi | Ad delivery, frequency capping and measurement for Google-served ads. | |
| Google / DoubleClick | IDE | Measures ad performance and helps select ads relevant to a browser’s previous activity. |
NID | Stores preferences and supports personalised advertising in Google products. |
Google and its partners may also use pixels, web beacons, IP addresses and device identifiers for the same purposes. Google’s current list of advertising cookies is maintained at Google’s cookie types page.
3. Why advertising cookies exist here
The notes on this site are free. Hosting, domain and maintenance costs are covered by advertising. Advertising cookies let Google show ads that are more likely to be relevant and measure whether they were seen, which is how the site is funded. They are not used by us to identify you personally.
4. How to control cookies
Opt out of personalised advertising
- Google Ads Settings — turn off ad personalisation across Google services.
- aboutads.info — opt out with participating third-party advertisers in the United States.
- Your Online Choices — the European interactive advertising opt-out page.
- Network Advertising Initiative — another industry opt-out tool.
Opting out does not remove ads; it makes them non-personalised. You may still see ads based on the page you are reading and your approximate location.
Browser settings
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies and site data. Look under Settings → Privacy and security:
Blocking all cookies may mean this site’s notice appears on every visit, but the notes will still work.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Browsers can send a “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control signal. Because advertising is delivered by Google, honouring those signals depends on Google’s systems rather than ours. The opt-out links above are the most reliable method.
5. Consent
When you first visit, a notice explains that the site uses cookies, including Google AdSense cookies, and links to this page. Dismissing the notice stores a preference in local storage. If you are in a region where consent is legally required for advertising cookies, you can withdraw consent at any time by clearing site data for this domain and using the Google opt-out links above.
6. Changes
If we add or remove a cookie, this page will be updated and the effective date revised. We will not add new categories of tracking without saying so here.
