What Are Cookies?
Cookies are tiny files that are downloaded to your computer to track particular aspects of your activity online to help us learn certain things about our website. This page describes what information they gather, how we use it, and why we sometimes need to store these cookies. We will also share how you can prevent these cookies from being stored; however, this may downgrade or ‘break’ particular elements of the site’s functionality. You may see a list of all cookies used on this site at the bottom of the page.
Disabling Cookies
You can prevent cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser (see your browser Help for how to do this) or manually selecting which cookies you prefer on the pop-up that appears when you first visit the site. You can also opt-out of tracking by many companies using cookies via the Network Advertising Initiative Consumer Opt-Out.
Our Cookies
This document informs Users about the technologies that help ApnaApnaStyle.com to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Owner to access and store information (for example, by using a Cookie) or use resources (for example, by running a script) on a User’s device as they interact with ApnaApnaStyle.com.
For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as “Trackers” within this document – unless there is a reason to differentiate.
For example, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they are browser-based Tracker. For this reason, within this document, the term Cookies is only used where it is specifically meant to indicate that particular type of Tracker.
Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also require the User’s consent. Whenever consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in this document.
ApnaApnaStyle.com uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner (so-called “first-party” Trackers) and Trackers that enable services provided by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers). Unless otherwise specified within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers managed by them.
The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some of them expire upon termination of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what’s specified in each category’s descriptions below, Users may find more precise and updated information regarding lifetime specifications. Users can also find any other relevant information – such as other Trackers – in the respective third-party providers’ linked privacy policies or by contacting the Owner.
Form-Related Cookies
When you submit data through a form such as those found on contact pages or comment forms, cookies may be set to remember your user details for future correspondence.

Third-Party Cookies
In some special cases, we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties. The following section details which third party cookies you might encounter through this site.
Order-Processing Related Cookies
You can purchase items such as fan merch, and the purchases often appear to be occurring on ApnaApnaStyle.com. In reality, we use third-party platforms and processors, and these companies will often use cookies to track sales, etc.
Account and Login Related Cookies
With particular products or services we offer, we may provide you with an account and login details. If so, the third-party platform we use will often employ cookies to make login easy, and so we can identify you as a paying customer.
