Cookie Policy

Effective date: 30 July 2026
Last updated: 30 July 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Janardhana Silk House and its providers use cookies, pixels, tags, browser local storage, software development kits, and similar technologies (“Cookies”) on www.janardhanasilk.com.

It supplements our Privacy Policy. Capitalised terms not defined here have the meaning given there.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small data files stored on or read from a browser or device. Some expire when the browser closes; others remain for a defined period. Similar technologies can store settings, recognise a browser, measure interactions, reconstruct a website session, or enable content supplied by another provider.

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use Cookies to:

  • keep the Site, accounts, cart, checkout, and payment flow working securely;
  • remember country, currency, language, cart, wishlist, comparison list, and preferences;
  • detect fraud, errors, abuse, and performance problems;
  • understand visits, navigation, clicks, taps, scrolling, and customer journeys;
  • operate reviews, product videos, social feeds, order tracking, and other store features;
  • measure communications and campaigns; and
  • support advertising or personalisation where enabled, permitted, and consented to.

3. Cookie Categories

Category What it does Consent treatment
Strictly necessary Cart, checkout, security, load balancing, fraud prevention, account access, payment, consent records, and requested core features Normally active because the Site cannot provide the requested service without them
Functional Remembers currency, region, display, wishlist, comparison list, and optional preferences Consent or another lawful basis is used where required
Analytics and performance Measures visits, page performance, errors, heatmaps, and session-replay events Used only according to applicable consent requirements
Advertising and targeting Measures campaigns, builds audiences, limits repetition, or supports relevant advertising Used only when enabled and according to applicable consent or opt-out requirements
Social and embedded content Loads Instagram feeds, videos, sharing tools, or other third-party content Non-essential embeds are consent-gated where required

4. Providers and Technologies

The exact Cookies can change as providers update their services. The Site may use:

Provider or feature Typical purpose and data
Shopify Store hosting, security, cart, checkout, customer accounts, payments, fraud prevention, analytics, consent choices, and Shopify consumer features

Provider retention periods vary by technology, configuration, account plan, and legal requirement. A provider may set both short session Cookies and longer-lived identifiers. Current details are available from:

5. Session Replay and Heatmaps

Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar, and Contentsquare may create visual reconstructions of Site use from page structure and events such as clicks, taps, scrolling, navigation, and errors. This is not a camera recording of the visitor.

We do not use these tools to intentionally collect passwords, complete card data, or sensitive form contents. We use available masking, suppression, access, page-exclusion, and consent controls. Payment checkout may also occur within a provider-controlled environment with separate security and privacy controls.

6. Wishlist and Comparison Local Storage

The Site stores product handles selected for the wishlist and comparison list in your browser under local-storage keys used by the theme. This keeps those selections available on the same browser. The data is not necessarily linked to a customer account.

You can remove it by clearing the list within the Site, clearing Site data in the browser, or using a private browsing session.

7. Your Choices

Where a cookie banner or privacy-preferences control is available, you can:

  • accept or reject non-essential categories;
  • make category-specific choices;
  • change consent later; and
  • access any applicable data-sharing opt-out.

Rejecting non-essential Cookies does not prevent the strictly necessary Cookies required to provide the Site. Some optional functions, embedded content, recommendations, or analytics may be unavailable.

Browser controls can block or delete Cookies, but blocking all Cookies may break cart, account, checkout, currency, or security functions.

Additional provider controls may include:

Browser-based preference signals, including Global Privacy Control, are honoured where required by applicable law and supported by the relevant system.

8. International Processing

Cookie providers may process identifiers and usage data in countries outside India or your country of residence. See our Privacy Policy for international-transfer information.

9. Changes

We may update this Policy when technologies, providers, configurations, or legal requirements change. The revised date will appear above. Material changes will receive any additional notice or consent required by law.
