Privacy policy
The desk's privacy policy: anonymous analytics only, voluntary contact data with a 24-month retention window, no advertising cookies, no operator data sharing.
Privacy policy
The desk's privacy policy is short on purpose. The desk is an editorial publication, not an operator. The desk does not run a sign-in form, does not ask for credentials, does not process payments, and does not hold player funds. The desk's data footprint is correspondingly small.
What the desk collects
The desk collects two categories of data. First, anonymous analytics: page views, referrer, browser type, screen size. Second, voluntary contact data: the email address and the message body when a reader writes to the desk. The desk does not collect any other personal data.
What the desk does not collect
The desk does not collect names, addresses, phone numbers, PAN numbers, Aadhaar numbers, bank account numbers, UPI handles, or any other identifier. The desk does not run advertising that crosses site boundaries. The desk does not embed third-party trackers.
Cookies and analytics
The desk does not set any cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking. The desk's analytics tooling uses first-party cookies only and does not share data with advertising networks. The reader can disable first-party cookies through the browser without affecting the desk's content.
Data retention
Anonymous analytics are retained for 90 days. Voluntary contact data is retained until the reader requests deletion or for 24 months, whichever is sooner. The desk's contact hub is the right channel for deletion requests.
