Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Koshi Academy ("we," "us," "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on koshipixel.com. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display settings) over time, so you don't have to re-enter them on every visit or when browsing between pages. Similar technologies — like local storage, session storage, pixel tags and web beacons — are covered by this policy too.

2. Types of cookies we use

2.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential for the site to function and cannot be switched off. They include:

• koshi-session — keeps you logged in across pages. Expires on logout or 30 days.
• koshi-cart — remembers courses you added to the cart. Local-storage, cleared on checkout.
• koshi-cookies — stores your cookie-consent choice.
• CSRF-token — protects against cross-site-request-forgery attacks. Session only.

2.2 Preference cookies

• koshi-theme — remembers your light/dark theme choice.
• koshi-lang — remembers your preferred language (English/Hindi).

2.3 Analytics cookies

Set only if you accept cookies. These help us understand how our site is used:

• _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics 4; distinguishes unique users and sessions. Expiry: 2 years.
• _clck, _clsk — Microsoft Clarity; records anonymised session heatmaps. Expiry: 1 year.

2.4 Marketing cookies

Set only if you accept cookies. These help us show you relevant Koshi Academy ads on other platforms you visit:

• _fbp — Facebook Pixel; tracks ad conversions.
• IDE, _gcl_au — Google Ads conversion tracking.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties (Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Razorpay). We do not control those cookies — refer to the respective privacy policies for details:

• Google — policies.google.com/privacy
• Microsoft — privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement
• Meta/Facebook — facebook.com/policies/cookies/
• Razorpay — razorpay.com/privacy/

4. How to control cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

• Our cookie banner. On your first visit you can "Accept" or "Decline" non-essential cookies. Clear your browser storage to see the banner again.
• Your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. See:
  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Safari
  • Edge
• Browser "Do Not Track" header. We respect DNT headers by not setting analytics or marketing cookies.
• Opt-out tools. optout.aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.eu.

5. Impact of disabling cookies

Blocking strictly necessary cookies will break parts of the site (you won't be able to stay logged in, add to cart or check out). Blocking preference, analytics and marketing cookies has no functional impact — the site still works, we just won't be able to personalise or measure as well.

6. Children

Our Services are intended for users aged 16 and above. We do not knowingly track children under 16 across sites.

7. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top always reflects the current version.
