Cookie Policy
The cookies and browser storage we use, and how you can control them.
Last updated: October 28, 2026
This page explains the cookies and similar technologies (browser storage) that CampusSeva uses, why, and how you can control them. It is part of our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Browsers also offer "local storage" and "session storage", which work in a similar way. We call all of these cookies here. Some are needed for the site to work, some remember your choices, and some help us count visits.
Cookies and Storage the Site Needs
These are set by CampusSeva itself. They do not track you across other websites.
| Name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
| cs-theme (local storage) | Remembers whether you chose light or dark mode. | Until you clear it |
| cs_ref (cookie) | Remembers the Refer and Earn link you came through, so a friend's enquiry can be counted for the person who shared it. Set only when you open a link with a referral code. | 30 days |
| Compare list (local storage) | Keeps the colleges, coaching institutes or hostels you added to Compare. It stays in your browser and is never sent to us. | Until you clear it |
| Saved items and app hint (local storage) | Remembers what you saved and whether you closed the "add to home screen" hint. | Until you clear it |
| cs-lead (session storage) | Holds your first name and request for a moment so the thank-you page can greet you and open a WhatsApp confirmation. It is cleared when you close the tab. | This visit |
| csai_v (cookie) | Used by the Ask AI assistant, only if you use it, so the hourly question limit works. It holds a random ID and no personal details. | 1 year |
| App cache (service worker) | Lets pages you have visited open when you are offline. It is never used for pages that need a login or for forms. | Until you clear it |
| wordpress_* and wp-settings-* (cookies) | Used only for our staff when they log in. Visitors do not get these. | Session to 2 weeks |
Analytics and Advertising Measurement
We use these tools to learn which pages are useful, to find problems, and to measure how our ads perform. Each one is used only when we switch it on, and it loads only after you start using a page (touch, scroll or key press). They are not used for logged-in staff.
| Provider and name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics 4: _ga, _ga_* | Counts visits and shows which pages and buttons are used. Data is combined, and we do not use it to identify you. | Up to 2 years |
| Microsoft Clarity: _clck, _clsk, CLID | Shows where visitors tap and scroll and where pages confuse them, using anonymised session recordings. Text typed into forms is hidden. | Up to 1 year |
| Meta Pixel: _fbp | Tells us when someone who saw our Facebook or Instagram ad sends an enquiry, so we can see which ads work. | Up to 90 days |
- We do not send what you type into our forms (name, phone, email, message) to these tools. They receive only the page, the event (for example "form sent" or "WhatsApp click") and technical details of your device.
- The tools may keep data on servers outside India. See each provider's own policy for details.
Other Services That Can Set Cookies
- Google reCAPTCHA on review and comment forms, to stop spam. It checks how your browser behaves and may set a cookie. See the Google Privacy Policy.
- Google Maps on the Contact page shows our office location. Google may set cookies when the map loads.
- YouTube videos use the privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com) and load only after you press play.
- WhatsApp and social links open those apps or sites, which then follow their own policies.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal, we do not load Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity or Meta Pixel for you.
How to Control Cookies
- Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies and site data. Look under Privacy or Site settings in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge. If you block all cookies, dark mode and referral links may stop working, but you can still use the site.
- To stop Google Analytics on every website, install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
- To control Meta ads, use the ad settings in your Facebook or Instagram account.
- You can also write to us to ask that we stop using analytics for you.
