What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, mobile phone, or other device when you visit a website. They help us:

Types of Cookies We Use

1. Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality like page navigation, form submissions, and secure log-ins.

Without these cookies, services such as donation processing or volunteer sign-up cannot operate.

2. Analytics & Performance Cookies

We use tools such as Google Analytics to understand user behavior, including which pages are visited, how long users stay, and what devices they use.

These cookies help us improve content and user experience, but do not collect personal identifiers.

3. Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember your preferences — such as language choice, form entries, or device type — to enhance usability.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some features on our website may rely on third-party services, such as embedded YouTube videos, WhatsApp chat, or payment gateways (like Razorpay). These platforms may set their own cookies.

We do not control the use of third-party cookies. Please refer to their respective privacy policies.

• You can accept or reject cookies through the banner when you first visit our site.

• You can modify or delete cookies anytime through your browser settings.
