This site uses only essential and functional cookies. It does not use analytics, advertising or third-party tracking cookies, so no consent banner is needed for them. All our cookies are first-party. Except for the theme cookie (which the page script sets to remember light or dark mode), they are not readable by page scripts (HttpOnly).

Payment provider
When you pay, the payment provider's secure checkout (for example Razorpay) opens and may set its own cookies needed to process and protect the payment. Those cookies are governed by the provider's policies.
Offline support and settings stored in your browser
The site registers a service worker that stores the page shell (styles, scripts, icons) in your browser so that it loads faster and can work offline. While you browse, it also saves the next 7 days of Panchang for the city you are viewing, so today's Panchang can be shown without an internet connection; this is calculated data only, not personal data. A few small settings are kept in your browser's local storage: when the site last saved the offline Panchang, and — for the install suggestion — a page count and whether you chose “Not now”. If you turn on reminders, the service worker also receives and shows those notifications. None of this is sent to us except the reminder subscription described in the privacy policy.
Your control
You can delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Without the essential cookies you cannot sign in or submit forms; without the functional cookies your language, city and profile choices will not be remembered.
