Cookie Policy

What this website stores in your browser, why, and how to control it.

Last updated: [Date to be set at launch]

To confirmThis policy is a working draft prepared for the website build. It must be reviewed and approved by Bhagwati Sales Coorporation — and, where the company advises, by a legal professional — before the site goes live. Placeholders in square brackets require the company’s details.

1.What this site stores

This website is deliberately light on tracking. It does not use advertising cookies, social-media pixels or cross-site trackers.

Two things are stored in your own browser and never shared with a third party:

Enquiry list (local storage) — the products you add while browsing, so your list survives if you close the tab and come back. Stored under the key 'bsc-enquiry-v1'.
Campaign attribution (session storage) — the referring site and any campaign parameters from the address you arrived on, so that an enquiry submitted several pages later still records where you came from. Cleared when you close the browser.

2.Analytics

Where website analytics is enabled, it records which pages are viewed and which actions are taken — for example, downloading a catalogue or submitting an enquiry — so we can understand what buyers find useful. Analytics may set its own cookies.

Analytics is loaded only when a measurement ID has been configured for the site. IP addresses are anonymised where the analytics provider supports it.

[The company should confirm which analytics provider is in use and list its cookies here once configured.]

3.Strictly necessary storage

Some storage is required for the website to function — for example, protecting enquiry forms from automated submissions. This cannot be switched off without breaking the enquiry process.

4.Controlling cookies and storage

Every major browser lets you view, block and delete cookies and local storage through its settings.
Clearing site data for this website removes your saved enquiry list.
Blocking storage entirely does not prevent you from browsing the catalogue or submitting an enquiry, but your enquiry list will not persist between visits.

5.Consent

Where required by the law applicable to your location, a consent banner will be presented before any non-essential cookie is set.

[If the company markets actively into the EU or UK, a consent-management banner should be enabled before launch. See docs/DEPLOYMENT.md.]

6.Changes

As the website's tooling changes, this page will be updated. The date at the top shows when it was last revised.
