What cookies and browser storage do
Cookies are small values a browser can send with requests. Local storage and session storage keep information in that browser. Dainik Gorakhpur uses these technologies for the functions described below; the notice does not give the website access to unrelated files or devices.
Essential and requested functions
Authentication and security storage supports staff sign-in and trusted-browser verification. Local preferences support the selected language, light or dark mode and saved articles. Local draft recovery stores unfinished staff writing under the signed-in account. A comment-session identifier helps prevent repeated submissions. These functions are separate from optional advertising.
Optional advertising and measurement
Accepting optional cookies allows Google Analytics, the configured Google advertising integration and session-based article measurement to run, subject to the publisher’s advertising controls and any required Google consent message. Essential-only and Not now keep optional ad requests and session measurement blocked. Explicitly opening Google privacy settings may load Google’s consent loader so you can review its choices without loading the advertising script. Reading articles and viewing existing comments does not require acceptance.
When enabled, Google and advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses and identifiers for advertising and measurement. The Privacy Policy explains these uses and links to Google’s controls. The simple website notice does not substitute for a certified CMP where Google requires one.
How often the notice appears
Accept optional cookies and Essential only are remembered on the same browser profile. They are not reset every time you open a page. Not now, or closing the initial notice, postpones it for 24 hours without granting optional-cookie permission. A new browser or device starts with its own choice. Clearing site data or an updated consent-policy version can make the notice appear again.
Change or withdraw your choice
Use Cookie settings below or in the footer at any time. Choosing Essential only withdraws permission for optional integrations; if an advertising script has already loaded, the public page reloads to stop it from continuing. Changing this choice does not automatically delete cookies already set by another provider; use your browser controls to remove those as well.
Your browser’s site-data controls can remove cookies and storage, including login sessions, saved articles and local writing recovery. Database articles that were successfully saved are not deleted by clearing browser data. If storage is blocked, a preference may last only until the page is reloaded.
External websites
Following a source or advertisement link takes you to another service. That service’s cookies and choices are controlled by its provider. Google ad preferences can be managed separately through My Ad Center.
Google Analytics
With your optional-cookie acceptance, Dainik Gorakhpur uses Google Analytics 4 to understand readership and website use. Google may process page addresses and titles, browser/device information, approximate location and engagement data collected by its tag, and use Analytics cookies. Google Signals and ad-personalisation signals are disabled by this installation.
The Analytics tag is blocked before acceptance, with Essential only or with Not now. Private staff/login, application, preview, ID-card verification and page-editor routes are excluded. We do not send passwords, OTPs, identity documents, application records or comment text as custom Analytics events.
Analytics acceptance does not grant Google advertising consent. AdSense remains subject to the separate Google consent message and publisher controls. Use Cookie settings to withdraw optional permission; an already-loaded tag is stopped through a page reload. Cookies already stored by a provider can be removed using your browser settings.
