Privacy policy

What this site collects

This site uses two measurement tools. Vercel Analytics counts anonymous page views: it is cookieless, stores nothing on your device, and cannot identify you. Google Analytics helps us understand which pages are read and where visitors come from; it sets cookies (such as _ga) and processes technical data, including your approximate location, under Google’s privacy policy (opens in new tab). We use the data only as aggregate statistics — never to identify individual visitors. We use no advertising trackers, and the site does not currently operate a contact form, so it collects no personal information you type.

Embedded videos

Some pages show YouTube videos as click-to-play previews. Until you press play, only the video’s thumbnail image is loaded from YouTube’s image servers. When you press play, the video streams through YouTube’s privacy-enhanced player (youtube-nocookie.com), and from that moment YouTube/Google may process technical data and set cookies under Google’s privacy policy (opens in new tab). If you never press play, no video player is loaded.

Outbound links

Links to YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, The Mooknayak, other press websites, and Kite Stories open on those platforms, which have their own privacy policies.

Hosting

The site is served by our hosting provider, which may process standard technical request logs (such as IP addresses) to deliver the site securely.

Changes

If a contact form or any new measurement is added in the future, this policy will be updated first, and the new behavior will be described accurately before it goes live.
