Cookies are text files placed on your device by a web server via your browser. They enable the Site to recognize your browser and remember certain information, such as login status or preferences, to make the site more user-friendly. For instance, cookies can “remember you so you don't have to log in every time you visit”, or save your choices (like language or font size) during a visit. Our site uses cookies to deliver core functionality (such as authentication and security), to maintain site performance, and to provide personalized features like relevant content or offers.

Most cookies we use store only anonymous or aggregated data. NoLegalPaisa does not use cookies to collect personally sensitive data (like your credit card details or government ID number). They typically collect information such as your IP address, device/browser type, and how you navigate the site, which help us improve our services and protect the site’s security. By using our Site, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

We use various categories of cookies to run our website. These include:

• Session Cookies -
  Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are necessary for basic site operations (e.g. keeping you logged in during a session).
• Persistent Cookies -
  Cookies that remain on your device for a fixed period (e.g. a few days or years) even after you close the browser. We use these to remember your preferences between visits (e.g. language, account preferences) and to enable features like “remember me” for logins.
• Strictly Necessary Cookies –
  Core cookies required for our Site to function correctly. Examples include authentication cookies (which verify you are logged in) and security cookies (which help prevent fraud). Without these, the Site cannot operate properly.
• Functional (Preference) Cookies –
  Cookies that remember your choices to improve the experience, such as selected preferences (language, region, display settings) or form data. These enhance usability but are not essential to the basic function of the Site.
• Performance and Analytics Cookies –
  Cookies that collect anonymous information about how visitors use our Site. This includes things like which pages are visited most, how long users stay, and navigation patterns. We use this data to analyze site performance and improve the Site. For example, we use services like Google Analytics to gather aggregated traffic data and optimize our website’s functionality.
• Advertising (Marketing) Cookies –
  Cookies used to deliver relevant advertisements and measure ad performance. These may track your browsing across different sites to infer interests and show you targeted promotions. NoLegalPaisa itself does not display third-party ads on the Site, but we may work with ad networks or social platforms (e.g. Google, Facebook) which use their own cookies to serve and measure ads.
• Third-Party Cookies –
  Cookies set by external services we integrate (such as analytics tools, payment gateways, or social media widgets). These cookies are controlled by those third parties (not by NoLegalPaisa) and are subject to their privacy policies. We describe our use of third-party cookies below.

You have control over how cookies are used on your browser. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies if you wish. For example:

• In Google Chrome, go to Settings ➔ Privacy and Security ➔ Cookies and other site data, and adjust your preferences (such as “Block all cookies” or “Clear on exit”).
• In Mozilla Firefox, choose Options ➔ Privacy & Security ➔ Enhanced Tracking Protection, or scroll to Cookies and Site Data to remove cookies.
• In Safari,, go to Preferences ➔ Privacy, and check “Prevent cross-site tracking” or “Block all cookies.”
• In Microsoft Edge, select Settings ➔ Cookies and site permissions, then “Manage and delete cookies and site data.”

If you disable all cookies, some parts of NoLegalPaisa.com may not function properly. For instance, you might not stay logged in, and features like saving preferences or forms auto-fill may not work. Controlling cookies in your browser will prevent all cookies (including essential ones), which can disrupt key functionality. Note that deleting or blocking cookies after a session means you will need to log in again on your next visit and reconfigure any preferences.

We use some third-party services that place cookies on our site. For example:

• Analytics Providers: We use Google Analytics (and similar tools) to gather usage statistics. These third parties set their own cookies to collect and analyze your interaction with our site (pages visited, time spent, etc.).
• Payment and Chat Services: If you use online payments or live chat, the payment gateway or chat provider may use cookies to process your transaction or remember chat history.
• Social Media and Advertising: If you click a social “Share” button or view embedded content, the social platform (e.g. Facebook, LinkedIn) may set cookies in your browser. These cookies help those platforms track engagement or serve relevant content.
• Third-Party Plugins and Widgets: We may integrate third-party tools (e.g. reCAPTCHA, chatbots) that use cookies for their functionality.

As an Indian company, NoLegalPaisa is committed to following India’s information technology and data protection laws. Under the Information Technology Act, 2000 (as amended) and the IT Rules of 2011, cookies that collect personal data are subject to data protection requirements. In fact, legal experts note that cookies can be “unique identifiers” falling under the definition of personal data, so we adhere to principles like transparency, purpose limitation, and data minimization.

Additionally, India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) requires explicit user consent for any processing of personal data via cookies. Effective June 2024, websites must obtain clear opt-in consent before setting non-essential cookies. We comply with these rules by requiring your consent before using analytical or marketing cookies (see User Consent below). The DPDP Act (and earlier IT Rules) mandate that consent be “free, specific, informed, unconditional” – for example, by a “tick box” or pop-up consent banner. Under Section 43A of the IT Act, we maintain reasonable security practices to protect any personal data we handle. We do not set cookies to collect sensitive personal information without clear consent. In summary, our cookie practices are designed to meet Indian law requirements: we provide transparency (this policy), seek informed consent for non-essential cookies, and allow you to control or withdraw that consent at any time.

When you first visit NoLegalPaisa.com, you will see a cookie banner or notice that explains our use of cookies. The banner gives you the option to accept or reject non-essential cookies (such as analytics or advertising cookies). Essential cookies (strictly necessary) are required for the Site to work and will be set regardless. By clicking “Accept,” you agree to our use of cookies for the purposes described above. You may change or withdraw your consent at any time by revisiting the banner settings or using the cookie controls in your browser.

For example, you can revisit our privacy or cookie settings page to customize your preferences. Note that if you decline non-essential cookies, we may not be able to save your preferences or show you personalized content. However, you can still use all core features of the Site with only the essential cookies enabled. We do not proceed with non-essential tracking before you opt in.

NoLegalPaisa is not responsible for the cookie policies or practices of any third parties that may be linked from our Site. For instance, if you visit an external site through a link or embedded content, that site may set its own cookies. These cookies are beyond our control. We recommend reviewing the cookie and privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit. By using NoLegalPaisa.com, you agree that any risks from third-party cookies are assumed by you, as we “have no control” over such cookies.

If you have questions about our use of cookies or wish to learn more, please contact our support or review our Privacy Policy. We review this Cookie Policy regularly and will update it to reflect changes in technology, services, or legal requirements.
