web traffic and its other relevant attributes. Google does not share with us any information
about individual visitors and we can only access aggregated data.
We, however, use session cookies or temporary cookies, like many other websites. They are not
stored on users’ hard drive, but are rather kept in active memory. They are deleted when their
session closes, or after a period of inactivity (usually 20 minutes or so). These cookies are used
only to make their visit to the website efficient and cannot infringe on your privacy.

Members interact with us through various engagement windows some of which are currently
operational on our website.

star rating panel and share with us their views on a story by writing a letter to the editor.
Similarly, we can approach certain members by sending them invitations to events, online and
others, calls for assisting us in developing a story or a call for action under a campaign that Lok
Sujag is running.

efforts and strategy.

We reserve the right to ascertain/validate the fact that our member is a real person through all
lawful means.
