Cookie Policy

Last updated: September 2, 2026

1. What this policy covers

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) the Indian Mercado website and platform use, and why. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They allow a website to remember information between visits or between pages, such as a language preference or a signed-in session.

3. Cookies we use

We keep the cookies used on our website and platform to what is needed for the site to function well.

Language preference

We use a cookie (named im_locale) to remember whether you have chosen English or Spanish, so you don't need to reselect your language on every visit. This cookie is functional and does not track you across other websites.

Session and authentication

When you sign in to the Indian Mercado platform, we use session cookies to keep you securely logged in as you move between pages. These cookies are essential for the platform to work and are removed or expire when you sign out or your session ends.

Analytics (where enabled)

In some environments, we may use an analytics cookie to understand general, aggregated usage of our website — for example, which pages are visited — so we can improve it. This analytics capability is configuration-dependent and is not necessarily active for every visitor at every time. Where it is active, it is used only to understand website usage, not to build advertising profiles.

4. Cookies we do not use

We do not use cookies to sell your data or to serve third-party advertising based on your activity on our website.

5. Managing cookies

Most browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies through their settings. Blocking essential cookies, such as the language preference or session cookie, may affect how the website and platform work — for example, you may be signed out unexpectedly or the site may not remember your language choice.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as the website and platform evolve. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page when we do.

7. Contact us

This Cookie Policy is a general, good-faith draft provided for transparency and does not constitute legal advice. It should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before being relied upon as a binding legal document.
