Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 30, 2026

TheHanumanChalisa ("we", "us", "our") operates the thehanumanchalisa.com website. This Privacy Policy describes the information collected when you use the site, the purposes for which it is processed, and the choices available to you.

Information We Collect

The site does not require an account and does not ask you for personal information. There is nothing to sign up for and no profile to create. The text you read is served as static pages; what you read, and how far you scroll, is not recorded by us. Information is otherwise collected only as described in the sections below.

Local Storage

Your reading preferences are stored locally in your browser usinglocalStorage: the light or dark theme, the text size chosen with the A− and A+ controls, and whether verse meanings are shown.

None of this is transmitted to us or to anyone else. It is written and read only by the page running on your device, and clearing your browser data removes it. It is not a cookie and is not sent with network requests.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We do not set cookies of our own. Cookies and similar identifiers present on the site are placed by the third-party providers described below, and may be managed or removed through your browser settings. Where applicable law requires consent, non-essential identifiers are set only after that consent is given, and the choice may be revisited at any time.

Advertising

The site is supported by advertising served through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this and other websites. Ads may be served on a personalised or non-personalised basis; in either case, identifiers are used for purposes including frequency capping, measurement and fraud prevention.

You may opt out of personalised advertising through Google Ads Settings. Further information is available at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Fonts

The Devanagari and Latin typefaces used on the site are downloaded at build time and served from our own domain. No request is made from your browser to a font provider, and no data reaches one as a result of your visit.

Third-Party Services

We use third-party hosting and infrastructure providers to serve the site. These providers may log standard technical information, including IP address and browser type, for security and performance purposes. Messages submitted through the Contact Us page are processed by Formspree and used solely to respond to your enquiry. Each provider processes data under its own privacy policy.

Children's Privacy

The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your Rights

Because we do not collect or hold personal information about you, there is ordinarily nothing for us to retrieve, correct or erase on request. Where you have written to us through the contact form, you may ask us to delete that correspondence at any time.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Revisions take effect when posted to this page under a revised "Last updated" date.
