What we use
Essential (always on): Session management, consent storage, security. These cannot be disabled as the site requires them to function.
Analytics (optional, off by default): Google Analytics — tracks which articles are read, for how long, and on which devices. IP addresses are anonymized where supported.
Marketing: We do NOT currently use marketing or advertising cookies. Charika Magazine does not run ads.
How long do cookies last?
- Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser
- Consent preferences: 12 months
- Analytics cookies: up to 26 months (Google Analytics default)
