1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They help a site remember information about your visit, such as whether you are signed in. Similar browser technologies, including session storage, can remember a preference without creating a cookie.
2. Cookies and Storage We Use
Sonamasuri.com uses essential cookies needed to provide account, security, marketplace and transaction features.
| Name or type | Purpose | Typical duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID or equivalent session ID | Keeps your session active, supports sign-in, protects forms and connects marketplace actions to the correct user or browser session. | Usually until the browser session ends, subject to server and browser settings. | Strictly necessary |
WRCF-Name and WRCF-Email | On a legacy payment/contact form, these may remember a name and email address when the user chooses to save that information. | Up to one year | Preference |
| Header announcement session storage | Remembers that you dismissed a site announcement during the current browser tab session. | Until the tab or browser session ends | Preference; not a cookie |
3. Why Essential Cookies Are Required
Essential cookies enable security and core functionality, including:
- Signing in and keeping the correct account session active
- Protecting forms against cross-site request forgery and misuse
- Maintaining cart, inquiry, order, auction and dashboard activity
- Remembering short-lived interface state during a visit
If you block these cookies, public pages may still open, but login and other interactive marketplace features may not work correctly.
4. Analytics, Advertising and Third Parties
Some historical or standalone files may contain legacy analytics code. If analytics, advertising or another non-essential cookie service is enabled across the active site in the future, this policy will be updated and any legally required consent controls will be provided before those cookies are used.
Links to external websites, social networks or service providers are governed by those organisations' own cookie and privacy policies after you leave Sonamasuri.com.
5. Managing Cookies
You can view, delete or block cookies using your browser's privacy settings. Browser help pages commonly place these controls under “Privacy”, “Cookies”, “Site data” or “Tracking protection”. You can also clear stored site data for Sonamasuri.com at any time.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may sign you out and prevent registration, forms, carts, orders, inquiries, bids or dashboards from functioning.
6. Do Not Track Signals
Because there is no universally accepted technical standard for browser “Do Not Track” signals, the site does not currently respond to them separately. We do not use this as permission to add advertising cookies.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when our website, legal obligations or cookie practices change. The latest version and effective date will always be published on this page.
