You can control or manage cookies through your web browser.

Most modern browsers allow you to:

• Block cookies

However, disabling necessary cookies may cause certain Lekhak features to stop working correctly.

11. Browser Controls

Cookie controls are generally available in browsers such as:

• Opera

The exact settings and instructions may vary depending on your browser and version.

12. Advertising Preferences

Depending on your location, device, browser, and the advertising services used by Lekhak, you may have options to control personalized advertising.

You may also be able to manage advertising identifiers through your mobile device settings.

Blocking advertising cookies may not necessarily remove advertisements. It may instead result in advertisements that are less personalized.

13. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” (DNT) setting.

Because there is currently no universally consistent technical standard for interpreting DNT signals across all services, Lekhak may not respond to every DNT signal in the same way.

Where required by applicable law, we will handle applicable privacy preference signals according to the requirements of that law.

14. Cookie Duration

Cookies may be either:

Session Cookies

These cookies are temporarily stored and are generally deleted when you close your browser or end your session.

Persistent Cookies

These cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose and the service that places it.
