Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to the website operators.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Admitix ("we," "us," or "our") uses them on admitix.in and its sub-domains (collectively, the "Platform"), and your choices regarding their use.

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Platform to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, the Platform cannot operate properly.

• Authentication: Verifying your identity when you log in and keeping your session secure.
• Security: Protecting against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and other security threats.

• Communication Preferences: Storing your opt-in/opt-out choices for marketing communications.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Platform by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to count visits and traffic sources, measure page load times, and identify which pages are most and least popular.

• Usage Analytics: Tracking page views, session duration, bounce rates, and user navigation paths.
• Performance Monitoring: Measuring page load times, error rates, and API response times to improve platform performance.
• Feature Usage: Understanding which features are most used to prioritize development efforts.

• Targeted Advertising: Delivering advertisements relevant to your interests based on your browsing activity.
• Ad Measurement: Measuring the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.
• Retargeting: Showing you ads for Admitix on other websites you visit after leaving our Platform.

The following table lists the main cookies used on the Platform:

• next-auth.session-token — Strictly Necessary — Maintains your authenticated session. Expires when session ends or after 24 hours.

Some cookies on the Platform are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control the setting of these cookies. The third-party services we use include:

• Google Analytics: Web analytics service that tracks and reports website traffic. Google's privacy policy applies to data collected through their cookies.
• Google Sign-In: Authentication service that allows you to sign in using your Google account. Subject to Google's privacy policy.
• Vercel Analytics: Performance and analytics monitoring for our web application infrastructure.

We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of these third-party services for more information about their data practices.

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies to store information on your device:

• Local Storage: We use browser local storage to save user preferences, blog URL configurations, and cached data to improve performance. Local storage data persists until explicitly cleared by you or our application.
• Session Storage: Temporary storage used during a single browser session for state management, such as test progress and form data. This data is automatically cleared when you close your browser tab.

You have several options for managing cookies:

Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. The following links provide guidance for common browsers:

• Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and Other Site Data
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Privacy, Search, and Services > Cookies and Site Permissions

Opt-Out Tools

• Google Analytics Opt-Out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data.
• Network Advertising Initiative: Visit the NAI opt-out page to opt out of targeted advertising from participating ad networks.
• Digital Advertising Alliance: Use the DAA opt-out tool to manage online behavioral advertising preferences.

Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable or block certain cookies, some features of the Platform may not function properly. Specifically:

• Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in and using core Platform features.
• Disabling functional cookies may cause the Platform to forget your preferences and require you to re-enter information.
• Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your use of the Platform but will prevent us from improving our services based on usage data.

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your browsing activity tracked. There is currently no universal standard for how companies should respond to DNT signals.

At this time, the Platform does not respond to DNT signals. However, you can manage your tracking preferences using the cookie controls and opt-out tools described above.

The retention period for cookies depends on whether they are "session" or "persistent" cookies:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are used primarily for authentication and security purposes.
• Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period or until you manually delete them. We use persistent cookies for remembering preferences and analytics. Retention periods range from 24 hours to 2 years depending on the cookie's purpose.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our use of cookies, technology, or legal requirements. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on the Platform and updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to periodically review this Cookie Policy to stay informed about how we use cookies.
