What are cookies?
Cookies and similar technologies (such as browser localStorage and sessionStorage) are small pieces of data stored in your browser. PunditPuja.Online uses these to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and provide a seamless booking experience.
1. Strictly Necessary
These are required for the site to function. They cannot be disabled. They are set when you log in and cleared when you log out.
| Name | Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ppo_firebase_uid | localStorage | Stores your Firebase user ID to keep you authenticated | Until logout |
ppo_supabase_uid | localStorage | Stores your Supabase user ID used in all API calls | Until logout |
ppo_admin_verified | sessionStorage | Flags admin session as verified for the current browser tab | Browser session |
ppo_logged_out | sessionStorage | Prevents accidental re-authentication after logout | Browser session |
Firebase SDK keys | localStorage | Firebase authentication tokens and refresh tokens (set by Firebase SDK) | Managed by Firebase |
2. Functional (requires consent)
These improve your experience. Location preference is required for the app to show pujas in your area and is always saved. Cart persistence is only saved if you choose "Accept All".
| Name | Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ppo_selected_city | localStorage | Remembers your selected service area/city — required to browse pujas in your area | Persistent |
ppo_selected_area_id | localStorage | Stores the ID of your selected area | Persistent |
ppo_selected_area_group | localStorage | Stores the area group (e.g. Delhi NCR) for filtering | Persistent |
astromall_cart | localStorage | Saves your Astromall shopping cart items when not logged in (Accept All only) | Persistent |
ppo_admin_name | localStorage | Displays your name in the admin panel header | Persistent |
3. Push Notifications
If you choose to allow browser push notifications, a subscription endpoint is saved in our database linked to your account. This is used only to send you booking updates. You can withdraw permission at any time from your browser settings.
| Name | Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ppo_push_asked | localStorage | Remembers that the push notification prompt has been shown so it is not shown again | Persistent |
Push subscription | Server (Supabase) | Browser push endpoint stored in our database to deliver booking notifications | Until revoked |
Your Consent Preferences
You can change your preference at any time.
How to manage cookies in your browser
You can clear all browser storage at any time through your browser settings. Note that clearing localStorage will log you out of PunditPuja.Online.
