The table is the whole story for now. Every page is plain HTML served by the host, with the stylesheet inlined and a small script that handles the menu and the WhatsApp button. Neither writes a cookie.
Why a site like this doesn't need them
Cookies are for remembering. A shop remembers your basket; a forum remembers that you're logged in. This site does neither. You read a page about, say, a Lotus365 ID, and if you want one you message the desk on WhatsApp. Nothing about that step happens on this site, so there is nothing for the site to store. The online cricket ID page explains why the ID is issued in a chat rather than by a form, and that design choice is the reason this policy is so short.
If analytics is switched on later
We may at some point enable Google Analytics to see which pages people read and where they get stuck. If we do, three things happen at once: this page gains a row describing what the analytics cookie stores and for how long, the privacy policy is updated to match, and the updates page carries an entry with the date. Until you see that entry, nothing has changed.
Even then, analytics would tell us that a page was read, not who read it. We would not link it to a WhatsApp number, an email or anything the desk holds about you.
Cookies are not how copycats get you
Copycat sites don't need cookies to do harm; they need you to type a password or send money to the wrong account. Cookie-free or not, the check is always the same: compare the address and the WhatsApp number against the official channels page before you act.
Cookies set by other services
Two things on this site take you elsewhere. The WhatsApp button opens WhatsApp, on your phone or in a browser tab, and the login link the desk sends opens the exchange. Both are run by other companies under their own cookie and privacy terms, which we neither see nor control. The safety page covers how to tell a real exchange login page from a copy, which matters far more than what either page stores.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can view, block or delete cookies for any site in your browser settings, usually under privacy or site data. Doing so here has no effect on how the site works, because nothing depends on one. If you block all cookies everywhere, some exchange login pages may stop working, and that is a matter for the exchange, not us.
Questions
Anything about this page goes by email; the contact page has the address. The terms of use and disclaimer sit alongside it.
