1 · Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Bhumivox Experiences Private Limited (“Bhumivox”, “we”, “our” or “us”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website www.bhumivox.com (the “Website”). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we handle personal information.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device on repeat visits, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage and web beacons — these are all collectively referred to as “cookies” in this Policy.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to make the Website work reliably, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use the Website, and — where you have consented — deliver marketing communications that are relevant to you.

We classify cookies into four categories. You control which categories are active on your device (see Section 5).

4 · How Long Cookies Last
Cookies have different lifespans depending on their purpose:

Specific durations vary by cookie. Analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics) typically retain data for up to 26 months by default. Marketing cookies typically expire between 30 to 90 days after last activity, unless renewed by continued engagement.
You can clear cookies from your device at any time through your browser settings.
