Your Cookie Choices Matter
Kulvaibhav uses cookies and similar technologies to operate its marketplace, remember preferences, improve performance, protect the website and, where permitted, understand marketing activity. This policy explains what cookies are, how they are used and the choices available to you.
Introduction
Kulvaibhav is an online marketplace focused on India’s handcrafted, handmade, handloom, cultural and artisan-made products.
When you visit or use kulvaibhav.com, we may use cookies and similar technologies to make the website function properly, remember your choices, understand how visitors use our website, improve performance and maintain security.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, the categories of cookies that may be used, how third parties may use cookies, and the choices available to you.
This policy should be read together with the Kulvaibhav Privacy Policy.
Our Approach
We aim to use cookies and similar technologies responsibly and transparently, and to provide appropriate choices for optional technologies where consent is required.
Where applicable law requires consent for a particular category of cookie or similar technology, we will use an appropriate consent or preference mechanism.

2.4 Similar Technologies
In addition to traditional cookies, websites may use pixels, web beacons, tags, local storage, session storage, scripts, device identifiers and similar technologies. This Cookie Policy may refer to these collectively as “cookies and similar technologies.”

Why Essential Cookies Matter
Disabling essential cookies may cause account, cart, checkout, authentication, security or other core website functions to stop working correctly.
Where a cookie is strictly necessary for a service requested by you or for a permitted essential function, it may be treated differently from optional cookies, subject to applicable law.

Managing & Controlling Cookies
You may have several ways to control cookies and similar technologies.
- Accept optional cookies.
- Reject optional cookies.
- Choose individual cookie categories.
- Withdraw previously provided consent.
- Change cookie preferences.
- Delete cookies from your device.
- Block cookies through your browser.
Where Kulvaibhav provides a cookie-preference mechanism, it can be used to manage optional categories.
Different Devices May Have Different Preferences
Cookie settings are often browser- or device-specific. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you may need to manage cookie preferences separately on each one.
Rejecting or disabling optional cookies should not necessarily disable cookies that are strictly required for essential website functions, security or services requested by you.
Browser Cookie Controls
Most modern web browsers provide controls for managing cookies.
Depending on the browser, you may be able to:
- View stored cookies.
- Delete cookies.
- Block cookies.
- Allow cookies.
- Block third-party cookies.
- Delete cookies when the browser closes.
- Receive notifications when cookies are used.
Google Chrome
Cookie controls are available through Chrome’s privacy and security settings.
Microsoft Edge
Cookie and tracking controls are available through Edge’s privacy settings.
Mozilla Firefox
Cookie and tracking controls are available through Firefox’s privacy settings.
Apple Safari
Cookie and website-tracking controls are available through Safari settings.
Browser controls vary by browser version and may change over time. Disabling all cookies may affect account, cart, checkout, authentication, security and other website functionality.
Consent & Cookie Preferences
Where applicable law requires consent for a cookie or similar technology, Kulvaibhav may provide a cookie-consent or preference mechanism.
Accept All
Allows the available cookie categories that are presented for consent to be enabled.
Reject Optional
Keeps optional categories disabled while allowing essential functionality to operate.
Manage Preferences
Allows available optional categories to be selected individually.
Save Preferences

13.1 Withdrawing Consent
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent through the available preference mechanism or other appropriate method.
Under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework, consent is intended to be free, specific, informed, unconditional and unambiguous, and withdrawal should be possible with ease comparable to giving consent, where the framework applies to the relevant processing. citeturn0search20
Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
13.2 Effect of Withdrawal
After optional consent is withdrawn, relevant optional technologies should no longer be activated for future processing where required by applicable law and the technical implementation.
Information collected before withdrawal may continue to be retained where another lawful basis, legal obligation, security requirement or other permitted purpose applies.
13.3 Essential Cookies
Withdrawing optional-cookie consent does not necessarily disable cookies that are strictly necessary for website operation, security or services requested by you.
Do Not Track & Similar Signals
Some browsers and devices provide a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar privacy signal.
Because there is not always a consistent technical standard for interpreting these signals across browsers, devices and services, Kulvaibhav may not respond to every DNT signal in the same manner.
Where legally required or where appropriate technology is available, we may recognise and honour applicable privacy preference signals.
Your browser’s privacy controls and any cookie-preference mechanism provided by Kulvaibhav may offer additional ways to control optional cookies and similar technologies.
Your Preference Comes First
Where a valid privacy preference or consent mechanism is applicable, we aim to respect the choices it communicates for the relevant processing.
