Cookie Policy

Last updated: 11 February 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how VBlooms School (“VBlooms”, “we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. This notice is aligned with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and the Information Technology Act, 2000, as applicable in India.

1) What Are Cookies & Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, beacons, and SDKs. These help the Site function, remember your preferences, enhance performance, analyse usage, and support certain features like embedded videos or maps.

2) Types of Cookies We Use

  • Essential (Strictly Necessary): Required for core functionality, security, and accessibility (e.g., session management, CSRF protection, load balancing). These cannot be switched off in our systems.
  • Preferences: Remember choices such as language, region, or saved details to provide a more personalised experience.
  • Analytics/Statistics: Help us understand how the Site is used (e.g., pages visited, time on page, device/browser). We may use third-party analytics tools. Non-essential analytics require your consent where applicable.
  • Performance: Measure and improve performance (e.g., page load times, error diagnostics).
  • Marketing/Media: Used to deliver or measure content such as embedded videos (e.g., YouTube), maps (e.g., Google Maps), or social features. These may set cookies through our Site and build a profile of your interests. Consent is obtained where required.

3) Legal Basis & Consent

Under the DPDP Act, essential cookies are used based on legitimate uses necessary for providing the Site. We seek your consent for non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics or marketing) via a banner or settings panel where implemented. You can withdraw or modify your consent at any time using those controls.

4) Managing Your Cookie Preferences

  • If a cookie banner or “Manage Cookies” link is available on our Site, use it to change your preferences or withdraw consent.
  • You can also control cookies through your browser settings. The steps vary by browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Typically found under Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies/Website Data.
  • Blocking certain cookies may impact Site functionality or features such as media embeds, maps, and analytics.

5) Third-Party Cookies & International Transfers

Some cookies are placed by third parties (e.g., analytics providers, video platforms, payment gateways). We do not control how those third parties use data collected via their cookies. Please review their privacy and cookie policies. Some providers may process data outside India; we expect reasonable security safeguards and contractual protections to be in place.

6) Retention

Cookie lifespans vary. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period (e.g., days to months) unless you delete them earlier via browser settings or our preference tools.

7) Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. There is no common standard for DNT handling. We will review relevant industry standards and may update this policy if the approach evolves.

8) Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above indicates the latest version. Significant changes will be highlighted on the Site or via the consent banner where relevant.
