Cookie Policy

Last updated 2 November 2026

This policy explains how Navin Research ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on navinresearch.com and its subdomains. It should be read together with our privacy policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. They let a site remember your choices between page loads โ€” for example whether you kept the cookie banner closed, or whether you are signed in. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and SDK storage; we refer to all of them here as "cookies".

2. How we ask you

When you first visit, a banner asks whether you accept non-essential cookies. Nothing beyond strictly necessary storage runs until you choose. Your choice is stored on your device under the key navin_consent_v2, and you can change it at any time with the Manage Cookies link in that banner.
