At TG Movies (tgmovies.in), we are dedicated to complete transparency regarding the automated technologies, cookies, and local data storage mechanisms deployed across our site. This policy outlines how cookies operate, why they are utilized, and how you can exercise granular control over your digital footprint.
1. What Are Cookies & Web Storage Technologies?
Cookies are compact alphanumeric text files placed onto your computer, tablet, or smartphone by web servers when you browse online. They allow websites to remember your device, preserve session security, maintain user preferences across navigation clicks, and deliver personalized editorial content. Alongside standard cookies, modern websites utilize HTML5 localStorage and sessionStorage to store client-side preferences without transmitting data across every network packet.
2. Categorization of Cookies Used on TG Movies
We classify the cookies and tracking tokens deployed on our platform into three explicit operational tiers:
A. Strictly Essential Technical Cookies
These cookies and storage tokens are necessary for our website to function properly and securely. Because our site operates on the Cloudflare edge network, security tokens (such as __cf_bm and bot mitigation cookies) distinguish authentic human readers from malicious automated scrapers. Additionally, we use browser localStorage to store your theme selection (Dark Mode / Light Mode) and your cookie consent decision so you are not disrupted repeatedly. Strictly essential cookies do not track your browsing history across other domains and cannot be deactivated.
B. Analytical & Performance Optimization Cookies
Performance cookies collect aggregated, anonymous telemetry regarding page loading speeds, First Contentful Paint (FCP), Core Web Vitals, and server routing performance via Cloudflare Web Analytics. These analytical tools measure network latency and cache hit ratios without harvesting personal identifying information, IP addresses, or cross-site tracking profiles.
C. Advertising & Google AdSense Partner Cookies
To support our independent movie critiques, investigative film journalism, and real-time box office analytics without charging reader paywalls, TG Movies partners with authorized advertising networks, including Google AdSense:
- Google DoubleClick DART Cookies: Google utilizes DART cookies to serve contextual and interest-based advertisements to users based on their visits to TG Movies and other destinations across the Internet.
- Targeting & Frequency Capping: These cookies prevent the same banner advertisement from displaying repeatedly and tailor ad creatives to relevant audience interests.
- Opt-Out Options: Readers can decline or customize interest-based advertising preferences at any time by visiting Google's official Ad Settings page at adssettings.google.com or via the Digital Advertising Alliance consumer choice portal at aboutads.info.

4. Managing & Disabling Cookies in Your Web Browser
