Cookie Policy

1. About this Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy ("Policy") explains how AMPSTAR (referred to here as "AMPSTAR", "the Company", "we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on https://ampstar.in/ (the "Website") , the official corporate website of the Company.

This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions of Use. It forms part of, and is incorporated into, our Privacy Policy. Any personal data collected through cookies is handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy and applicable law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025.

2. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

A cookie is a small text file, typically made up of letters and numbers, that is placed in the memory of your browser or device when you visit a website. Cookies allow the website to recognise a particular device or browser, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used.

We also use similar technologies that work in comparable ways, including:

  • Pixels and tags — small pieces of code that help us understand activity on the Website;
  • Software development kits (SDKs), local shared objects, and local storage — used by some web technologies to store information on your device. These technologies can operate across all of your browsers, and in some instances may not be fully managed by your browser and may require management directly through your installed applications or device; and
  • Server logs — which record certain technical information automatically.

In this Policy, we may use the terms "cookies" or "similar technologies" interchangeably to refer to all technologies that we may use to store data in your browser or device, or that collect information or help us identify you in the manner described above, unless stated otherwise.

Cookies may be:

  • First-party cookies, set by us; or third-party cookies, set by a third party (for example, an analytics provider) on our behalf.
  • Session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when you close your browser; or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period (typically between sixty (60) and ninety (90) days, depending on the cookie) or until you delete them.

3. How We Use Cookies

As a corporate information website, we use cookies primarily to make the Website work, to remember your choices, and to understand and improve how the Website performs. We use cookies for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies. These are essential for the Website to function and to provide the services you request — for example, enabling page navigation, maintaining security, load- balancing, remembering your cookie-consent choices, identifying irregular site behaviour, preventing fraudulent activity, and improving security controls. Because the Website cannot function properly without them, these cookies do not require your consent and cannot be switched off through our preference tools.

Functional / preference cookies. These allow the Website to remember choices you make — such as your language or region — to provide enhanced, more personalised features. Where required by law, we set these cookies only with your consent.

Performance / analytics cookies. These help us understand how visitors interact with the Website — for example, which pages are visited most often and whether visitors encounter errors — so we can measure and improve performance. We currently use Google Analytics for this purpose. The information is typically aggregated and used for statistical purposes. Where required under applicable law, we will set these cookies only with your consent.

Advertising / marketing cookies. This Website may use certain first-party or third-party advertising and behavioural-targeting cookies to deliver content, including targeted advertising and remarketing, on the Website or on third-party sites. These cookies enable us to understand how you interact with our services, assess the usefulness of advertisements and content delivered to you, measure whether advertisement clicks resulted in successful outcomes, optimise our advertisement strategy to reach similar prospects, and help minimise advertisements that may not be relevant to certain users. The Website may also contain social media plugins that enable interaction with these platforms. Where required under applicable law, we will obtain your consent before setting or using such cookies and similar technologies.

4. Your Choices and How to Manage Cookies

Consent banner. When you first visit the Website (and periodically thereafter, or when our cookie use changes), we present a cookie banner. Where required by law, we will set non- essential cookies only after you have given consent through a clear affirmative action. You may accept or decline non-essential cookie categories through the cookie banner. We do not use pre- ticked boxes or deceptive design ("dark patterns") to obtain consent, and declining non-essential cookies is as easy as accepting them.

Withdrawing consent. You may withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time through your browser settings. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew consent.

Browser controls. Most browsers let you view, manage, block, or delete cookies through their settings. You can usually find these controls in the "settings", "preferences", or "privacy" menu of your browser. Please note that if you block or delete strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Website may not function properly. Additionally, you can opt out of third-party tracking by visiting: Google Analytics Opt-out.

5. Third-Party Cookies and Links

Some cookies may be set by third parties that provide services to us, such as analytics providers. These third parties may process the information collected through their cookies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies, over which we have limited control. The Website may also contain links to, or embedded content from, third-party sites (for example, group-company or brand websites, social-media platforms, or video providers), which may set their own cookies. We are not responsible for the cookie practices of these third parties, and we encourage you to review their policies.

6. Legal Basis for Using Cookies

We rely on strictly necessary grounds for essential cookies, which are required for the Website to operate. For all other cookies, where the law requires it, we rely on your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.

7. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in legal requirements. The "Last Updated" date at the top indicates when it was last revised. Material changes will be notified through the Website or our cookie banner. Your continued use of the Website after changes take effect, and your cookie choices, will be handled in accordance with the updated Policy.
