1. Public Access & Zero Mandatory Registration
Azad Cafe provides unrestricted public access to all interactive maps, state and district profiles, datasets, and calculators without requiring account creation. Browsing public public-interest data does not require personal information.
2. Shared Account System (janubhai.space)
If you choose to authenticate to save personal views, create private research collections, or configure watchlist threshold alerts, authentication is serviced via the unified JanuBhai Consultancy identity hub (janubhai.space) powered by Firebase Authentication. We collect only your email address and authentication credentials necessary to maintain your session.
3. Data Storage & Privacy Controls
Unauthenticated user preferences and saved views are stored locally within your browser's localStorage. Authenticated research collections are saved in Cloud Firestore associated strictly with your user identifier. Your private collections and notes are never published publicly without your explicit directive.
4. Analytics & Advertising
We may utilize privacy-respecting telemetry (PostHog) to understand aggregate usage trends and improve atlas navigation. Advertisement placements delivered via Google AdSense adhere to Google publisher policies and standard consent management frameworks.
