Cookies & Cache Policy

This policy explains how vtu-easy.com uses cookies, cache storage, and related technologies to operate the website, serve advertisements, and improve your experience.

Last updated: June 2026

Cache Storage

VTU-Easy uses browser cache storage to improve page loading speed and performance. When you visit our website, your browser may store certain files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images) locally on your device so that subsequent visits load faster.

Important: Cached data does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information. It is purely a performance mechanism and is stored only on your own device.
What is cached?
  • Static assets — stylesheets, scripts, fonts, and images
  • Page structure and layout files for faster rendering
  • Your theme preference (dark/light mode) via localStorage
  • Background image selection (if set by you)

You can clear cached data at any time through your browser settings under "Clear browsing data" or "Clear site data."

Advertising Cookies — Google AdSense

VTU-Easy uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to serve ads that are relevant to you based on your browsing activity.

Why ads? VTU-Easy is a completely free platform. Advertising revenue through Google AdSense is how we cover hosting costs and continue providing free resources to thousands of VTU students.
What Google AdSense cookies do:
  • Track your browsing behaviour across websites to build an interest profile
  • Display ads that are more relevant to your interests (interest-based advertising)
  • Limit the number of times you see the same ad
  • Measure ad performance and click-through rates
  • Prevent fraudulent ad clicks
