Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember information about your visit and preferences. At florentavexia, we use various tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies, including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage mechanisms.

These technologies work together to create a more personalised experience on our financial education platform. When you browse through our courses on investment strategies or read our market analysis articles, cookies help us understand which content resonates most with our learners and how we can improve your educational journey.

Web Beacons are tiny invisible images embedded in our web pages and emails that help us track whether content has been viewed. Local Storage allows us to store larger amounts of data locally on your device, such as your progress through our financial literacy modules.

Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually. We use both types strategically to balance functionality with your privacy preferences.

Our tracking implementation serves multiple educational purposes across the florentavexia platform. We monitor course completion rates to identify where students might be struggling with complex financial concepts like derivatives trading or portfolio management theory. This data helps our content creators develop supplementary materials and improve explanations.

Learning Analytics: We track which sections of our courses you spend the most time on, which quizzes you find challenging, and how you progress through our structured learning paths. This information helps us create more effective educational sequences and identify areas where additional support materials might be beneficial.

Content Personalisation: Based on your interaction patterns, we customise the homepage to highlight relevant courses, suggest related articles from our financial blog, and recommend learning paths that align with your demonstrated interests and skill level.

Platform Optimisation: We analyse user flows to understand navigation patterns, identify potential usability issues, and optimise the overall learning experience. For example, if data shows users frequently abandon a particular lesson, we investigate whether the content needs restructuring or additional context.

Communication Preferences: Cookies help us remember how you prefer to receive updates about new courses, whether you've subscribed to our weekly market insights newsletter, and your timezone for scheduling live webinar notifications.

We also use tracking to maintain the integrity of our learning platform by detecting unusual patterns that might indicate account sharing or automated bot activity, ensuring a fair experience for all legitimate learners.

You have several options for controlling how cookies work on your device when using florentavexia. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie settings through their privacy or security preferences, typically found in the settings or tools menu.

Browser-Level Controls: In Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, you can block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete existing cookies. However, blocking essential cookies will prevent core functionality like logging into your account or maintaining your course progress.

Granular Control: Many browsers now offer site-specific cookie management, allowing you to block cookies from certain domains while permitting them from trusted educational platforms like florentavexia. This approach gives you precise control over your privacy preferences.

Private Browsing Modes: Using incognito or private browsing windows automatically blocks most tracking cookies and deletes session data when you close the window. This can be useful for accessing florentavexia from shared computers or when you prefer not to save your browsing session.

Browser Extensions: Privacy-focused extensions can provide additional cookie blocking capabilities, though some may interfere with legitimate educational functionality. We recommend testing these tools carefully to ensure they don't disrupt your learning experience.

Remember that disabling functional and analytics cookies may limit certain features like progress tracking, personalised course recommendations, and the ability to resume courses from where you left off across different devices.

Different types of cookies and stored data have varying retention periods based on their purpose and legal requirements. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain active for periods ranging from 30 days to 2 years, depending on their function.

Learning Progress Data: Information about your course completion, quiz scores, and certification achievements is retained indefinitely to maintain your educational records and allow you to access your accomplishments years later.

Analytics Data: Aggregated usage statistics are retained for up to 26 months to help us identify long-term trends in learning preferences and platform usage. Individual tracking data is typically anonymised after 14 months.

Preference Settings: Your personalisation choices, including dashboard layouts and communication preferences, are stored until you modify them or delete your account entirely.

Marketing Data: Information used for course recommendations and targeted educational content suggestions is refreshed regularly, with older preference data being replaced by more recent interaction patterns every 12 months.

You can request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting our support team. This includes cookie-based tracking information, though essential security and fraud prevention data may be retained longer as required by financial industry regulations.

Our platform also includes automated data minimisation processes that regularly review stored information and delete data that's no longer necessary for educational or legal purposes.
