Cookie & Data Usage Policy

What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about your visit. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help us understand how you navigate through our financial education platform. At Syntixa Mentora, we use various tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies to create a more personalized and effective learning environment.

These technologies include web beacons (tiny invisible images), local storage mechanisms, and session identifiers. Each serves a specific purpose in improving your experience on syntixamentora.com. We believe in transparency about how these tools work and why we use them to help you master financial concepts and ratio analysis.

Types of Tracking Technologies We Use

How We Use Your Data

Data Retention and Your Control

We retain different types of data for varying periods based on their purpose and legal requirements. Essential cookies typically last for your browser session, while preference cookies may remain for up to two years to maintain your customized experience. Learning progress data is kept for the duration of your account plus an additional year to allow for course completion and certificate retrieval.

You have significant control over these tracking technologies. Most modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies through their settings menu. However, please note that disabling certain cookies may limit your ability to access some features of our financial education platform, particularly those related to progress tracking and personalized content delivery.

Managing Your Preferences

Your browser provides several options for managing cookies and tracking technologies. In Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, you can access cookie settings through the privacy or security sections of your browser preferences. You can choose to block all cookies, allow only first-party cookies, or selectively approve cookies from trusted sites like syntixamentora.com.

For mobile devices, similar controls are available in your device's browser settings or through the main device privacy settings. Some operating systems also provide global tracking protection features that can limit cross-site tracking while still allowing essential functionality on educational platforms.

Third-Party Services and Integrations

Syntixa Mentora integrates with select third-party services to enhance your educational experience. These may include analytics providers that help us understand learning patterns, content delivery networks that ensure fast page loading, and communication tools that facilitate student-instructor interactions. Each of these services has its own privacy policy and cookie usage practices.

We carefully vet all third-party integrations to ensure they align with our commitment to student privacy and data protection. When possible, we configure these services to minimize data collection and use anonymized information. You can learn more about specific third-party services and their privacy practices by reviewing their individual policies, which we link to in our main privacy policy document.

Updates and Changes

This cookie policy is reviewed regularly to ensure it accurately reflects our current practices and remains compliant with evolving privacy regulations. We update this policy whenever we introduce new tracking technologies, change our data handling practices, or modify our third-party integrations that affect your privacy.

When significant changes occur, we'll notify active users through email or prominent notices on the platform. Minor updates, such as clarifications or formatting improvements, may be made without individual notification, but the "Last Updated" date below will always reflect the most recent revision.
