What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They're basically little notes that help websites remember who you are and what you've done on their site. Some cookies last just for your current session, while others stick around for weeks or months.

Most websites use cookies these days. They're not inherently bad — in fact, many make your browsing experience better. But you should know what's being tracked and have control over it.

Types of Tracking We Use

Why We Use Tracking Technologies

We track data for a few specific reasons. First, we need to understand which educational resources are actually helpful so we can create more of what works. If everyone bounces off a particular page within seconds, that tells us something needs to change.

Second, we want to personalize your experience. If you've shown interest in budget planning topics, we might highlight our upcoming budget strategy workshops. It's about making your time here more relevant to your actual needs.

And honestly, we also use some marketing cookies to reach people who might benefit from our education programs. We're a business operating in the Vietnam market, and we need to connect with potential students somehow.

How Long We Keep Cookie Data

Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear the moment you close your browser. Others might last a few days, weeks, or even up to two years depending on their purpose.

Essential cookies typically last for your current session. Analytics cookies might stick around for up to 24 months so we can track long-term trends. Marketing cookies usually expire after 90 days, though some advertising platforms may set longer periods.

You can delete all cookies manually through your browser settings whenever you want. This resets everything, though you'll lose any saved preferences too.

Managing Your Preferences

You have several options for controlling cookies. The simplest way is to click the "Decline All Tracking" button at the top of this page. That stops everything except essential cookies immediately.

You can also configure your browser to block certain types of cookies or reject all cookies entirely. Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might break some website features.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our site come from external services we use. For example, if we embed a video from a hosting platform, that platform might set its own cookies. We don't control those third-party cookies directly.

We try to be selective about which external services we integrate. But you should know that clicking on embedded content or external links might result in additional tracking by those third parties under their own privacy policies.

Updates to This Policy

We update this policy occasionally when we change how we use cookies or when regulations require it. The "Last Updated" date at the top shows when we last made changes.

If we make significant changes to how we collect or use data, we'll notify you through a banner on the website or via email if you're enrolled in our programs.
