Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 2025
This policy explains how carionexvia uses tracking technologies on carionexvia.com. We're being upfront about what we track, why we do it, and how you can manage your preferences. Nothing complicated—just straightforward information about the technologies that help us serve you better.
What Tracking Technologies Are
When you visit our website, small data files get stored on your device. These aren't harmful. They're text files that help us recognize you when you return and remember your preferences.
Think of them as digital bookmarks. When you come back to carionexvia.com, these files tell us you've been here before. They help us load your saved settings and provide a smoother experience overall.
We use several types of tracking methods:
- Browser storage files that remember your preferences
- Session identifiers that keep you logged in
- Analytics trackers that show us how people use our budget planning tools
- Marketing pixels that help us understand which content resonates
Types We Use and Why
Essential Operations
These keep the site functioning. When you navigate between pages or access your saved budgets, these files make sure everything works smoothly. Without them, basic features would break.
Functionality Enhancement
Remember when you set your currency preference to AUD? That's these working. They store your choices so you don't have to set them every single time you visit.
Performance Tracking
We track which budget templates get used most often and where people spend their time. This data helps us improve features that matter and fix things that don't work well.
Marketing Measurement
When you see our content around the web, these help us understand if it's reaching the right people. They also prevent you from seeing the same ad seventeen times in one day.
How They Improve Your Experience
Let's get specific about what this tracking actually does for you.
Personalized Budget Tools
When you're building a household budget and you close your browser halfway through, we save your progress. Next time you visit, your work is still there. That's tracking technology doing exactly what it should.
Learning Your Patterns
If you always start with the income section and work your way down, we'll notice. Over time, our interface adapts slightly to match how you prefer to work. Small adjustments that make things feel more intuitive.
Security Monitoring
These files help us spot unusual activity. If someone tries to access your account from three different countries in an hour, we'll know something's wrong and can act quickly.
Real example: In January 2025, we noticed users were abandoning the expense categorization tool at a specific step. Tracking data showed us exactly where the confusion happened. We redesigned that section, and completion rates improved significantly.
Data Retention Practices
We don't keep this data forever. Different types have different lifespans based on their purpose.
| Type | Duration | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Session files | Until you close browser | Temporary function only |
| Preference storage | 12 months | Remember your settings |
| Analytics data | 24 months | Track long-term patterns |
| Marketing trackers | 6 months | Measure campaign effectiveness |
After these periods expire, the data either gets deleted automatically or becomes anonymized to the point where it can't identify you specifically.
Your Control Options
You're not stuck with our choices. Here's how to take control of what gets tracked.
Browser-Level Management
Every modern browser lets you block or delete tracking files. The exact steps vary, but the option is always there. Look for "Privacy" or "Settings" in your browser menu.
What Happens When You Block Everything
You can absolutely block all tracking. But here's what that means practically:
- You'll stay logged in only as long as your browser window remains open
- Your currency preference resets to default every visit
- Saved budget templates won't appear when you return
- We can't remember which sections you've already read in our learning materials
The site still works. Just less conveniently.
Third-Party Trackers
Some tracking on our site comes from external services we use. When you watch an embedded video tutorial or see social sharing buttons, those companies may set their own trackers.
We're selective about which third parties we work with. Currently, we use analytics providers to measure site performance and educational content delivery platforms for our budget planning courses.
These partners have their own privacy policies. We require them to protect your data, but they operate independently of us. If you want details about their specific practices, check their documentation directly.
Mobile App Considerations
If you use our mobile app (planned for late 2025), different tracking technologies apply. Mobile identifiers work differently than browser files, and the app will have its own privacy settings you can adjust.
We'll update this policy when the app launches. For now, this document covers only what happens on carionexvia.com through your web browser.
Changes to This Policy
We review this policy twice a year and update it when our practices change. The "last updated" date at the top tells you when we made the most recent changes.
If we make significant changes—like adding new types of tracking or extending retention periods—we'll notify you through email and a banner on the site. Small clarifications or formatting updates happen without announcement.
Questions About Our Tracking?
This policy covers the essentials, but you might have specific questions about how tracking works for your situation. We're happy to explain further.
