Understanding how we use tracking technologies to improve your experience on vorenthasiq.com
Last Updated: March 2025At vorenthasiq, we believe you deserve transparency about the technologies we use on our website. This policy explains what cookies and similar tracking methods are, why we use them, and how you can control your preferences.
We use these technologies to make your visit smoother, remember your choices, and understand how people interact with our content. Nothing sinister – just practical tools that help us serve you better.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you visit websites. Think of them like breadcrumbs that help websites remember who you are and what you were doing. Some stick around for years, others disappear the moment you close your browser.
Beyond traditional cookies, we also use pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage technologies. They all serve similar purposes – tracking interactions, storing preferences, and helping us understand what works and what doesn't on our platform.
Types of Cookies We Use
1 Essential Cookies
These keep the site functional. Without them, basic features like navigation and secure access wouldn't work. We can't really give you an option to refuse these – they're necessary for the website to operate properly.
2 Functional Cookies
These remember your choices like language preferences or region settings. They make your experience more personalized and save you from having to set the same preferences every time you visit.
3 Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our content. Which pages get the most attention? Where do people spend their time? This data helps us improve the website and create better resources.
4 Marketing Cookies
These track your browsing activity across different websites to build a profile of your interests. We use them to show you relevant content and measure the effectiveness of our campaigns.
How We Use Tracking Technologies
Our use of cookies goes beyond just remembering login details. Here's what we actually do with the data:
- Track which educational resources get the most engagement so we can develop similar content
- Remember your progress through learning materials and program applications
- Analyse traffic patterns to identify peak usage times and optimize server performance
- Test different versions of pages to see which layouts and content structures work best
- Prevent fraudulent activity and maintain security across our platform
- Deliver relevant content recommendations based on your browsing history
- Measure how effective our outreach campaigns are at reaching potential clients
What About Third-Party Cookies?
Some cookies on our site aren't set by us. We integrate services from trusted partners for analytics, advertising, and functionality enhancements. These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they collect and use data.
We carefully vet these partners, but you should know that we don't control their tracking practices. If you're concerned about third-party cookies, you can block them through your browser settings or use privacy-focused browser extensions.
Cookie Data Retention
Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies vanish when you close your browser – they're temporary helpers. Persistent cookies stick around for a set period, which could be days, months, or even years depending on their purpose.
| Cookie Type | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Until browser closes | Maintain active session state |
| Preference Cookies | 1-12 months | Remember user settings |
| Analytics Cookies | 2 years | Track usage patterns |
| Marketing Cookies | 6-12 months | Deliver targeted content |
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control. Most browsers let you refuse cookies entirely or delete existing ones. But here's the catch – blocking all cookies will probably break parts of our website. Some features simply won't work without them.
Browser-Specific Instructions
- Chrome: Navigate to Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data. Choose your preferred level of cookie blocking.
- Firefox: Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. Select standard, strict, or custom tracking protection.
- Safari: Open Preferences > Privacy. You can block all cookies or just third-party ones.
- Edge: Head to Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data. Adjust blocking levels as needed.
- Mobile browsers: Cookie controls are usually found in the privacy or security section of your browser settings.
Beyond browser settings, you can use privacy tools like Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin, or Ghostery. These browser extensions give you granular control over which trackers can operate on the sites you visit.
What Happens When You Block Cookies?
Blocking cookies affects your experience in different ways. You might need to log in every time you visit. Your preferences won't be saved. Some interactive features might not work at all. Analytics cookies don't affect functionality, so blocking those is typically safe.
We've designed our website to degrade gracefully when cookies are blocked, but some features simply require them to function. It's about finding the balance between privacy and functionality that works for you.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes, regulations evolve, and our practices adapt. We update this cookie policy periodically to reflect those changes. When we make significant updates, we'll post a notice on our website and update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this policy occasionally to stay informed about how we're using cookies and protecting your privacy. If you have questions about specific tracking technologies we use, our team is happy to provide detailed explanations.
