Cookie Policy

Version 2026-09-06 · Effective September 6, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains the small amounts of data we store in your browser, why each one is needed, and how you can change your choice at any time.

1. Strictly necessary — always on

These are required to deliver a service you asked for, so they are set without consent and cannot be switched off. Most are first-party and expire when your session ends or shortly after.

  • Sign-in session: keeps you signed in securely and links your progress, purchases, and certificates to your account. Without it the platform cannot work.
  • Security and abuse prevention: short-lived records used for rate limiting sign-in, sign-up, password reset, and support requests.
  • Your cookie choice: we store your accept or reject decision so we do not ask again on every visit.
  • Learning preferences stored in your browser, such as your place in a lesson and reading-mode setting.

2. Optional — analytics and product measurement

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which courses and lessons are used, where learners get stuck, and whether pages are performing. These are only set if you accept them, and rejecting them does not limit any part of the platform.

3. What we do not do

  • No advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies.
  • No sale or sharing of your browsing behaviour with data brokers.
  • No cookies used to profile you for automated decisions about your credentials.

4. Payments

Checkout is handled by our payment processor on their own pages. They set their own strictly necessary cookies to complete and secure the transaction, described in their cookie notice.

5. Changing your choice

Use the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of any page to accept or reject optional cookies at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though blocking the strictly necessary ones will sign you out and prevent progress from being saved.

6. Contact
