Understanding how Flexultra Labs uses tracking technologies to enhance your experience and protect your data privacy
Effective Date: January 15, 2025What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about your visit. At Flexultra Labs, we use several types of tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies, including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage mechanisms.
These technologies serve various purposes — from keeping you logged in during your session to remembering your preferences when you return. They also help us understand which parts of our investment education content resonate most with our Irish audience and where we might need to improve our explanations of complex financial concepts.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep our website functioning properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access secure areas. We can't turn these off because they're necessary for basic site operation.
Performance Analytics
We track how visitors interact with our investment education content. This helps us identify which learning modules are most effective and where students typically struggle with financial concepts.
Functional Preferences
These remember your choices like currency display preferences (euros vs dollars), preferred chart types for market data, and your progress through our learning modules.
Marketing Insights
We use these to understand which investment topics interest you most, allowing us to suggest relevant educational content and improve our program offerings for Irish learners.
How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
Our tracking helps personalize your learning journey. For instance, if you frequently access content about portfolio diversification, we'll surface related materials about asset allocation and risk management that complement your interests.
We also use this data to optimize loading times for our financial calculators and ensure our market data feeds display correctly across different devices and browsers commonly used in Ireland.
Managing Your Browser Settings
You have complete control over how your browser handles cookies and tracking. Each browser offers different methods for managing these preferences, and the process has become much more user-friendly in recent years.
- Chrome Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies
- Firefox Options → Privacy and Security
- Safari Preferences → Privacy Tab
- Edge Settings → Site Permissions
- Opera Settings → Advanced → Privacy
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might affect some functionality on our site. You'll still be able to access our educational content, but features like progress tracking through our investment courses or personalized content recommendations won't work properly.
Data Retention and Storage Periods
Different types of tracking data have different lifespans based on their purpose and legal requirements. We don't keep information longer than necessary, and we regularly review our data retention practices.
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay longer but have expiration dates. We regularly clean out old data that's no longer useful for improving your experience or our services.
Third-Party Services and Partners
We work with several trusted partners to deliver our investment education platform. This includes analytics providers who help us understand user behavior, content delivery networks that ensure fast loading times across Ireland, and educational technology partners who power our interactive learning modules.
These partners may place their own cookies on your device, but they're bound by strict data processing agreements. We don't share personally identifiable information without your explicit consent, and all our partners meet European data protection standards.
You can usually find links to third-party privacy policies in our main privacy policy document, which gives you the full picture of how your data moves through our educational ecosystem.
Your Rights and Control Options
Under Irish and European law, you have significant control over your personal data. You can request to see what information we've collected about you, ask us to correct inaccuracies, or request deletion of your data entirely.
If you want to opt out of certain types of tracking while still accessing our educational content, that's absolutely possible. We've designed our platform so that core learning materials remain available even with strict privacy settings.
For specific requests about your data or questions about our tracking practices, you can contact our team directly. We typically respond to privacy inquiries within 48 hours and aim to fulfill data requests within the legally required timeframes.
