What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small data files stored on your device when you visit paitbilochivo.com. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember your preferences and understand how you navigate our economic learning platform. We also use similar tracking technologies like web beacons and local storage.

These technologies serve different purposes — some keep you logged in, others remember your preferred chart settings, and some help us understand which economic indicators resonate most with our Australian learners. It's worth noting that not all tracking is the same, and you have control over most of it.

Types of Tracking We Use

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

When you're studying complex economic indicators, personalization makes a real difference. Our tracking helps us remember that you prefer Australian housing data over international comparisons, or that you typically access our platform during evening hours when markets are closed.

We also use this information to identify common learning patterns. If many students struggle with understanding inflation calculations, we can create additional resources or adjust our teaching approach. Your anonymized usage data helps improve the experience for everyone in our learning community.

For practical examples — if you consistently access our RBA cash rate analysis, we might suggest related content about Australian monetary policy. Or if you spend significant time on our unemployment statistics module, we could recommend our upcoming labor market trends course.

Managing Your Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies directly through their settings. However, blocking all cookies might affect your experience on paitbilochivo.com — you might need to re-login frequently or lose your personalized dashboard configurations.

Data Retention and Your Control

We don't keep tracking data indefinitely. Most analytics information is aggregated and anonymized after 26 months, while personalization cookies expire after 12 months of inactivity. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser completely.

You can request deletion of your specific tracking history by contacting our support team. We'll remove your personalized data within 30 days, though this means losing any customized dashboard settings or progress tracking you've built up over time.

Keep in mind that even with cookies disabled, we still collect some basic information for security and legal compliance — like IP addresses for fraud prevention and basic site functionality logs. This is standard practice for any educational platform handling user accounts and progress data.
