Cookie Policy
At solivynaro, we believe in transparency. This policy explains how we use tracking technologies on solivynaro.world to improve your experience while respecting your privacy.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our content, and provide a more personalized experience as you explore savings strategies and financial education resources.
What Are Cookies and How Do They Work?
Think of cookies as helpful notes your browser keeps. When you visit solivynaro.world, our server sends these small files to your device. Your browser stores them and sends relevant information back during future visits.
These files typically contain a unique identifier, the website name, and some numbers and letters. They can't access other files on your device or spread viruses. Most expire after a set time, though some remain until you delete them manually.
Here's what makes them useful: they remember if you've visited before, keep track of your preferences, and help us understand which content resonates with our South African audience looking to improve their financial literacy.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use different categories of tracking technologies, each serving a specific purpose. Let me walk you through what we've implemented and why.
Essential Cookies
These are the foundation of our website functionality. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages, access secure areas, or submit forms. They're active only during your session and disappear when you close your browser. We don't need permission to use these because they're necessary for the site to work properly.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences. If you've selected specific settings or customized your dashboard, functional cookies ensure those preferences stick around for your next visit. They make your experience smoother by not requiring you to reconfigure things every single time.
Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our financial education content. They collect anonymous data about which pages you view, how long you stay, and where you click. This information helps us identify popular resources and improve areas that might be confusing. The data is aggregated, so we never track you as an individual.
Marketing Cookies
These track your browsing activity to show you relevant educational opportunities and resources. They help us understand which topics interest you most, whether that's retirement planning, emergency fund strategies, or debt management. We use this to share content that matches your financial education journey.
- Pages you visit most frequently on our savings strategies resources
- Time spent reading different educational articles
- Which webinar topics generate the most interest
- Learning program pages that lead to contact form submissions
- Returning visitor patterns to measure content effectiveness
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
Not all cookies come directly from us. Here's the difference between the two types you'll encounter:
First-Party Cookies
These originate from solivynaro.world itself. We set them, we control them, and we use the data they collect to improve your experience on our platform. They remember your language preferences, keep you logged in, and track your progress through our educational content.
Third-Party Cookies
Sometimes external services we integrate set their own cookies. For instance, if we embed a video or use analytics tools, those providers might place cookies on your device. We carefully select partners who respect privacy, but you should know these third parties have their own policies governing how they handle your data.
| Cookie Type | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session ID | solivynaro (First-Party) | Maintains your active session and navigation state | Session only |
| User Preferences | solivynaro (First-Party) | Stores your customization choices and settings | 12 months |
| Analytics Tracking | Third-Party Service | Collects anonymous usage statistics and patterns | 24 months |
| Content Interaction | solivynaro (First-Party) | Tracks educational content engagement and progress | 6 months |
| Marketing Attribution | Third-Party Service | Measures campaign effectiveness and referral sources | 90 days |
Your Control Over Cookies
You're in charge. While cookies improve functionality, you can manage or disable them through your browser settings. Just be aware that blocking certain cookies might limit some features on solivynaro.world.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Every major browser gives you tools to view, manage, and delete cookies. You can usually find these options in your privacy or security settings. Most browsers let you block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or get notified before a cookie is set.
If you're using our site from different devices, you'll need to adjust settings on each one separately. Browser settings don't sync across your phone, tablet, and computer automatically.
Keep in mind that disabling cookies affects more than just solivynaro.world. Many websites rely on them for basic functionality, so you might notice changes across the web.
How Long We Keep Cookie Data
Different cookies serve different purposes, so they stick around for varying lengths of time. Session cookies vanish when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their expiration date or until you manually delete them.
- Session cookies expire immediately when you end your browsing session
- Preference cookies typically last between 6 and 12 months
- Analytics cookies might persist for up to 24 months to track long-term trends
- Marketing cookies usually expire within 90 days, though some extend to 12 months
- Security cookies remain active only during your visit to protect your connection
We regularly review our cookie retention periods to ensure we're not holding onto data longer than necessary. When cookies expire, your browser automatically removes them without any action needed from you.
Regular Policy Updates
Technology changes, regulations evolve, and we adapt our practices accordingly. We'll update this policy when we implement new tracking technologies or modify how we use existing ones. Significant changes will be highlighted on our website, and we'll update the revision date at the top of this page.
Cookies on Mobile Devices
Mobile browsers handle cookies similarly to desktop versions, though the interface looks different. You'll find cookie settings in your mobile browser's menu, usually under privacy or advanced settings.
If you access solivynaro.world through our mobile-optimized site, the same types of cookies apply. The tracking functions remain consistent whether you're on a phone, tablet, or computer.
Mobile apps work differently than mobile websites. If we develop a dedicated app in the future, we'll provide separate information about how it handles data and tracking technologies specific to mobile applications.
Third-Party Services We Work With
We partner with reputable services to provide analytics, content delivery, and educational resources. These partners may set their own cookies when you interact with embedded content or features on our site.
For example, if we embed an educational video, the video platform might place cookies to remember your playback preferences or track viewing statistics. We choose partners carefully based on their privacy practices and commitment to data protection.
You can learn more about how these third parties use cookies by reviewing their individual privacy policies. We don't control their practices, but we select partners who align with our values around transparency and user privacy.
