Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 2025
At Tritech Tera, we believe in being upfront about how we collect and use data. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use on tritechtera.info and why they matter for your experience. We're not fans of jargon, so we've tried to keep this straightforward.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help the site remember things about your visit. Some cookies disappear when you close your browser (we call those session cookies), while others stick around for a while (persistent cookies).
Beyond cookies, we might use similar technologies like web beacons, pixels, or local storage. They all serve similar purposes – helping us understand how people interact with our platform so we can make it better.
How We Use These Technologies
We don't collect data just for the sake of it. Every piece of information we gather serves a specific purpose in making tritechtera.info work better for you.
Essential Operations
These keep the site functioning. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages, access secure areas, or use basic features. They're non-negotiable for the platform to work.
Functionality Features
These remember your preferences – things like language settings or whether you've dismissed certain notices. They make your experience smoother by not asking you the same questions repeatedly.
Performance Tracking
We use these to see which pages people visit most, where they spend time, and where they encounter problems. It's how we figure out what's working and what needs improvement.
Content Personalization
These help us show you educational content that matches your interests and investment learning journey. If you've been reading about portfolio diversification, we might highlight related topics.
Specific Technologies We Use
Here's what actually happens when you visit our site:
- Session Management: We track your login status and course progress so you don't lose your place when navigating between lessons.
- Analytics Tools: We measure site traffic, popular content, and user flow patterns. This shows us if our educational materials are actually helpful or if we need to rethink our approach.
- Preference Storage: Your choices about notifications, display settings, and content filters get saved so you don't have to reconfigure things every time you visit.
- Security Monitoring: We watch for suspicious activity and protect against unauthorized access attempts. It's boring but necessary.
- Content Delivery: We optimize how quickly pages load based on your location and device type. Nobody likes waiting around for content to appear.
Real Examples of How This Helps
Let's get concrete. When you're working through our investing steps program, cookies remember which modules you've completed. If you return three days later, you don't have to start from scratch – you pick up right where you left off.
If you spend a lot of time on our risk assessment materials, we might suggest related content about portfolio allocation. Not because we're trying to be creepy, but because those topics naturally connect and you might find them useful.
When we notice that most people abandon a particular page after 15 seconds, that tells us something's wrong with that content. Maybe it's confusing, maybe it's irrelevant – either way, we need to fix it.
How Long We Keep This Data
Session Data: Deleted when you close your browser. These are temporary by nature.
Functional Preferences: Typically stored for 12 months unless you clear them manually.
Analytics Information: Aggregated data may be retained for up to 26 months to spot long-term trends in how people use the platform.
Security Logs: Kept for 90 days for monitoring and protection purposes.
We regularly review what we're storing and delete anything that's no longer serving a purpose. There's no point hoarding old data that doesn't help us improve the platform.
Your Control Options
You're not stuck with our default settings. You can manage, limit, or block cookies through your browser controls. Just be aware that disabling certain cookies might affect how well the site works for you.
Browser-Specific Instructions
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
- Opera: Settings → Privacy & security → Cookies
Most browsers let you block third-party cookies while keeping first-party ones active. That's usually a good balance between privacy and functionality.
Third-Party Services
We work with a few external providers who help us run the platform. These might include analytics services, content delivery networks, or educational tools. Each of these partners may use their own tracking technologies according to their privacy policies.
We try to minimize how many third parties we involve, but some are necessary for providing the full range of educational resources. When possible, we configure these services to respect your privacy preferences.
Updates to This Policy
We'll update this page if we make significant changes to how we use tracking technologies. The date at the top shows when we last revised it. If we introduce new tracking methods, we'll update this policy to reflect that.
We won't make major changes without letting you know, but minor clarifications or updates to browser instructions might happen without notification.
