Cookie & Data Usage Policy
Last Updated: March 2025
How sytheraquon.com Uses Cookies
When you visit our financial education platform, we collect certain information through various tracking technologies to enhance your learning experience. These digital tools help us understand how you interact with our entrepreneurial resources and allow us to provide personalized content that matches your financial learning goals.
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you browse our website. Think of them as tiny notebooks that remember your preferences, login status, and learning progress. We use both first-party cookies (created by sytheraquon.com) and third-party cookies (from our educational partners and analytics providers) to deliver the best possible experience.
We believe in transparency about data collection. This policy explains exactly what information we gather, how we use it, and gives you complete control over your privacy preferences.
Types of Cookies We Deploy
Different cookies serve different purposes on our platform. Here's what each category does and why it matters for your experience:
Essential Functionality
These cookies keep our platform working properly. They remember your login status, language preferences, and ensure security features function correctly. Without these, you couldn't access your learning dashboard or maintain your session.
Learning Analytics
We track how students engage with different financial topics to improve our curriculum. This includes which lessons are most helpful, where people tend to struggle, and what learning paths lead to better outcomes.
Performance Monitoring
These help us identify technical issues and optimize loading times. We monitor which pages load slowly, where errors occur, and how to make the platform more responsive across different devices and browsers.
Content Personalization
Based on your learning history and interests, we customize course recommendations and resource suggestions. This makes your educational journey more relevant to your specific financial goals and experience level.

Manage Your Cookie Preferences
You have complete control over non-essential cookies on our platform. Essential cookies that keep the site functioning cannot be disabled, but you can opt out of all tracking and analytics cookies.
Note: Essential cookies for site functionality will remain active regardless of your choice.
Browser-Based Cookie Management
Beyond our platform controls, you can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Each browser handles this differently, so here's how to adjust settings in the most popular ones:
Google Chrome
Go to Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data. From here you can block all cookies, allow only first-party cookies, or create custom rules for specific websites.
Safari
Open Safari → Preferences → Privacy tab. Choose your cookie policy: block all, allow from current website only, or allow from websites you visit. Safari also has intelligent tracking prevention built-in.
Firefox
Menu → Options → Privacy & Security. Firefox offers Enhanced Tracking Protection with standard, strict, or custom settings. You can also manually manage cookies and site data.
Microsoft Edge
Settings → Site Permissions → Cookies and site data. Edge provides options to block third-party cookies, clear cookies when you close the browser, and manage exceptions.
Data Retention and Your Rights
We don't keep cookie data forever. Different types of information have different retention periods based on their purpose and legal requirements. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while preference cookies might stick around for several months to maintain your customized experience.
You have the right to request a copy of all data we've collected about you, ask us to delete your information, or correct any inaccuracies. Since we're based in Australia, we follow both local privacy laws and international best practices for data protection.
If you delete our cookies, you'll lose your personalized settings and learning progress tracking. Your account data remains safe on our servers, but you'll need to log in again and reset your preferences. We recommend using our preference center instead of clearing cookies if you just want to adjust what we track.
Third-Party Services and Partners
Some features on our platform rely on third-party services that may also set their own cookies. For example, if we embed educational videos from external providers or use analytics services to understand user behavior, these partners might collect their own data according to their privacy policies.
We carefully vet all third-party partners to ensure they meet our privacy standards, but we recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies if you want complete information about their data practices. Common partners include educational content providers, payment processors, and analytics platforms that help us improve our services.
