Cookie Usage Policy

Understanding how we use tracking technologies at UltraDGStream to provide you with better financial education services.

Last updated: March 2025

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our financial education content. Think of them as digital bookmarks that make your experience smoother each time you return.

We started using cookies back in 2019 when we noticed people were having to re-enter their course preferences every single visit. That got frustrating fast. So we implemented a simple system to remember those choices – and honestly, it made a huge difference in how people engaged with our material.

Types of Tracking We Use

Essential Function Cookies

These keep the site working properly. When you log into your student dashboard or navigate between lessons, these cookies make sure everything functions as expected. Without them, basic features would break.

We can't disable these because they're tied directly to core functionality. They don't track your browsing habits – they just help the site remember you're logged in or which language you selected.

Performance Analytics

These help us understand which finance topics get the most attention and where people tend to drop off. If everyone's abandoning the budgeting module halfway through, we need to know that so we can improve it.

The data is aggregated – we see patterns, not individual behavior. Last year this helped us realize our cash flow lessons were too dense, so we broke them into shorter segments. Much better response after that.

Preference Storage

These remember settings like your preferred currency display (VND vs USD) or whether you want email updates about new courses. Saves you from adjusting those settings every time you visit.

Marketing and Outreach

These track whether you came from a search engine, social media, or another website. They also help us show relevant course recommendations based on what you've viewed before.

If you're reading about invoice management, we might suggest related content on payment terms or collections. It's about making your learning path more coherent rather than random.

Control Your Cookie Settings

You can decline all non-essential tracking cookies. Essential function cookies will remain active to keep the site operational.

How Long We Keep Cookie Data

Cookie Type Duration Purpose
Session cookies Until browser closes Maintain login state during your visit
Preference cookies 12 months Remember your settings between visits
Analytics cookies 24 months Track usage patterns for improvement
Marketing cookies 18 months Show relevant course suggestions

After these periods expire, the cookies automatically delete themselves. You can also manually clear them anytime through your browser settings.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Every modern browser gives you control over cookies. The exact steps vary slightly, but generally you'll find cookie settings under Privacy or Security preferences.

  • 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

You can block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or review them individually. Just know that blocking essential cookies will prevent parts of our site from working properly.

Third-Party Services

We use a few external services that place their own cookies. Google Analytics helps us understand traffic patterns. Our payment processor needs cookies to handle secure transactions. And our video platform (for recorded lessons) uses cookies to remember playback preferences.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. We've vetted them carefully, but you should review their policies too if you want the full picture of how your data moves around.

These third-party services are bound by their own data protection standards. We choose partners who take privacy seriously, but we can't control their practices directly.

Updates to This Policy

We update this policy when we add new features or change how we handle data. Any significant changes will be posted here with a new date at the top. We might also send an email notification if you're enrolled in courses.

Minor clarifications or formatting changes happen without announcement. But anything that affects how we collect or use data – you'll hear about that directly.
