Cookie & Data Usage Policy
Understanding how we collect and use information on colvendraflestian.com
What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember your preferences and activity. Beyond traditional cookies, we also use similar technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage to enhance your browsing experience.
These technologies serve different purposes — some are absolutely necessary for the site to work properly, while others help us understand how visitors use our platform or remember your personal preferences between visits.
Types of Tracking We Use
How Cookies Enhance Your Experience
When you visit our writing platform, cookies work behind the scenes to make your experience smoother. For instance, if you're working through our creative writing exercises, functional cookies remember where you left off so you can pick up exactly where you stopped.
Analytics cookies help us see which writing techniques resonate most with our community. This information guides us in developing new content — if we notice many writers struggling with dialogue, we'll create more resources around that topic.
Marketing cookies ensure the course recommendations you see are actually relevant to your interests. Rather than showing random promotions, they help us present workshops and programs that align with your writing goals and previous engagement.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have full control over cookie usage on our website. The button above allows you to reject all non-essential cookies instantly. Essential cookies will still function to ensure the website works properly, but all tracking, analytics, and marketing cookies will be removed from your browser.
Your browser also provides built-in tools to manage cookies. You can view, delete, or block cookies through your browser settings. Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might affect certain website features or require you to re-enter information more frequently.
Data Retention and Your Rights
Different types of cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies can remain for weeks or months, depending on their specific purpose. Essential cookies typically last only for your current session, while preference cookies might persist for up to a year.
You can request information about what data we've collected about you or ask us to delete your personal information entirely. We're committed to transparency about our data practices and will respond to such requests within 30 days. Contact us using the information below if you'd like to exercise these rights.
