Cookie Policy
Understanding how bryneloxari uses tracking technologies to enhance your experience
At bryneloxari, we believe in being upfront about how we collect and use information when you visit our website. This policy explains our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies on bryneloxari.com.
We updated this policy in March 2025 to provide clearer explanations and give you better control over your preferences. Think of this as your guide to understanding what happens behind the scenes when you browse our financial planning resources.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They're basically tiny memory aids that help websites remember things about you—like your language preference or what you had in your shopping cart.
We use both session cookies (which disappear when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stick around for a while). Some cookies come from us directly, while others come from third-party services we use to run the site smoothly.
How bryneloxari Uses These Technologies
We're not in the business of tracking you for the sake of it. Every cookie we use serves a specific purpose in making your experience better. Here's what we actually do with them:
- Remember your preferences so you don't have to reset them every time you visit
- Keep you logged in as you navigate between different pages
- Understand which content resonates with visitors so we can create more of what helps
- Identify technical issues before they affect your experience
- Measure how people find us so we can focus our outreach efforts
- Prevent fraudulent activity and keep your information secure
The Different Types We Use
Not all cookies do the same thing. We've broken ours down into categories so you can understand what each type does.
Essential Cookies
These are the absolute necessities. Without them, basic functions like navigating pages or accessing secure areas simply won't work. You can't opt out of these because they're required for the site to function—but they don't track your browsing behaviour elsewhere.
Functional Cookies
These remember choices you make to give you a more personalized experience. Things like your preferred location, language settings, or customized content displays. The site works without them, but you'll have a better time with them enabled.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how people interact with our site. Which pages get the most traffic? Where do people spend the most time? This information helps us improve our content and navigation. All data is aggregated and anonymized—we're looking at patterns, not tracking individuals.
Marketing Cookies
These track your visit across different websites to build a profile of your interests. We use them sparingly and only with your consent. They help us show you relevant content and understand which marketing channels bring people to our financial planning resources.
A Word About Third Parties
Some cookies on our site come from external services we use—things like analytics platforms or embedded content. These third parties have their own privacy policies, and while we choose partners carefully, we can't control what they do with the data they collect. We recommend reviewing their policies if you want the full picture.
Taking Control of Your Cookies
You're not stuck with our default settings. Here's how you can manage what cookies do on your device:
- Most browsers let you view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings menu. Look for "Privacy" or "Security" options in your browser preferences.
- You can set your browser to block all cookies, but this might break some functionality on websites you visit. Essential features may stop working properly.
- Many browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting that sends a signal to websites asking them not to track you. We respect this preference where possible.
- You can delete existing cookies at any time through your browser settings. Just know that this will log you out of websites and reset your preferences.
- For mobile devices, check your operating system's privacy settings. Both iOS and Android have built-in controls for tracking and cookies.
How Long We Keep Different Cookies
Different cookies have different lifespans depending on what they do. Here's a breakdown of our retention periods:
| Cookie Type | Typical Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Until browser closes | Maintain your session as you navigate the site |
| Preference Cookies | 12 months | Remember your settings and choices |
| Analytics Cookies | 24 months | Track usage patterns and site improvements |
| Marketing Cookies | 12 months | Deliver relevant content and measure campaigns |
| Security Cookies | Session-based | Protect against fraudulent activity |
Changes to This Policy
Technology evolves, and so does how we use it. We update this policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll post a notice on our website and update the date at the bottom of this page.
Checking back occasionally is a good idea if you want to stay informed about how we handle cookies. We don't make changes frivolously—only when there's a genuine reason to update our approach.
Questions or Concerns?
We know cookie policies can feel overwhelming. If something isn't clear or you have specific questions about how we use tracking technologies, we're here to help.
