2. What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, session state, or interactions. Cookies can be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (stored for a longer period).

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as pixel tags (small code snippets that register a page view or conversion event) and local storage (browser storage used to remember preferences). For simplicity, this policy refers to these collectively as “cookies”.

Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties that provide services on our behalf (third-party cookies), such as analytics or advertising platforms.

3. Why we use cookies

We use cookies for three main purposes:

• To operate the website: keep basic site functions working, remember consent choices, and support security features.
• To understand usage: measure which pages are used and how content performs so we can improve the learning portal experience.
• To measure advertising: attribute conversions, limit repeated ads, and understand which messages lead users to explore programs and register interest.

We do not use cookies to make employment or financial promises, and our educational services do not guarantee employment, promotions, certifications, business success, or financial outcomes.

4. Cookie categories we use

4.1 Essential cookies (always active)

Essential cookies are required for the site to function and for you to use key features (such as remembering your cookie preferences). These cookies do not require consent under EU rules when used strictly for necessary purposes.

Examples include: maintaining session continuity, security protections, and storing your cookie preferences.

4.2 Analytics cookies (consent required)

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website (for example, which pages are visited most often, how long people stay, and where they came from). We use these insights to improve the clarity of program information, registration journeys, and learning resources.

When analytics cookies are enabled, we may use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) with IP anonymization where available. The typical analytics data retention period is 14 months in the analytics platform settings.

4.3 Marketing cookies (consent required)

Marketing cookies support advertising measurement and relevant promotions. They may be used to understand whether a user registered interest after seeing an ad, to build audiences for remarketing, and to reduce repeated ads.

When marketing cookies are enabled, we may use cookies related to Google Ads and Meta advertising tools (such as the Meta Pixel and conversion measurement). Marketing cookies do not change the educational scope of our services and are not used to make guarantees about outcomes.

5. Cookie table

The table below lists common cookies used on this site. Actual cookies may vary depending on your browser settings and which preferences you choose in our cookie banner.

Note: Some third-party tools may use additional cookies or identifiers depending on configuration. Where required, we ask for your consent before enabling analytics or marketing cookies.

6. Third-party providers

Depending on your cookie preferences, we may use the following providers:

• Google LLC (Google Analytics 4, Google Ads measurement). Learn more: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Meta Platforms, Inc. (advertising measurement and audiences). Learn more: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/
• Cloudflare (website delivery and security features). Learn more: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes. They process data as service providers to help us operate and improve the website and to measure advertising (only where you consent).

7. How to manage cookies

You can manage cookies in several ways:

• Cookie preferences on this site: Use the “Manage cookie preferences” link in the footer to open the cookie banner and adjust your choices.
• Browser settings: Most browsers allow you to delete cookies and block future cookies. Blocking essential cookies may impact site functionality.
• Provider controls: You can use third-party opt-out tools, including:
  • Google Analytics opt-out: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
  • Google Ads settings: https://adssettings.google.com
  • Meta ad preferences: https://www.facebook.com/adpreferences
  • Your Online Choices (EU): https://www.youronlinechoices.eu

If you reject analytics or marketing cookies, we will not load those categories from this site’s consent controls. If you previously accepted and then withdraw consent, the website will update your preference and may remove relevant cookies where possible.

8. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, our service providers, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date above and may provide an additional notice on the website.
