Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 2025We're being straight with you. brelithovex uses cookies and similar tracking bits on our platform. Not because everyone does it, but because they actually help us make your experience better when you're learning about financial analysis.
This document explains what we track, why we do it, and how you can manage it all. We've kept the legal jargon to a minimum — you deserve to understand what's happening without needing a law degree.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Think of cookies as tiny notes that websites leave on your device. When you visit brelithovex.com, we might store small text files that remember things about your visit. Maybe you were halfway through a lesson on balance sheet analysis, or you prefer viewing our charts in dark mode.
These files sit in your browser and help us recognize you when you come back. They don't contain your personal secrets or download anything harmful — they're just simple text snippets with basic information.
Quick fact: Most cookies expire after a set time. Some disappear when you close your browser, others stick around longer to remember your preferences across multiple visits.
Types of Tracking We Use
We're not trying to be mysterious about this. Here's what actually happens when you use our site.
Essential Cookies
These are the non-negotiables. Without them, our platform basically stops working properly. They handle things like keeping you logged in, remembering what's in your learning cart, and making sure your session doesn't randomly disconnect.
You can't really opt out of these because they're tied to basic functionality. If you block them, parts of the site just won't work.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices. Language preferences, display settings, which modules you've completed — that sort of thing. They make your experience smoother by not asking you the same questions every time you visit.
We could run without these, but honestly, you'd find it pretty annoying to reset everything each session.
Analytics Cookies
Here's where we track how people actually use the site. Which lessons get the most attention? Where do students tend to get stuck? What time of day sees the highest activity?
This information helps us figure out what's working and what needs improvement. We look at aggregate patterns, not individual behavior tracking.
Marketing Cookies
These track which of our course offerings you've looked at and help us show you relevant information about programs that might interest you. If you browsed our advanced financial modeling content, we might mention upcoming courses in that area.
They also help us measure whether our outreach efforts actually connect with people who want to learn.
What We're Actually Tracking
Let's get specific about the data points we collect through these tracking methods:
- Pages you visit and how long you spend on them
- Which educational resources you download or bookmark
- Progress through our learning modules and completion rates
- Search terms you use within our site
- Device type and browser you're using
- General location (city level, not your exact address)
- How you found us — search engine, direct visit, or referral
- Interactions with videos, quizzes, and interactive content
We don't sell this data to third parties. It stays with us and gets used to improve how we teach financial analysis fundamentals. Sometimes we share anonymized statistics with educational partners, but nothing that identifies you personally.
Why This Matters for Your Learning
You might be thinking — okay, but what's in it for me? Fair question.
Personalized Learning Path
When we know which topics you've covered and where you struggled, we can suggest what to tackle next. If you breezed through ratio analysis but spent extra time on cash flow statements, that tells us something useful about how to guide you forward.
Better Content Development
If we notice that most students rewatch a particular video segment three times, that's a signal. Maybe the explanation needs work, or perhaps that concept deserves a supplementary resource. Your usage patterns help us create better educational materials.
Technical Improvements
Analytics show us technical issues we might not catch otherwise. Slow page loads on mobile devices? High drop-off rates on a specific browser? We can fix problems we actually know about.
Relevant Program Information
Instead of bombarding everyone with every possible course offering, we can show you programs that align with what you've been studying. If you're deep into corporate finance content, you probably care more about our advanced valuation program starting in September 2025 than our intro courses.
Taking Control of Your Tracking
You're not stuck with our default settings. Here's how to manage what we track:
- Check your browser settings — every major browser lets you view, delete, or block cookies entirely
- Use private or incognito browsing if you want a session that doesn't remember anything
- Install browser extensions designed for cookie management (though some might break site functionality)
- Clear your cookies periodically through your browser's privacy settings
- Adjust settings on individual cookie categories if your browser supports granular controls
Browser-Specific Instructions
Each browser handles cookies a bit differently. Here's where to look:
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies will probably break parts of our platform. Essential cookies are essential for a reason.
Third-Party Cookies
Sometimes we use services from other companies that set their own cookies. Video hosting platforms, analytics tools, content delivery networks — these services might place cookies when you interact with embedded content on our site.
We're selective about which third parties we work with, but we can't control their individual cookie policies. If you want details on what they track, you'll need to check their privacy documentation directly.
- Video analytics for our educational content platform
- Performance monitoring to catch technical issues
- Content delivery networks that speed up page loads
- Payment processing during course enrollment
How Long We Keep This Data
Session cookies vanish when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stick around longer — anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of years, depending on their purpose. Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized over time. We don't keep detailed individual tracking logs indefinitely because we don't need to.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes, regulations evolve, and we adjust our practices accordingly. When we make meaningful changes to how we handle cookies, we'll update this page and the revision date at the top.
Big changes might warrant a notification on the site itself. Small clarifications probably won't trigger an announcement, but the updated policy will always reflect current practices.
We recommend checking back occasionally if you care about the specifics of what we track. Or just bookmark this page and reference it when you're curious.
Your Rights Around Data
Australian privacy law gives you some control over your data. You can request to see what information we've collected about you, ask us to delete certain data, or question how we're using it.
Cookie data is often anonymous or pseudonymous, which means it might not always be tied directly to your identity. But if you have concerns about what we're tracking, reach out and we'll work through it with you.
Keep in mind that some data deletion requests might affect your ability to access certain features or maintain your learning progress on our platform.
