Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 2025
At elorynthiq, we're straightforward about how we track and manage data on our website. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, why we need them, and how you can control what happens with your information. We believe transparency matters when it comes to your online privacy.
What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. They help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our site. But cookies aren't the only tracking technology out there.
We also use things like web beacons (tiny invisible images), local storage (data saved directly in your browser), and session identifiers. Each serves a specific purpose in making your experience better or helping us improve our fraud prevention services.
Think of cookies as the website's memory. Without them, you'd have to log in every time you visited a new page or reset your preferences constantly. Some are essential for basic functionality. Others help us understand which content resonates with Australian businesses looking for fraud protection solutions.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These are non-negotiable. They keep the website functioning and secure. You can't actually disable these through browser settings because the site wouldn't work properly without them.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences. Things like your language selection, region settings, or whether you've dismissed certain notifications. They make your visits more convenient.
Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand how people navigate our site. Which pages get the most attention? Where do visitors spend their time? This data helps us create better content about fraud prevention.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity to show relevant content and measure campaign effectiveness. If you've visited our fraud prevention resources, you might see related content elsewhere online.
How Tracking Improves Your Experience
Personalized Content Delivery
When we know you're interested in financial fraud prevention for Australian businesses, we can show you relevant case studies and resources. You won't waste time sorting through content that doesn't apply to your situation.
Security and Fraud Detection
Ironically, while we help businesses prevent fraud, we also need to protect our own platform. Cookies help us identify suspicious activity patterns and keep your data secure.
Performance Optimization
By understanding which features people use most, we can prioritize improvements and make the site faster. If everyone's searching for information about payment fraud, we'll make that content easier to find.
Learning Program Development
For our autumn 2025 and early 2026 training programs, tracking data helps us understand which topics generate the most interest. This shapes curriculum development and ensures we're teaching skills people actually need.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Browser-Specific Instructions
Google Chrome
Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can block all cookies, allow only first-party cookies, or manage site-specific permissions.
Mozilla Firefox
Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers enhanced tracking protection with different levels of blocking.
Safari
Preferences → Privacy. Safari blocks many third-party cookies by default and offers intelligent tracking prevention.
Microsoft Edge
Settings → Cookies and site permissions. Edge provides tracking prevention with three levels: Basic, Balanced, and Strict.
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies will affect site functionality. You might find yourself logged out frequently or unable to access certain features. We recommend adjusting settings to balance privacy with usability.
Third-Party Services
We work with external providers for analytics and content delivery. These services may place their own cookies on your device. While we choose partners carefully, each has its own privacy policy that governs their data practices.
Common third-party services we use include analytics platforms, content delivery networks, and email service providers. Each serves a specific purpose in delivering our fraud prevention education and resources to Australian businesses.
You can opt out of many third-party tracking services through industry tools or by adjusting your browser settings. However, this may affect how personalized your experience is across different websites.
How Long We Keep Cookie Data
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stick around longer, anywhere from a few days to two years, depending on their purpose. We regularly review and delete outdated tracking data. You can clear cookies manually at any time through your browser settings.
Your Control and Rights
Australian privacy legislation gives you specific rights regarding your data. You can request information about what data we've collected, ask us to delete it, or restrict how we process it.
We respect your choices. If you decide to limit tracking, we'll still provide access to our fraud prevention resources and educational content. Some features might not work as smoothly, but the core information remains accessible.
For questions about specific data practices or to exercise your rights, reach out to our team directly. We process requests within reasonable timeframes and keep you informed throughout the process.
Changes to This Policy
Technology evolves. Privacy regulations change. We update this policy periodically to reflect new practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you through the website or via email if you're subscribed to our communications.
We recommend checking back occasionally, especially if you have concerns about tracking and data usage. The "last updated" date at the top shows when we most recently revised this policy.
