Cookie & Data Usage Policy

Understanding how Flareon SparkFlow uses tracking technologies to enhance your learning experience and protect your privacy

What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember you and your preferences. At Flareon SparkFlow, we use various tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies to create a personalized educational experience.

Local Storage: Browser-based storage that keeps your learning progress and preferences even when you close the browser. This means when you return to continue your dApp development course, you'll pick up exactly where you left off.

Session Storage: Temporary storage that maintains your activity during a single browsing session. This keeps track of your current lesson, quiz progress, and any notes you've taken during that study session.

Pixel Tags: Tiny invisible images that help us understand how you interact with our educational content. These show us which tutorials are most helpful and where students might be struggling.

Why We Use These Technologies

Every piece of data we collect serves a specific purpose in making your learning journey smoother and more effective. We track your progress so you never lose your place in complex blockchain concepts.

Types of Tracking We Use

Essential Functionality

These track your login status, course enrollment, and basic site functionality. Without these, you couldn't access your personalized dashboard or submit assignments. They're absolutely necessary for the platform to work.

Learning Analytics

We monitor how you progress through lessons, which concepts take longer to grasp, and where you excel. This data helps us improve course content and identify when additional support might be helpful.

Performance Optimization

These track page loading times, video streaming quality, and interactive coding environment performance. We use this data to ensure smooth learning experiences across different devices and internet speeds.

Communication Preferences

We remember your notification preferences, preferred contact methods, and which updates you want to receive about new courses or industry developments in decentralized applications.

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

Let me give you some specific examples of how our tracking technologies make your learning experience better:

Personalized Learning Paths: When you struggle with Solidity smart contracts but excel at React frontend development, our system notices this pattern. We can then recommend additional resources for blockchain programming while fast-tracking you through frontend modules.

Progress Synchronization: Start a lesson on your laptop during lunch break, then continue on your phone during your commute home. Our tracking ensures seamless continuity across all your devices.

Adaptive Content Delivery: If our analytics show you prefer video tutorials over written documentation, we'll prioritize video-based learning materials in your feed. Students who engage more with hands-on coding exercises see more interactive labs.

Community Features: We track which discussion topics you engage with most, helping connect you with study groups and mentors who share similar interests in specific aspects of dApp development.

Managing Your Privacy Settings

You have several options for controlling how we track your activity. Here's how to adjust settings in major browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Click the three dots menu → Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies while allowing functional ones from flareon-sparkflow.com
  • Mozilla Firefox: Open menu → Settings → Privacy & Security → Enhanced Tracking Protection. Choose "Custom" to fine-tune which tracking elements you want to allow
  • Safari: Safari menu → Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data. You can remove stored data for specific sites or prevent cross-site tracking entirely
  • Microsoft Edge: Three dots menu → Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data. Configure exceptions for educational platforms you trust

Keep in mind that blocking all tracking will limit some platform features. Your progress won't sync between devices, and you'll need to reconfigure preferences each time you visit.

Data Retention and Your Control

Different types of data have different retention periods based on their purpose and your ongoing relationship with our platform:

Session Data
Cleared automatically when you close your browser or log out. Includes temporary progress on incomplete lessons and current session preferences.
Learning Progress
Stored for the duration of your enrollment plus 2 years. This includes completed courses, grades, certificates earned, and skill assessments.
Analytics Data
Aggregated and anonymized after 18 months. Individual behavioral patterns are generalized into broader insights about learning effectiveness.
Account Preferences
Maintained until you modify them or close your account. Includes notification settings, accessibility preferences, and communication choices.

You can request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting our support team. However, some educational records may need to be retained for accreditation and certification verification purposes.
