Cookie Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
We use tracking technologies on ronethquira.com to help you get the most out of your visit. These small files work behind the scenes to remember your preferences and make navigating our budget essentials resources smoother. Think of them as helpful assistants that keep track of what matters to you.
What We're Actually Tracking
When you browse ronethquira.com, we collect bits of information that help us understand how people interact with our financial education materials. This isn't about being nosy – it's about making sure our budget planning tools actually work the way you need them to.
We track things like which articles you read, how long you spend on different calculators, and which resources you download. If you're searching for information about emergency funds one day and then retirement planning the next week, we remember that context so we can suggest relevant content.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Operations
These keep the site running properly. Without them, you'd have trouble logging in or accessing your saved budget templates. They're not optional because they handle the basic functionality you expect when you visit any website.
- Remember your login session while you browse
- Keep items in your resource download list
- Maintain your security settings throughout your visit
Functional Enhancements
These remember your choices so you don't have to start from scratch each time. If you've set your budget calculator to show Australian dollars or adjusted the font size for easier reading, these technologies save those preferences.
- Your preferred currency display settings
- Which budget categories you've customized
- Your saved calculation templates
Performance Monitoring
We watch how people move through the site to spot where things get confusing or slow. If everyone's bouncing off a particular page about investment basics, that tells us something needs fixing. The data we gather here is anonymized – we're looking at patterns, not individuals.
- Page load times and technical performance
- Navigation paths through our learning materials
- Error messages or broken links you encounter
Marketing Insights
These help us understand which financial topics interest you most. If you've been reading a lot about small business budgeting, we might show you related articles or notify you when we publish new content in that area. We also use this information to measure whether our educational campaigns are reaching the right people.
- Suggest relevant budget planning resources
- Measure effectiveness of our educational outreach
- Understand which financial topics need more coverage
Taking Control of Your Data
Most browsers let you manage tracking preferences directly. Here's where to find those settings:
How Long We Keep This Information
Different tracking technologies stick around for different lengths of time. Some disappear the moment you close your browser – those are session-based and only exist while you're actively using the site.
Others last longer, anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of years. The functional ones that remember your preferences typically stay around for about 12 months. Performance tracking data gets aggregated and anonymized pretty quickly, usually within 90 days. Marketing insights might persist longer, but we regularly clean out old information that's no longer useful.
Your Rights and Choices
You can disable any non-essential tracking without losing access to our budget planning resources. Sure, you might have to re-enter some preferences each time you visit, but the core educational content remains fully accessible. If you want to know exactly what we've collected about your visits or request deletion of that data, just reach out to us directly.
Third-Party Tracking
We work with a few external services to analyze site performance and understand our audience better. These partners have their own tracking technologies and policies. While we're careful about who we work with, those third-party tools operate under their own rules.
For example, we use analytics services to see which budget templates get downloaded most often. These services might place their own tracking files on your device. We've configured them to respect privacy as much as possible, but they're not entirely under our control.
Changes to This Policy
We update this document when we add new tracking technologies or change how we use existing ones. Check back occasionally if you're curious about what's changed. The date at the top shows when we last made revisions.
If we make significant changes to how we handle tracking data, we'll post a notice on the site rather than just quietly updating this page. That way you're not caught off guard by new data collection practices.
Questions About Our Tracking?
We get that privacy matters, especially when it comes to your financial education journey. If something here doesn't make sense or you want more details about specific tracking technologies, we're happy to explain.
