Cookie & Tracking Policy

What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit aureliphonos.com. These files help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our platform, and provide personalized experiences for financial fraud prevention education.

Beyond traditional cookies, we also use web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage technologies. These work together to create a comprehensive understanding of user behavior, helping us improve our educational content and platform security measures.

Types of Tracking We Use

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

Our tracking systems work behind the scenes to make your educational journey more effective. When you're halfway through a fraud detection course, cookies remember exactly where you left off. If you prefer reading case studies over watching videos, our analytics help surface more written content.

For our Canadian users, location-based tracking helps us provide relevant examples - like referencing Canadian banking regulations or highlighting scams that specifically target Canadian consumers. This isn't about surveillance; it's about making education more relevant and actionable.

We also track which educational pathways lead to better learning outcomes. Maybe users who complete our basic fraud awareness course before diving into advanced topics show better retention rates. This data helps us design more effective learning sequences.

Managing Your Browser Settings

Data Retention and Your Control

You have the right to request deletion of your data at any time. While we can't remove essential cookies that keep the site functioning, we can clear all analytics, preference, and marketing tracking data. This process typically takes 48-72 hours to complete across all our systems.

Keep in mind that clearing all data means losing your course progress, custom settings, and personalized recommendations. You'll essentially start fresh the next time you visit aureliphonos.com, which might not be ideal if you're in the middle of our comprehensive fraud prevention certification program.

Third-Party Integrations and Data Sharing

aureliphonos works with several third-party services to deliver our educational content effectively. Google Analytics helps us understand user behavior, while our learning management system tracks course completion rates. We also integrate with email marketing platforms to send relevant course updates and fraud alerts.

These partners operate under their own privacy policies, but we require them to maintain high standards for data protection. They can only use your data for the specific services they provide to aureliphonos - they can't sell your information to other companies or use it for unrelated purposes.

Canadian users are protected under PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act), which gives you additional rights regarding how your personal information is collected, used, and disclosed. We ensure all our third-party partners comply with Canadian privacy requirements.
