Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 15, 2025
This page explains how Fylagios uses tracking technologies on fylagios.info. We believe families deserve straightforward information about how their data gets handled when they visit our website. No jargon, no confusion—just the facts about what we track and why it matters for your experience.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Think of cookies as tiny notes your browser saves when you visit a website. They remember things like your preferences or what page you were on. Most sites use them, and they're usually harmless—though we know privacy matters.
These files sit on your device until they expire or you delete them. Some stick around for years, others vanish when you close your browser. They help websites function properly and remember who you are between visits.
How We Use Tracking Technologies
At Fylagios, we use several tracking methods to keep the site running smoothly and understand how families interact with our investment education content. Here's what we collect:
- Session information to keep you logged in while browsing our learning resources
- Page visit data so we know which investment topics get the most attention
- Device type and browser details to fix technical issues faster
- Click patterns that show us what content actually helps Canadian families
- Form interactions to improve our contact and registration processes
We don't sell this information. It stays with us and helps make the site better for everyone trying to learn about family investing.
Types of Cookies We Deploy
Essential Cookies
These keep the website functioning. Without them, you can't log in, submit forms, or access protected content. They're necessary for basic operations and security measures that protect your account information.
Functional Cookies
These remember your preferences—things like which province you're from or whether you prefer metric or imperial measurements in our investment calculators. They make your experience more personal without tracking you across the web.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to see how people use the site. Which blog posts get read? Where do visitors drop off during registration? This data helps us create better content about teaching kids about money or planning for retirement.
Marketing Cookies
These track whether you came from an ad or email campaign. They help us understand which educational programs resonate with Canadian families and where to focus our outreach efforts for upcoming workshops in 2025.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
How Long We Keep This Information
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies might hang around for months or even a couple years, depending on their purpose. Analytics data gets anonymized after 26 months and stored in aggregate form.
If you delete your cookies manually, you'll lose saved preferences and might need to log in again. That's normal. Your account data stays safe in our systems—only the browser-side cookies vanish.
We review our data retention policies annually and delete information that no longer serves a clear purpose. Old tracking data from 2023 and earlier gets purged regularly to keep storage lean and privacy strong.
Third-Party Services
Some cookies come from services we use but don't directly control. For example, if we embed a video about retirement planning, YouTube might drop its own cookies. Same goes for analytics platforms that help us understand site traffic.
We carefully vet these partners and only work with companies that respect user privacy. But once a third-party cookie lands on your device, their privacy policy governs how they use that data. We encourage reading those policies if you're concerned.
Your Rights and Choices
You control your own browser. Block cookies entirely if you want—though some site features won't work. Most browsers let you accept cookies but automatically delete them when you close the window, which offers a middle ground.
Canadian privacy laws give you the right to know what data we collect and request deletion of personal information. If you want to exercise those rights, contact us directly. We typically respond within two weeks.
Questions About Our Cookie Use?
