Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 22, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Keryfeu ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit or interact with our website at keryfeu.info. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.
By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. Where your consent is required, you may withdraw it at any time using the methods described below.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — computer, tablet, or mobile phone — when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, to work more efficiently, and to provide information to the website owners.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or install malware on your device. They are simply data files stored locally by your browser.
Similar technologies include web beacons, pixel tags, local storage, and session storage. These technologies function in comparable ways and are also covered by this policy. For simplicity, we refer to all of them collectively as "cookies" throughout this document.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several categories of cookies on our website. Each category serves a distinct purpose, as described below.
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, services you have requested cannot be provided.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent under applicable frameworks, as they are indispensable for the delivery of the service.
2.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features may not function correctly.
Examples of functionality supported by these cookies include remembering your language preferences, maintaining your session state across page visits, and recalling choices you have previously made.
2.3 Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
2.4 Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. You may still see general advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your interests.
2.5 Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third parties on our behalf or as a result of embedded content, such as video players, social sharing buttons, or analytics tools. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we encourage you to review them independently.
We do not control the operation of third-party cookies and are not responsible for the data collected through them beyond what is disclosed in this policy.
3. Cookie Duration
Cookies can be classified by how long they remain on your device.
| Type | Duration | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Until browser is closed | Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session during a single visit. |
| Persistent Cookies | Days to years | Remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually. They are used to remember preferences across visits. |
The specific retention period for each cookie we use is determined by its purpose. Strictly necessary session cookies typically expire when you close your browser, while preference and analytics cookies may persist for up to 12 or 24 months.
4. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
Authentication and security: To identify you when you log into your account and to protect your account from unauthorised access.
Preferences and settings: To remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or display settings, so you do not have to reconfigure them on each visit.
Service delivery: To deliver the core functionality of our educational platform, including content sequencing, progress tracking, and session continuity.
Performance monitoring: To understand how our website is used so we can identify areas for improvement and ensure a reliable experience for all users.
Communication and support: To maintain the state of interactions such as support chat sessions or feedback forms.
5. Your Choices and Controls
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies beyond those that are strictly necessary. You can exercise your preferences in the following ways.
5.1 Cookie Consent Tool
When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice that allows you to accept or decline different categories of cookies. You can update your preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings available on our website.
5.2 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can configure your browser to refuse all cookies, to alert you when a cookie is being set, or to delete cookies that have already been placed on your device. The method for doing this varies by browser. Please refer to your browser's help documentation for specific instructions.
Please be aware that restricting cookies may impact the functionality of our website. Certain features may not work as intended if necessary cookies are blocked.
5.3 Opt-Out from Analytics Providers
If we use third-party analytics services, those providers may offer their own opt-out mechanisms. For example, some analytics providers offer browser add-ons that prevent data collection. You can consult the relevant provider's documentation for details on how to opt out.
5.4 Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" signal to websites. Our website does not currently alter its behaviour in response to such signals, as there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to them. We will update this policy if that position changes.
6. Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies we use may collect information that, alone or in combination with other data, could identify you as an individual. Where this is the case, our processing of that data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information.
We encourage you to read our Privacy Policy in conjunction with this Cookie Policy to fully understand how your data is handled.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our business practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you through a notice on our website or by other means.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Your continued use of our website after any changes constitutes your acknowledgement of the updated policy.
