Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide useful features, and supply information to website owners. Cookies may be “session cookies” (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent cookies” (remaining on your device for a set period or until manually deleted). Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage objects, function in an analogous way and are covered by this policy.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We group our cookies into four categories:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and LMS. They enable core functions such as page navigation, login authentication, session management, and security. The website cannot function properly without them, and they cannot be disabled without breaking key features.
Preference Cookies
These cookies remember your choices and personalize your experience, such as your preferred language, course progress saves, and consent decisions. They improve usability but are not strictly required for the site to function.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect aggregated, anonymized information about how visitors use our website—pages visited, time on page, traffic sources, and user journeys. We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) for this purpose. IP anonymization is enabled. This data helps us improve our website and marketing content. It is not used to identify individuals.
Marketing and CRM Cookies
These cookies are placed by HubSpot, our CRM and marketing automation platform. They help us track which marketing channels bring visitors to our site, personalize follow-up communications, and measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. They may record whether you have filled out a contact form or downloaded a resource. These cookies are only active where you have given consent or where we have a legitimate interest under applicable law.

When you first visit our website, a consent banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences by category. You can change your preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the footer of our website.
You may also control cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website and LMS. Useful browser-level guidance:
To opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services (Google, HubSpot) that appear on our pages. We do not control how those third parties use the data they collect; please review their respective privacy policies for more information.
6. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes or as regulations evolve. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect when changes were made.
