Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies and How We Use Them
When you visit joraviental.com, small text files get stored on your device. We're talking about cookies here – nothing fancy, just simple data files that help our website remember things about your visit.
Think of cookies as digital sticky notes. They keep track of what you're doing so the site can work properly and remember your preferences. Some stick around for a few minutes, others for months. It depends on what job they're doing.
We don't use cookies to be nosy. They're here to make your experience smoother and help us understand how people actually use our site. That's it.
Types of Tracking Technologies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site running. Without them, basic features wouldn't work. You can't really turn these off if you want to use joraviental.com properly.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices – like language preferences or if you've filled out certain forms. They make return visits less repetitive.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to see which pages get visited most and where people spend their time. Helps us figure out what's working and what needs fixing.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across different sites to show you relevant content. You have control over these through your browser settings.

How Cookies Help Your Experience
Let's be honest – websites without cookies can be frustrating. You'd need to log in every time you click a new page. Your shopping cart would empty itself randomly. The site wouldn't remember if you prefer dark mode or not.
Cookies let us recognize returning visitors, show you content that actually matters to your interests, and keep track of your journey through our learning resources without making you start over each time.
The analytics side is pretty straightforward too. We see that most people visit our business models section in the afternoon. That tells us when to schedule updates or new content releases. Or if everyone's bouncing off a particular page, we know something needs fixing.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control here. Most browsers let you manage or block cookies entirely. Just know that blocking essential ones will break parts of the site.
Browser-Specific Instructions
Third-Party Tracking
Sometimes we work with outside services that set their own cookies. Analytics tools, for instance. Or if we embed a video from another platform, that platform might drop a cookie on your device.
We pick partners carefully and only work with services that respect user privacy. But you should know – when you interact with third-party content on our site, their privacy policies apply too.
- Analytics providers track site performance and user behavior patterns
- Content delivery networks help load pages faster across Australia
- Payment processors handle transaction security if you purchase courses
- Email services remember your communication preferences
Data Retention and Your Rights
Different cookies hang around for different lengths of time. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Others stick around for months or even years, depending on what they do.
You can delete cookies anytime through your browser. Most browsers have a "clear browsing data" option that wipes everything. Just remember – this logs you out of websites and resets all your preferences.
Australian privacy laws give you specific rights regarding your data. You can request to see what information we've collected, ask us to delete it, or opt out of certain tracking activities. We take these rights seriously.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes. Laws change. Our practices might need to change too. When we update this policy, we'll change the date at the top and let you know if anything significant shifts.
We're not going to send dramatic emails about minor wording tweaks. But if we start using cookies in new ways or add tracking that materially affects your privacy, you'll hear from us.
