Cookie Policy
We're pretty straightforward about how we track usage on techflowdynamix.com. This page explains what tracking technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
Last Updated: March 2025
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit. They help our site remember things about your visit – like your preferences or what pages you looked at. Think of them as digital bookmarks that make your experience smoother.
Some cookies stick around for months, others disappear the moment you close your browser. We use both types depending on what job they're doing.
How We Track Your Visit
Beyond cookies, we also use a few other tracking methods. Web beacons (tiny transparent images) help us understand which emails get opened and which pages get viewed. Local storage keeps some data right in your browser for faster loading times.
We're also tracking things like your IP address and browser type. Not to be nosy – it just helps us spot technical issues and make sure the site works properly on different devices.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site functioning. Without them, you can't log in, submit forms, or navigate properly. They're the foundation – which is why we can't really turn them off.
Examples: Session identifiers, security tokens, load balancing cookies
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices. Language preferences, region settings, customisation options – stuff that makes your experience feel personalised. You can disable these, but you'll need to reset preferences each visit.
Examples: Preference storage, display settings, accessibility options
Analytics Cookies
We track how people use the site. Which pages get the most attention? Where do visitors spend their time? This helps us figure out what's working and what needs improvement. All data is aggregated – we're looking at patterns, not individuals.
Examples: Google Analytics, page view tracking, interaction monitoring
Marketing Cookies
These track your journey across different sites to show relevant ads. If you're seeing TechFlow Dynamix ads elsewhere after visiting us, that's these cookies at work. You can opt out through your browser settings or ad preference tools.
Examples: Retargeting pixels, ad platform cookies, conversion tracking
Why We Track This Stuff
Honestly? Because it makes the site better. Here's what tracking helps us do:
- Keep you logged in so you don't have to re-enter credentials every single page
- Remember your form inputs if something goes wrong mid-submission
- Understand which services interest people most so we can improve them
- Spot technical problems before they affect everyone
- Measure how well our content performs and what topics resonate
- Show you relevant information based on previous interactions
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control here. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings menu. Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies might break some site functionality.
Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage cookies
You can also opt out of targeted advertising through the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative websites. Both offer industry-wide opt-out tools that work across multiple platforms.
How Long We Keep This Data
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Others stick around longer – usually between 30 days and 2 years depending on their purpose.
Analytics data gets anonymised after 26 months. Marketing cookies typically expire after 90 days, though some ad platforms use longer periods. Essential cookies last as long as needed to keep the site working.
You can clear all cookies manually through your browser settings whenever you want. We also periodically review and clean up stored data that's no longer needed.
Third-Party Tracking
Some cookies come from external services we use – like Google Analytics or ad platforms. These services have their own privacy policies that govern how they handle data. We're careful about which third parties we work with, but you should know they're collecting information too.
We don't sell your data to third parties. Ever. The tracking we allow from external services is strictly for improving site performance and measuring our marketing efforts.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy occasionally as our practices change or new regulations come into effect. When we make significant changes, we'll update the "Last Updated" date at the top and may notify active users through email or site notifications.
Check back periodically if you want to stay current on how we're handling tracking. The policy date makes it easy to see when something changed.
