Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 12, 2025
At Flunk Xurm, we believe you should know exactly what happens when you visit our site. This policy explains how we use tracking technologies on flunkxurm.pro—and more importantly, how you can control them. We're not fans of hidden surprises when it comes to your data.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites save on your device. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help our site remember things about your visit. When you come back, these files tell our site who you are and what you might have been doing last time.
Some cookies disappear when you close your browser—we call those session cookies. Others stick around for weeks or months, which we refer to as persistent cookies. Both types serve different purposes on our platform.
Beyond traditional cookies, we also use similar tracking methods like web beacons, pixels, and local storage. They all do roughly the same job: help us understand how people interact with our educational content about market volatility.
How We Use These Tracking Tools
Here's the straight story. We use cookies and similar technologies to make flunkxurm.pro work properly and to understand what's actually helping our visitors learn about financial markets.
Essential
These keep the site functioning. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access certain features. They're necessary for basic operations and security.
Functional
These remember your preferences—like which language you speak or whether you've visited before. They make your experience smoother by storing choices you've made.
Analytical
We use these to see which educational resources actually get used. They tell us if people are finding our market volatility explanations helpful or confusing.
Marketing
These track your interests so we can show you relevant information about our programs. They help us understand which topics resonate with potential students.
Specific Cookies We Deploy
Here's a breakdown of the actual cookies you'll encounter on our site. We've tried to be as transparent as possible about what each one does and how long it stays on your device.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| fx_session | Maintains your active session while browsing | Session only |
| fx_prefs | Stores your site preferences and settings | 12 months |
| fx_analytics | Tracks page views and user interactions | 24 months |
| fx_source | Records how you found our site | 30 days |
| fx_returning | Identifies returning visitors | 6 months |
Why This Matters for Your Learning Experience
When you're trying to understand complex topics like market volatility, having a personalized experience actually helps. Cookies let us remember where you left off in a learning module or which resources you've already explored.
For instance, if you're halfway through our section on economic indicators, functional cookies make sure you don't have to start from scratch next time. Analytical cookies tell us if that section is too long or if people are getting stuck on certain concepts.
We also use tracking data to improve our educational content. If we notice everyone's bouncing away from a particular explanation, that's a signal we need to rewrite it in clearer language.
Data Retention and Storage
Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time. Session cookies vanish the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies can last anywhere from a few weeks to two years, depending on their purpose.
We regularly review and clean up old cookie data. If a cookie has served its purpose or hasn't been active for an extended period, we remove it from our systems. Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after six months—we don't need to know every click you made a year ago.
Taking Control of Your Cookies
You're not stuck with our cookies if you don't want them. Every modern browser gives you tools to manage, block, or delete tracking technologies. Here's how to do it in the most common browsers:
- Chrome: Navigate to Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data. You can block all cookies or set up exceptions for specific sites.
- Firefox: Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers enhanced tracking protection by default.
- Safari: Head to Preferences → Privacy. Safari already blocks most third-party cookies automatically as of 2025.
- Edge: Click Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies. You can view which sites have stored cookies.
Third-Party Services and External Links
We use a few external services that might set their own cookies—things like analytics platforms or video hosting services. When you interact with embedded content from these providers, they may track that activity according to their own policies.
If you click a link that takes you off flunkxurm.pro, you're entering someone else's territory. We can't control what cookies those sites use, so we recommend checking their policies if you're concerned about tracking.
Changes to This Policy
Technology evolves, and so do our practices. We'll update this policy when we start using new tracking methods or when regulations change. The "Last Updated" date at the top tells you when we last made changes.
If we make significant changes—like introducing a new category of cookies—we'll let you know through a notice on our homepage. We won't quietly slip in major changes and hope nobody notices.
Questions About Our Cookie Use?
