What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember your preferences and improve your experience on clarithoquenv.sbs. We also use similar tracking technologies like web beacons, pixels, and local storage to understand how you interact with our macro photography content.

These technologies serve various purposes – some are essential for basic website functionality, while others help us analyze which photography tutorials are most popular or remember that you prefer viewing images in full-screen mode. We believe in transparency about how these tools work and what data they collect.

Types of Tracking We Use

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

When you allow tracking, we can provide personalized recommendations based on your interests. For instance, if you frequently view our close-up flower photography tutorials, we might suggest advanced lighting techniques for botanical subjects. This targeted approach helps you discover relevant content more efficiently.

Analytics data shows us which parts of our macro photography courses students find most challenging. This insight allows us to create additional supporting materials, clarify complex concepts, or adjust our teaching approach. Your anonymous usage patterns contribute to improving the educational experience for all students.

Data Retention and Your Rights

Different types of cookies have different lifespans. Essential cookies typically last for your browsing session, while preference cookies might remain for up to two years to remember your settings. Analytics cookies generally expire after 24 months, and marketing cookies vary from 30 days to two years depending on their purpose.

You have the right to access information about what data we've collected, request corrections to inaccurate data, or ask us to delete your information entirely. If you have concerns about how we handle your data, you can contact our privacy team using the information provided below.

Third-Party Services and Integration

Some of our tracking comes from third-party services that enhance our platform. Google Analytics helps us understand user behavior, while social media plugins allow easy sharing of macro photography tips. These services have their own privacy policies and cookie practices that you should review.

We carefully select third-party partners who meet our privacy standards, but we encourage you to read their policies as well. Popular services we use include Google Analytics, YouTube for video content, and various social media platforms for community features.
