What Are Tracking Technologies?

When you visit our website, small pieces of data get stored on your device. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember who you are and what you were doing. Some people find this helpful – it means you don't have to log in every time or lose your place when reviewing budget strategies.

But not everyone wants to be tracked. And honestly, that's fair. These technologies can follow you around the web, building profiles of your browsing habits. We use them to understand how people interact with our financial education resources and to improve the experience. Still, the choice to accept or reject them should always be yours.

Types of Trackers We Use

Essential

These keep the site running. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access your account. They're necessary for basic functionality, so they can't be disabled.

Functional

These remember your preferences – like which currency format you prefer or your dashboard layout. They make the experience more personalized but aren't strictly necessary.

Analytics

We track which articles get read most, where people click, and how long they spend on different sections. This helps us figure out what's working and what needs improvement.

Marketing

These follow you across websites to show relevant ads. If you've looked at our budget planning resources, you might see related financial content elsewhere online.

What We Actually Track

  • Your login credentials and session information so you don't have to authenticate repeatedly
  • Page views and navigation patterns to understand which educational content resonates most
  • Time spent on different resources to gauge engagement and usefulness
  • Device type and browser information for compatibility testing
  • Referral sources to know where our visitors come from
  • Search terms used within our site to improve content discovery
  • Form interactions to identify where people get stuck or confused
  • Download activity for resources like budget templates or planning worksheets

How Long Do We Keep This Data?

Different trackers last different amounts of time. Some disappear the moment you close your browser – we call these session trackers. Others stick around for months or even years. The marketing ones tend to be the most persistent, sometimes lasting up to two years.

Typical Retention Periods

Session trackers expire when you close the browser. Functional trackers usually last between 3-12 months. Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after 26 months. Marketing trackers can persist for up to 24 months depending on the advertising network.

You can clear these anytime through your browser settings. When you do, it's like starting fresh – the website won't remember your preferences or recognize you as a returning visitor.

Managing Your Browser Settings

Every major browser lets you control tracking technologies. The settings are usually buried in privacy or security menus. Here's where to find them:

Chrome

Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data

Firefox

Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data

Edge

Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies

Safari

Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data

You can block all trackers, but some websites might not work properly if you do. Most browsers now offer a middle ground – blocking third-party trackers while allowing first-party ones from sites you visit directly.

Third-Party Services

We don't just use our own tracking technologies. Some belong to third-party services we've integrated – analytics platforms, advertising networks, and social media widgets. These companies have their own policies about data collection.

Google Analytics helps us understand traffic patterns. If we're running ads, you might see trackers from advertising platforms. Video embeds from YouTube or Vimeo bring their own tracking along for the ride. Each of these services operates independently with their own data practices.

Important Note About External Services

When you interact with embedded content or third-party features on our site, those companies may collect information directly. We don't control their practices, and their policies apply to the data they gather. We try to work with reputable providers, but you should review their privacy policies if you're concerned about specific services.

Your Rights and Choices

Australian privacy regulations give you rights over your personal information. You can request to see what data we've collected, ask us to delete it, or opt out of certain types of tracking. The button at the top of this page handles non-essential trackers with one click.

If you want to go further, you can disable all tracking through your browser, use private browsing modes, or install extensions that block trackers automatically. Some people use VPNs or privacy-focused browsers like Brave. There are lots of tools available if you want more control.

Just remember that blocking everything might break some features. Interactive calculators, personalized dashboards, and saved preferences all rely on storing some information locally. It's about finding the balance that works for you.

This policy explains our current practices as of March 2025. Things change – technology evolves, regulations update, and our services expand.
