Cookie Policy
How RisksEdu uses cookies, what types we use, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide information to website operators.
Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences or the actions you have taken on the site.
2. How We Use Cookies
RisksEdu uses a minimal approach to cookies. We use only the cookies that are necessary for the Site to function correctly or that provide meaningful improvements to your experience. We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking cookies, or cookies that profile your behavior for commercial purposes.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as submitting a form or adjusting settings. Without these cookies, the services you have asked for cannot be provided.
Examples on this Site:
- Cookie consent preference cookie: Stores your decision about whether to accept or decline non-essential cookies (key:
risksedu_cookie_consent). This is stored in your browser's localStorage and expires when you clear your browser data.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent under applicable law. They are always active.
3.2 Analytics Cookies (Optional)
With your consent, we may use anonymized analytics cookies to help us understand how visitors interact with our Site — which pages are most visited, how users navigate between pages, and where improvements can be made to our educational content.
These analytics are used solely to improve the educational quality and usability of the Site. We use privacy-preserving analytics tools that anonymize IP addresses and do not use data for advertising or third-party sharing.
Analytics cookies are only activated if you accept cookies using the cookie consent banner. You may decline or withdraw consent at any time using the methods described in Section 5 of this policy.
3.3 Cookies We Do Not Use
RisksEdu does not use:
- Advertising or targeting cookies
- Social media tracking cookies
- Cross-site tracking or behavioral profiling cookies
- Affiliate or marketing cookies
- Any cookies that identify you personally without your explicit consent
4. Third-Party Cookies
Our Site loads certain resources from third-party content delivery networks (CDNs) — specifically, icon fonts from unpkg.com and web fonts from Google Fonts. These external services may set their own cookies or log technical request data (such as IP addresses) in accordance with their own privacy policies.
We have no control over these third-party cookies. However, they are typically limited to performance and delivery optimization, and do not involve user tracking for advertising purposes.
For more information about Google Fonts' data handling, please review Google's privacy documentation at policies.google.com.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies:
5.1 Our Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit the Site, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner at the bottom of the page. You may:
- Accept Cookies: Enables strictly necessary cookies and, where applicable, optional analytics cookies.
- Decline: Enables only strictly necessary cookies required for the Site to function.
Your preference is stored in your browser's localStorage and will persist until you clear your browser data or change your preference.
5.2 Browser Settings
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored on your device and delete them individually
- Block all cookies or only third-party cookies
- Set your browser to notify you before accepting cookies
- Browse in private/incognito mode, which does not retain cookies after the session
Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this Site and other websites you visit. For guidance on managing cookies in popular browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
5.3 Opt-Out Tools
For opt-out from specific analytics platforms, you may use their dedicated opt-out tools or browser extensions if applicable to the analytics service we use.
6. Consent and Your Rights
Where cookies require your consent under applicable law (including the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR), we will only activate those cookies after you have given your explicit consent via the cookie consent banner.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by:
- Clearing your browser's localStorage data (which resets your preference so the banner will reappear)
- Clearing cookies in your browser settings
- Contacting us at info@risksedu.com to request removal of any stored data related to your visit
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable regulations. We will indicate the date of the most recent revision at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
