Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 2025
At quintheriq, we're straightforward about how we use tracking technologies on quintheriq.com. Cookies help us understand how you interact with our platform and allow us to improve your experience. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can manage your preferences.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They contain information that helps us recognize you during return visits and remember your preferences. Most websites use them, and they've become standard practice for providing personalized experiences online.
We also use similar technologies like web beacons, pixels, and local storage. These work alongside cookies to help us understand how people use our educational platform and which content resonates most with aspiring entrepreneurs.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site functional. They remember your login status, security preferences, and allow you to navigate between pages without losing progress. You can't disable these because the site wouldn't work properly without them.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices, like language preferences or form data you've entered. They make your visits smoother by storing information that personalizes your experience across sessions.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand which learning resources get the most engagement and where people struggle. This data helps us improve our program structure and create content that actually helps aspiring founders.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across our site to show you relevant content and program recommendations. They help us understand which marketing channels bring in students who are serious about launching their startups.
How We Use Tracking Data
Platform Improvement
We analyze how students navigate our learning modules to identify confusing sections or technical issues. This feedback loop helps us refine the curriculum and fix problems quickly.
Personalization
By understanding your interests and progress, we can suggest relevant workshops, resources, and mentorship opportunities that align with your startup journey.
Security
Cookies help us detect unusual activity and protect your account from unauthorized access. They're part of our multi-layer security approach to keeping your information safe.
Session Cookies
These temporary cookies disappear when you close your browser. They're mainly used for maintaining your login state and tracking your progress through multi-page processes like registration or course enrollment.
Persistent Cookies
These stay on your device for a set period, sometimes months or years. They remember your preferences and allow us to recognize you on return visits without requiring you to log in every time.
