This policy explains the cookie EqasOnline Academy uses at academy.eqasonline.com. It is run by legal entity (to be confirmed) ("EqasOnline", "we").
The short version
- We use one cookie, to keep you signed in.
- We do not use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies.
- Because the cookie is strictly necessary, we do not show a cookie banner.
The cookie we use
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| [[TBC: cookie name]] | Keeps you signed in after you enter your one-time code, and keeps your exam attempt linked to your account | Strictly necessary, set by us | [[TBC: lifetime]] |
Without this cookie you cannot sign in, take the course with saved progress, or sit the exam.
Verify pages do not need you to sign in. If you only check a credential, we do not set this cookie.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block this one, you will not be able to sign in.
Performance monitoring
We measure how fast pages load and record errors, so we can fix problems. We use Grafana Faro, an open-source tool, for this. It collects anonymous data and does not set cookies.
[[TBC: confirm whether the monitoring script keeps a session identifier in browser storage. If it does, list it here with its purpose and lifetime.]]
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, we do not load the monitoring script at all.
What we do not use
- No analytics cookies.
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No social media tracking pixels.
- No cookies from other companies.
Changes
If we ever want to add another cookie, we will update this policy first. Where the law requires consent, we will ask for it before we set the cookie.
