What Are Cookies & How Do They Work?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you browse our website. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help our site remember things about your visit.

These files contain bits of information—like your language preference or whether you're logged into your account. When you return to tarixavivexe.com, your browser sends these cookies back to us so we can provide a personalized experience.

Types of Tracking We Use

Specific Technologies We Implement

Session Management

When you log into your tarixavivexe account, we create a secure session cookie that keeps you authenticated as you move between pages. This expires when you log out or close your browser.

User Experience Tracking

We monitor how you interact with budget templates and financial planning tools. This includes tracking which calculators you use, how long you spend on educational content, and which features you access most frequently.

Performance Monitoring

Local storage and cache mechanisms help pages load faster on repeat visits. We store non-sensitive interface elements locally so your browser doesn't need to download everything each time.

Cross-Device Recognition

If you access tarixavivexe.com from multiple devices, we may use identifiers to provide a consistent experience across your phone, tablet, and computer. This helps sync your preferences and progress.

Data We Collect Through Tracking

• Pages you visit and how long you spend on each section
• Links you click within our educational resources
• Search terms you enter in our content library
• Device information including browser type, operating system, and screen resolution
• Geographic location at the city level (based on IP address)
• Referral source showing how you found tarixavivexe.com
• Time and date of your visits
• Feature usage patterns within budgeting tools

How Tracking Improves Your Experience

Here's what all this data collection actually accomplishes:

Personalized Content Recommendations

If you've been reading about emergency funds, we'll surface related articles about savings strategies. Cookies help us understand your financial education journey and suggest relevant next steps.

Faster Load Times

Cached resources mean you're not downloading the same CSS files and images every single visit. This saves bandwidth and makes navigation feel snappier.

Seamless Multi-Session Experience

Start building a budget on Tuesday, come back Friday—your work is waiting. Cookies remember your progress so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

Better Tool Development

Analytics show us which calculators get abandoned halfway through. When we see patterns, we redesign those tools to be more intuitive. Your anonymized usage data directly shapes product improvements.

Data Retention Periods

Browser-Level Cookie Management

You can control cookies directly through your browser settings. Each browser handles this differently:

Google Chrome

Click the three dots → Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. Here you can block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or clear existing cookies.

Mozilla Firefox

Open menu → Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers standard, strict, or custom protection levels.

Safari

Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data. Safari automatically blocks many third-party cookies by default.

Microsoft Edge

Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies. Edge includes tracking prevention with three levels of protection.

Third-Party Services

We partner with external services that may place their own cookies:

• Analytics platforms that help us understand site traffic and user behavior
• Content delivery networks that speed up page loading
• Email service providers that track newsletter engagement
• Customer support tools that enable chat functionality

These third parties operate under their own privacy policies. While we carefully vet partners, they may collect data independently of tarixavivexe's control.
