Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies Anyway?

Cookies are small data files that websites place on your computer or mobile device. When you visit synapmaxon.com, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it. Next time you visit, your browser sends that cookie back to us.

They help us recognize you when you return. Without cookies, our website wouldn't remember that you're logged in, what settings you prefer, or which pages you've already visited.

Most websites you visit use cookies. They've become a standard part of how the web works. But we want you to understand exactly how we use them here.

Types of Cookies We Use

First-Party vs Third-Party

First-party cookies come directly from synapmaxon.com. We control these completely. Third-party cookies come from other services we use, like analytics tools or embedded content. We're selective about which third parties we work with.

How We Actually Use These

Here's what happens in practice. When you log into synapmaxon.com, we set a session cookie that keeps you logged in as you move between pages. Without it, you'd have to log in again on every page. That would be frustrating.

If you adjust your dashboard to show specific financial metrics, we save that preference in a functional cookie. Next time you visit, your dashboard looks the way you want it.

Our analytical cookies tell us things like: "450 people visited the business analysis guide this week" or "Most users access the platform between 9am and 11am." We don't see personally identifiable information from these cookies. Just patterns and trends.

Marketing cookies help us show relevant information to people who've expressed interest in our services. If you've read about cash flow analysis on our site, you might see content about financial forecasting when you're browsing other business sites.

Your Control Options

You have several ways to manage cookies. The simplest is the button below, which rejects all non-essential cookies with one click. Your preference gets saved so we remember your choice.

Managing Through Your Browser

Every browser has built-in controls for cookies. You can block all cookies, delete existing ones, or set rules for which sites can use them. Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from logging in or using key features.

Data Retention

Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay until they expire or you delete them.

Our essential session cookies last until you log out or close your browser. Functional cookies that remember your preferences typically last for one year. Analytical cookies expire after 90 days. Marketing cookies from third parties usually last between 30 and 180 days, depending on the provider.

You can clear all cookies at any time through your browser settings. When you do, you'll lose any saved preferences and will need to log in again.

Third-Party Services

We use a few external services that set their own cookies. Our analytics provider helps us understand site usage patterns. We use a content delivery network to load pages faster. And we integrate with business tools that help us serve you better.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. We choose partners carefully and only work with companies that meet our standards for data handling. But you should know that when you click "decline all non-essential cookies," we stop these third-party services from tracking you.

Updates to This Policy

We review this policy regularly. If we change how we use cookies, we'll update this page and note the revision date at the top. Significant changes will be highlighted on your dashboard when you log in.

Technology changes. Regulations evolve. Our practices might need to adjust accordingly. When they do, we'll let you know clearly what's different.
