What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us recognize you and remember your preferences across sessions. Most online platforms use cookies to improve functionality and understand how people interact with their services.

We use cookies at Pressure Zone Insight to track your course progress, maintain your logged-in session, and remember settings like your preferred language or accessibility options. Without certain cookies, features like saving your place in a lesson or keeping you signed in wouldn't work properly.

How We Use Cookies

We deploy cookies strategically to support your learning journey. When you're working through our critical thinking courses, cookies track your progress so you can pick up exactly where you left off, even if you switch devices.

Our platform uses cookies for several practical purposes:

• Maintaining your active session while you navigate between lessons and modules
• Remembering your quiz answers and assessment results so progress isn't lost
• Storing your display preferences and accessibility settings
• Analyzing which course content performs well and where learners typically struggle
• Understanding traffic patterns to improve server performance during peak hours

Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize our cookies based on their function and lifespan. Some exist only during your current session, while others persist longer to maintain your settings across multiple visits.

Essential cookies cannot be disabled because they're necessary for the platform to function. The others enhance your experience but aren't strictly required for basic access to course materials.

Your Cookie Choices

You control how cookies work on your device. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings menu. Keep in mind that disabling cookies may limit functionality on our platform.

Here's what happens when you adjust cookie settings:

• Blocking essential cookies will prevent you from logging in or accessing course content
  • Your session won't persist between pages
  • Security features that protect your account won't function
• Disabling functional cookies means you'll need to reset preferences each visit
  • Language and accessibility options won't be remembered
  • Course progress tracking may not work across devices
• Turning off analytics cookies limits our ability to improve the platform
  • We won't know which features need refinement
  • Content recommendations become less relevant

You can manage cookies directly through your browser settings or by using our preference center when you first visit the site.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our platform come from external services we use for video hosting, analytics, and content delivery. These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern how they collect and use data.

We work with trusted providers who help us deliver a better learning experience. For instance, our video player might set cookies to remember your playback speed or caption preferences. Analytics tools help us understand overall patterns without identifying individual users.

Third-party cookies we commonly use include:

• Video platform cookies for streaming course lectures and demonstrations
• Analytics services that provide aggregated usage statistics
• Content delivery networks that speed up page loading across different regions
