Last Updated: March 15, 2025

What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?

When you visit zephynix.com, we use various tracking technologies to enhance your experience and improve our services. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites remember your preferences and activities. But that's just one piece of the puzzle.

We also employ web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies that work alongside cookies to provide you with a seamless browsing experience. These tools help us understand how you interact with our financial education content, which pages you find most valuable, and how we can better serve your learning needs.

Why This Matters to You

Understanding our tracking practices helps you make informed decisions about your privacy. We believe transparency builds trust, especially when dealing with financial education and sensitive business information.

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

Our tracking technologies aren't just about collecting data—they're about creating a better learning environment for South African entrepreneurs and business owners. Here's how they specifically benefit you:

Personalized Learning Path

We track which financial topics interest you most, allowing us to suggest relevant courses and resources. If you're focusing on business finance basics, we'll prioritize showing you advanced budgeting techniques and cash flow management content.

Our analytical data helps us understand common challenges faced by South African businesses, enabling us to create more targeted educational content. When we see users spending more time on certain topics, we know to expand those areas with additional resources and examples.

The tracking also helps us maintain continuity across your learning sessions. Whether you're accessing our platform from your office in Boksburg or from home, your progress and preferences travel with you, creating a seamless educational experience.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have complete control over how tracking technologies interact with your device. Here are several ways to manage your preferences:

1 Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. Look for "Privacy" or "Security" settings in your browser menu. You can set preferences for all websites or customize settings for specific sites like zephynix.com.
2 Google Analytics Opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your data from being collected by Google Analytics across all websites you visit.
3 Social Media Controls: Adjust your Facebook, LinkedIn, and other social media privacy settings to limit how these platforms track your activity across different websites.
4 Mobile Device Settings: iOS and Android devices have built-in tracking controls. Look for "Privacy" settings and adjust "Advertising" or "Ad Tracking" preferences.
Important Note: Disabling certain cookies may limit your ability to access some features of zephynix.com. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they're necessary for basic website functionality and security.

Data Retention and Your Rights

We maintain tracking data for specific periods based on the type of information and its purpose. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain for up to 24 months.

Analytics data is typically retained for 26 months, giving us enough historical information to identify trends and improve our educational content. Marketing-related tracking data is usually kept for shorter periods, typically 3-6 months, unless you've engaged with our courses or services.

Your Control Options

You can request to see what tracking data we have about you, ask us to delete specific information, or opt out of certain types of tracking entirely. As a South African business, we respect your privacy rights and will respond to requests promptly.

If you decide to delete your account or stop using our services, we'll remove your personal tracking data within 30 days. Anonymized analytical data may be retained longer for research and improvement purposes, but it won't be linked to your identity.

Third-Party Tracking

Some tracking technologies on zephynix.com are provided by third-party services. These companies have their own privacy policies and cookie practices, which we encourage you to review.

We work with reputable analytics and marketing platforms that comply with international privacy standards. However, we don't control how these third parties use the data they collect, so it's important to understand their practices as well.

When you interact with embedded content from YouTube, social media platforms, or other external services, those companies may also place tracking technologies on your device. These are subject to their respective privacy policies, not ours.

Updates to This Policy

We review and update this cookie policy regularly to reflect changes in our tracking practices and legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify active users through email or prominent website notices.

Minor updates, such as clarifications or additional examples, may be made without specific notification. We recommend checking this page periodically, especially if you have concerns about tracking technologies.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when the most recent changes were made. All updates apply to your continued use of zephynix.com after the revision date.
