Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 2025
This policy explains how Xretech uses tracking technologies on our website. We believe in being upfront about data collection. When you visit xretech.vip, certain tools help us understand how people interact with our content and improve your experience. Think of it like a shopkeeper noticing which aisles customers visit most often – except digital and with your consent.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you browse websites. They're not programs and can't carry viruses. They just remember things like your preferences or login status.
Some cookies disappear when you close your browser (session cookies), while others stick around longer (persistent cookies). We use both types depending on what they need to do for you.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Operations
These keep the site functioning. Without them, basic features like secure page navigation and form submissions wouldn't work. You can't really turn these off if you want to use the website properly.
What they do:
- Maintain secure connections during your session
- Remember items in contact forms as you fill them out
- Enable basic navigation between pages
Functional Features
These remember your choices and preferences. Maybe you adjusted text size or chose a specific language setting – functional cookies store that information so you don't have to reset everything each visit.
Examples include:
- Storing your preferred reading settings
- Remembering location details for relevant content
- Keeping track of whether you've seen certain announcements
Analytics and Performance
We track how visitors use our site – which pages get the most attention, where people spend time, what content resonates. This data helps us understand what's working and what needs improvement. All information is aggregated and anonymous.
We measure:
- Page views and time spent on different sections
- Navigation patterns and popular content areas
- Technical performance and load times
- General visitor demographics (region, device type)
Marketing and Outreach
These help us show relevant content and understand which marketing efforts bring people to our site. We want to reach folks interested in long-term investment thinking – not bombard random internet users with irrelevant ads.
Used for:
- Displaying relevant educational content based on interests
- Tracking which channels bring quality visitors
- Limiting how often you see the same message
- Measuring campaign effectiveness
Managing Your Preferences
You control how cookies work on your device through your browser settings. Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies. But fair warning – blocking everything might break certain site features or make your experience less smooth.
Chrome
Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
Firefox
Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Safari
Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Edge
Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage cookies
Most browsers also offer "Do Not Track" signals. We respect these preferences where technically feasible. Mobile devices have their own privacy settings in system preferences – check your device documentation for specifics.
Third-Party Services
Some cookies come from external services we use – analytics platforms, content delivery networks, that sort of thing. These partners have their own privacy policies. We've vetted them carefully, but you should know they're collecting data too.
We don't have direct control over third-party cookies. If you want to opt out of specific tracking services, check their individual websites for opt-out mechanisms. Many analytics providers offer browser extensions that block their tracking across all sites.
How Long Data Sticks Around
Session cookies vanish when you close your browser. Persistent cookies have expiration dates ranging from a few weeks to a couple years, depending on their purpose. Analytics cookies typically last 24 months. Marketing cookies might persist for 12-18 months. We regularly review and clean up old tracking data.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes. Our practices might evolve. We'll update this policy when needed and post the revision date at the top. Significant changes will be announced more prominently on our site.
We're not going to email everyone about minor wording tweaks, but substantial shifts in how we track or use data – those get proper notification through our regular communication channels.
