What Are Tracking Technologies?

When you browse our website, small pieces of data get stored on your device. Most people call these "cookies," but there's actually a range of different technologies involved.

Think of them as digital notepads. They help our site remember things about your visit—like whether you're logged in, what settings you prefer, or which pages you've looked at. Some stick around for months, others disappear when you close your browser.

We also use web beacons (tiny invisible images), local storage, and similar tools. They all serve the same basic purpose: making your experience smoother and helping us understand how people interact with our financial analysis tools.

Types of Tracking We Use

Not all tracking serves the same purpose. Here's how we categorize what we collect:

How We Actually Use This Information

The data we collect serves pretty specific purposes. Nothing gets used for reasons beyond what's listed here.

Technical Necessities

Session management, security verification, form submission handling—the basics that any modern website needs to function. When you upload financial statements for analysis, tracking data ensures that information gets processed securely and returned to the right session.

User Experience Improvements

We watch how people move through the solvency analysis workflow. If everyone's getting stuck at the same step, that's a sign we need clearer instructions. When a particular calculator gets ignored, maybe it's not solving a real problem or the interface is confusing.

Content Optimization

Our educational content only helps if people actually read it. Analytics show us which explainer articles about debt ratios get bookmarked, which tutorial videos get watched all the way through, and which glossary terms people look up most often.

System Performance

We monitor calculation speeds, page load times, and error rates. Financial analysis tools need to work reliably—nobody wants a browser crash in the middle of preparing a solvency report.

What Gets Stored and For How Long

When the retention period expires, data either gets deleted automatically or stripped of identifying information and kept only as anonymized statistics.

Third-Party Services We Work With

Some tracking on our site comes from external services we've integrated. We're selective about who we work with, but you should know they exist.

We don't share your financial data or analysis results with any third party. The tracking discussed here relates only to website usage patterns, not the proprietary business information you're analyzing.

Managing Your Tracking Preferences

You've got several options for controlling what gets tracked. Some are straightforward, others require a bit more technical adjustment.

Browser-Level Controls

Every modern browser lets you block or delete tracking data. The exact steps vary, but the concept's the same across all of them.

Keep in mind that blocking all tracking will affect how our site works. You might have to log in more frequently, your preferences won't stick between sessions, and some analysis features may not function properly.

Privacy-Focused Browsing

Most browsers offer private or incognito modes that limit tracking. These modes don't save browsing history, form data, or most types of tracking data after you close the window.

Browser extensions like Privacy Badger or uBlock Origin can block third-party trackers while allowing first-party functionality that keeps the site working.

Mobile Device Considerations

If you're accessing brexaliviora.com from a phone or tablet, tracking works slightly differently but the principles remain the same.

Mobile browsers have their own privacy settings—usually found under Settings, then Safari (iOS) or Chrome (Android). You can clear data, block third-party tracking, and manage site permissions from there.

We don't currently offer a mobile app, so all mobile access happens through your browser where standard web tracking applies.

Changes to This Policy

Technology evolves and regulations change. When we need to update how we handle tracking, we'll post the revised policy here with a new effective date at the top.

Major changes—like adding new types of tracking or working with different third-party services—will get announced through our usual communication channels. Minor clarifications or formatting updates happen without special notice.

We don't bury important changes in legal jargon. If something significant shifts, we'll explain it clearly in plain English.

Your Rights and Our Obligations

Under Australian privacy law, you have specific rights regarding how your data gets collected and used. These apply to tracking data just like they do to any other information we hold.

You can request details about what tracking data we've collected related to your usage. You can ask us to delete that data (though this might affect your ability to use certain features). You can object to specific types of processing where legitimate grounds exist.

We're required to process your data lawfully, keep it secure, and only use it for stated purposes. We can't sell your tracking data or use it in ways we haven't disclosed here.
