How Apollos-perspective Finance Academy uses cookies and similar technologies.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember user preferences and provide information to site owners.

The term “cookies” in this Policy also includes similar technologies such as pixels, local storage or scripts that can perform similar functions. On Apollos-perspective.com we focus on using cookies in a simple, transparent way and avoid unnecessarily intrusive tracking.

2. First-party and third-party cookies

Cookies placed by Apollos-perspective Finance Academy are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by organisations other than us are called third-party cookies.

Third-party cookies may be used for analytics, security or embedded content (for example, fonts or icons). When we use third-party services that place cookies, we aim to work with providers that support compliance with European data protection rules.

3. Types of cookies we use

Cookies on our site can be grouped into the following categories:

• Strictly necessary cookies – required for the basic functioning of the site, such as security, loading pages and remembering your cookie choices. These cookies do not store information that can be used for marketing.
• Functional cookies – help remember your preferences (for example, language choices or previously viewed sections) and improve usability.
• Analytics / performance cookies – help us understand how visitors use the site, which pages are most visited and how long people stay, so we can improve our content. We use aggregated, non-sensitive insights rather than detailed behavioural profiles.
• Optional cookies – in the future, if we add optional integrations (for example embedded videos or external tools), those may set their own cookies. You will be informed via the cookie banner if this requires your consent.

We do not intentionally use cookies for aggressive advertising or to build marketing profiles across external sites.

4. Example purposes of cookies on Apollos-perspective.com

Depending on how you interact with the site, cookies may be used for purposes such as:

• Remembering that you have seen and responded to the cookie banner.
• Measuring how many visitors read specific sections of our program description.
• Helping us detect repeated failed requests or unusual traffic that may indicate security issues.

The exact list of cookies and retention periods may change as we refine the site. We review our setup periodically to avoid keeping unnecessary cookies.

5. How long cookies stay on your device

Cookies may be stored on your device for different lengths of time:

• Session cookies – exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it.
• Persistent cookies – remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them, and help us remember your preferences across visits.

We try to keep retention periods reasonable and aligned with the purpose of each cookie. For example, a cookie remembering your cookie preferences may need a longer lifetime to avoid showing you the same banner on every visit.
