Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 15, 2025
At advancefilenode.com, we believe in being upfront about how we track and store information when you visit our site. This policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, and what choices you have.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you browse websites. They help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our content, and improve your overall experience with our financial analysis education platform.
Manage Your Cookie Preferences
Important: Essential cookies required for basic site functionality cannot be disabled. These include session management, security features, and core navigation elements. However, you can reject all tracking, analytics, and marketing cookies using the button above.
What Are Cookies and How Do We Use Them?
When you access advancefilenode.com, we place several types of tracking technologies on your device. Some are necessary for the site to work properly. Others help us understand which content resonates with learners interested in financial analysis basics.
We track things like which learning modules get the most attention, how long visitors spend reading specific articles, and what paths people take through our educational content. This information helps us create better resources for anyone wanting to understand financial concepts.
Why Tracking Matters for Education
Understanding user behavior lets us improve our educational approach. If we notice people dropping off halfway through a tutorial on balance sheets, that signals we need to simplify the content or break it into smaller pieces. When certain topics get repeatedly searched, we know to create more resources in that area.
Essential Cookies
These keep the site running. They remember your login state, maintain security protocols, and ensure you can navigate between pages without issues. Without these, advancefilenode.com simply wouldn't function properly. These cannot be disabled.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices – things like language preferences, display settings, or which learning modules you've bookmarked. They make returning to the site more convenient by preserving your personalized experience.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to see how visitors interact with our content. Which pages get the most views? Where do people spend their time? What content gets shared most often? This data drives our content development decisions.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across different websites to show you relevant educational content and announcements. They help us reach people interested in financial education with information about new courses or updated materials.
Specific Cookies We Use
Here's a breakdown of the actual tracking mechanisms on advancefilenode.com. We've organized this by category so you know exactly what's happening when you visit our site.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| session_id | Maintains your login session and security tokens | Session | Essential |
| user_preferences | Stores your display settings and learning preferences | 1 year | Functional |

Data Retention: We keep analytical data for up to 26 months. After that period, aggregated statistics may be retained, but individual user identifiers are deleted. You can request deletion of your specific tracking data at any time by contacting us.
Taking Control of Your Data
You have several options for managing how we track your activity on advancefilenode.com. The easiest method is using the rejection button at the top of this page, which will remove all non-essential cookies and signal to our systems that you don't want to be tracked.
Browser-Level Controls
Every modern browser gives you tools to manage cookies. Here's how different approaches work:
- Block all third-party cookies while allowing first-party ones (this stops cross-site tracking while keeping site functionality intact)
- Delete cookies after each browsing session (your browser clears everything when you close it)
- Manually review and remove specific cookies through your browser's settings panel
- Use private or incognito browsing mode (though this limits some features on our site)
The exact steps vary by browser. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge all have different menu structures for cookie management. Check your browser's help documentation for specific instructions.
What Happens When You Reject Cookies
If you decline non-essential tracking, you'll still be able to access all educational content on advancefilenode.com. You can read articles, view tutorials, and explore learning resources without any analytics cookies.
However, some convenience features won't work. The site won't remember your progress through courses. Your display preferences will reset each visit. And we won't be able to recommend related content based on what you've previously read.
Third-Party Services: We use Google Analytics for site statistics and may integrate other educational tools that set their own cookies. When you use advancefilenode.com, you're also subject to these third-party privacy policies. We've chosen partners carefully, but you should review their data practices independently.
Mobile Apps and Other Platforms
While advancefilenode.com primarily operates as a web platform, any future mobile applications or desktop tools we develop will use similar tracking mechanisms. Mobile apps typically use device identifiers and in-app analytics rather than traditional browser cookies, but the principles remain the same.
If we launch mobile applications for iOS or Android, we'll update this policy with specific information about how those platforms handle data tracking. You'll have similar control options through your device settings.
Updates and Changes
We review this cookie policy periodically and update it when we add new tracking technologies or change how we use data. Significant changes will be announced through a notice on our homepage or via email if you're a registered user.
The date at the top of this page shows when we last revised the policy. We recommend checking back occasionally if you're concerned about data privacy practices.
For users in the Thailand market, we comply with local data protection regulations while maintaining our educational mission. Our Bangkok office handles regional inquiries about data practices and can address specific concerns about how your information is used.
