Last Updated: March 2025 | Effective Date: January 2025
At wolarivent, we believe in transparent communication about how we collect and process information when you visit our platform. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, why we need them, and how you can control them.
We've written this in plain language because we want you to actually understand what's happening. No legal jargon or corporate speak—just honest information about our data practices.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you visit websites. They're not programs and can't carry viruses. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about your visit.
When you return to wolarivent.com, these files help us recognize you and recall your preferences. They make your experience smoother by remembering things like your language settings or what you were looking at during your last session.
Beyond traditional cookies, we also use similar technologies like web beacons, pixels, and local storage. They all serve similar purposes—helping us understand how people interact with our platform so we can make it better.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These are the cookies that keep the site functioning. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate properly or use key features. We can't really give you a choice about these ones—they're fundamental to how the platform works.
- Session management and authentication tokens
- Security features that protect your account
- Load balancing across our servers
- Form submission data to prevent duplicate entries
Functionality Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences to personalize your experience. They're not essential, but they make using wolarivent.com much more convenient.
- Your display preferences and interface settings
- Selected filters and saved search parameters
- Volume controls and video playback settings
- Content bookmarks and progress tracking
Performance and Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our site. The data is aggregated and anonymized—we see patterns and trends, not individual behavior. This helps us identify what's working well and what needs improvement.
- Page views and time spent on different sections
- Navigation paths and user journey analysis
- Error tracking and technical performance metrics
- Device and browser information for optimization
Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These track your browsing habits to deliver relevant content and measure campaign effectiveness. They help us understand which marketing efforts resonate with our audience and avoid showing you irrelevant information.
- Tracking interaction with promotional content
- Measuring effectiveness of educational campaigns
- Limiting the frequency of promotional messages
- Understanding which channels bring visitors to our site

Certain cookies help us detect suspicious activity and protect both your account and our platform from unauthorized access or malicious behavior.
How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control. Most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. Keep in mind that blocking certain cookies might affect how well the site works for you.
Here's how to adjust settings in common browsers. The exact steps might vary slightly depending on your browser version:

How Long Do We Keep This Data?
Different cookies have different lifespans depending on their purpose. Some disappear when you close your browser, while others stick around longer to remember your preferences across visits.
- Session cookies: Deleted automatically when you close your browser
- Functional cookies: Typically retained for 6-12 months to remember your settings
- Analytics cookies: Usually kept for 12-24 months to track longer-term trends
- Marketing cookies: Generally expire after 90 days to 13 months depending on the specific purpose
You can clear cookies manually at any time through your browser settings. Just be aware that doing so will reset your preferences and you'll need to log in again.
Third-Party Services
We work with several external services that may set their own cookies when you visit wolarivent.com. These include analytics providers, content delivery networks, and educational technology partners.
While we carefully select our partners and require them to handle data responsibly, we don't directly control their cookies. Each service has its own privacy policy explaining how they collect and use information.
If you're concerned about third-party tracking, consider using browser extensions that block tracking cookies or enable "Do Not Track" settings in your browser preferences. Keep in mind that some embedded content (like videos or interactive learning modules) might not function properly if you block all third-party cookies.
