Beyond traditional cookies, we also use other tracking technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage to understand how visitors interact with our content.

These technologies work silently in the background, collecting information that helps us improve your experience. They can remember your preferences, track which pages you find most useful, and help us understand what content resonates with our audience interested in emotional investing strategies.

The information we collect through tracking technologies serves several important purposes that directly benefit your experience on our site.

Essential cookies typically last for the duration of your session, while functional cookies that remember your preferences might be stored for several months. Analytics data is usually retained for 26 months to help us understand long-term trends in how people use our educational content.

We work with carefully selected third-party services to provide analytics, improve our content delivery, and ensure our website performs optimally. These services may set their own cookies and collect information according to their privacy policies.
