Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 2025
At Reboot Advances, we believe in being straightforward about how we collect and use information when you visit rebootadvances.com. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have.
Cookies help us understand how people interact with our expense tracking platform. They're small text files stored on your device when you browse our site. We don't use them to identify you personally, but they do help us improve your experience and understand what's working (and what isn't).
What Are Cookies Exactly?
Think of cookies as digital bookmarks. When you visit our site, your browser saves small bits of data that help us remember your preferences and understand how you navigate through our content.
These files sit in your browser's storage and contain simple information like session identifiers, language preferences, or anonymized usage patterns. They can't access other files on your device or collect personal information beyond what you explicitly provide.
Most modern websites use them because, honestly, they make the web work better. Without cookies, you'd need to re-enter your preferences every single time you visit a page.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site functional. They handle things like remembering your session as you move between pages, maintaining security settings, and ensuring forms work properly. Without these, the site wouldn't function correctly.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences. For example, if you've adjusted display settings or selected a specific view for your expense tracking dashboard, these cookies save those preferences for your next visit.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our site. They show us which pages get the most traffic, where people spend time, and where they might be getting stuck. All data is aggregated and anonymized.
Performance Cookies
These help us monitor site speed and identify technical issues. If a page loads slowly or a feature isn't working properly in certain browsers, performance cookies help us spot and fix those problems.
How We Actually Use This Information
Here's what happens behind the scenes. When you browse our expense tracking resources or explore our learning materials, cookies help us see patterns.
Understanding User Behavior
We track which educational content gets the most engagement. If we notice that articles about budget planning in Thailand's market context get significantly more views than other topics, that tells us what matters to our audience. We can then create more of what you actually find useful.
Technical Improvements
Analytics show us technical pain points. Maybe people using mobile devices in Bangkok experience slower load times during peak hours. That insight helps us optimize server performance for different regions and times of day.
Content Optimization
If users consistently leave a particular page after just a few seconds, something's not working. Either the content doesn't match what they expected, or it's not presented clearly enough. Cookies help us identify these issues so we can fix them.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control. Every major browser lets you manage or block cookies entirely. Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies might break some site functionality, but you can definitely limit analytics and performance tracking if you prefer.
Chrome
Go to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Site Settings. Under Cookies, you can block third-party cookies or clear existing ones.
Firefox
Open Settings, select Privacy and Security from the sidebar. Under Enhanced Tracking Protection, you can choose Standard, Strict, or Custom blocking levels.
Safari
In Preferences, click Privacy. You can block all cookies or just cross-site tracking. Safari also offers intelligent tracking prevention by default.
Edge
Navigate to Settings, then Cookies and Site Permissions. You can block third-party cookies, clear data, or manage exceptions for specific sites.
Most mobile browsers offer similar controls in their settings menus. The exact location varies, but look for Privacy or Site Settings options.
Third-Party Services
We use a few external tools for analytics and performance monitoring. These services may set their own cookies when you visit our site.
For example, if we're using analytics software to track page views, that provider might place a cookie to help distinguish unique visitors from repeat visitors. We choose providers carefully and only work with those who respect user privacy and comply with data protection standards.
You can typically opt out of third-party analytics through browser extensions or the service provider's own opt-out tools. Many analytics platforms offer browser plugins specifically for this purpose.
How Long We Keep Cookie Data
Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. They're temporary by nature and exist only during your current visit.
Persistent cookies stick around longer, anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of years. We set expiration dates based on how long the information remains useful. Preference cookies might last a year since you probably want your settings to persist. Analytics cookies typically expire after 90 days to 2 years depending on the specific metric being tracked.
You can clear cookies manually anytime through your browser settings, which immediately deletes all stored data regardless of expiration dates.
Your Rights and Choices
Beyond browser controls, you have broader rights regarding your data. You can request information about what data we've collected through cookies. You can ask us to delete that data. You can opt out of analytics tracking entirely.
- Request access to any personal data we've collected through cookies
- Ask for correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your data from our systems
- Opt out of analytics and performance tracking
- Withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time
- File a complaint if you believe we're mishandling your information
These rights are particularly strong under data protection regulations. If you're browsing from a jurisdiction with specific privacy laws, those protections apply to you regardless of where our servers are located.
Updates to This Policy
We review this policy regularly and update it when our practices change or when legal requirements evolve. When we make significant changes, we'll update the date at the top and may notify active users through email or site notifications. Check back occasionally to stay informed about how we're handling cookies and tracking.
Cookie Security
We take reasonable precautions to protect cookie data from unauthorized access. Sensitive cookies are encrypted and transmitted over secure connections. We don't store personally identifiable information in cookies unless absolutely necessary for functionality.
That said, no system is completely foolproof. If you're accessing our site from a public computer or shared device, remember to log out and clear cookies when you're done. Public devices can retain cookie data that might be accessible to the next user.
