Cookie Policy

At tyrkolcollective, we're committed to transparency about how we collect and use information when you visit our website at tyrkolcollective.com. This policy explains our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies that help us deliver a better budgeting experience tailored to your needs.

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you browse. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our personal budgeting platform. When you return to tyrkolcollective, these cookies help us recognize your device and provide a more personalized experience.

We use various tracking technologies beyond traditional cookies, including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage mechanisms. These tools work together to help us analyze website performance, understand user behavior patterns, and improve our budgeting tools based on real user data.

Our tracking technologies serve specific purposes that directly benefit your experience with tyrkolcollective's budgeting platform. When you create budget categories, our functional cookies remember your preferences, so you don't have to reconfigure your dashboard each time you visit.

Analytics data helps us understand which budgeting features are most valuable to our South African users. For instance, if we notice many users spending significant time on our debt management tools, we can develop more comprehensive resources in that area. This data-driven approach ensures we're building features that genuinely help people achieve their financial goals.

Marketing cookies enable us to show you relevant content based on your interests. If you frequently access our savings goal features, we might display articles about investment strategies suitable for the South African market or highlight new tools that complement your savings approach.

You have several options for controlling how cookies and tracking technologies work on your device when visiting tyrkolcollective. Most modern browsers give you granular control over cookie settings, allowing you to block specific types while keeping others active.

Keep in mind that blocking certain cookies may impact your experience with tyrkolcollective's budgeting tools. For example, functional cookies that remember your budget categories and preferences will need to be re-enabled each time you visit if you choose to block them.

Different types of data are retained for varying periods based on their purpose and legal requirements in South Africa. We follow strict data retention policies to ensure we only keep information as long as necessary for legitimate business purposes.

We regularly review our data retention practices and delete information that's no longer needed. When you delete your tyrkolcollective account, we remove your personal data according to our deletion schedule, though some anonymized analytics data may be retained for business intelligence purposes.

Some tracking technologies on tyrkolcollective are provided by third-party partners who help us deliver better services. These partners may include analytics providers, advertising networks, and financial service integrators who work with us to enhance your budgeting experience.

Third-party cookies are subject to their respective privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We carefully select partners who maintain high data protection standards and comply with South African privacy regulations. However, we cannot control how these partners use cookies on their own websites.

If you prefer to limit third-party tracking, most browsers offer settings to block third-party cookies while still allowing first-party cookies from tyrkolcollective. This approach maintains most of our website functionality while reducing external tracking.

As tyrkolcollective evolves and introduces new features, our cookie usage may change. We'll update this policy to reflect any significant changes in how we use tracking technologies. When we make substantial updates, we'll notify users through email or prominent website notices.

We recommend reviewing this policy periodically to stay informed about our data practices. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when we most recently modified the policy content.

Your continued use of tyrkolcollective after policy updates indicates acceptance of the revised terms. If you disagree with changes, you can adjust your cookie settings or contact us to discuss your concerns.
