What Are Cookies and How We Use Them

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. At Arcoventhira, we use various types of cookies and similar tracking technologies to make your financial planning journey smoother and more personalized.

Think of cookies as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember your preferences. When you're working on your financial milestone planning, cookies help us save your progress, remember your preferred currency display, and keep you logged in securely.

• Essential Cookies

  These cookies are necessary for our website to function properly. They enable basic features like page navigation, secure areas access, and form submissions. We cannot provide our services without these cookies, so they cannot be disabled.

• Functional Cookies

  These enhance your experience by remembering your choices and preferences. They might remember your username, language preference, or the region you're in, allowing us to provide more personalized features.

• Analytics Cookies

  We use these to understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve our financial planning tools and identify which features are most valuable to our users.

• Marketing Cookies

  These cookies track your browsing habits to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your financial interests. They also help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

Data Retention and Storage

Different types of cookies have different lifespans. Some exist only for your current browsing session, while others might stay on your device for months or years to provide ongoing functionality.

We regularly review and delete outdated cookie data as part of our commitment to data minimization. Personal information collected through cookies is stored securely and processed in accordance with Australian Privacy Principles.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have complete control over how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer.

Keep in mind that disabling cookies may affect your ability to use certain features of our website. For example, you might need to re-enter your financial planning data each time you visit, or certain calculators might not save your progress.

Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

Arcoventhira partners with carefully selected third-party services to provide you with the best possible financial planning experience. These partners may also use cookies when you interact with our website.

Our analytics provider helps us understand which features are most helpful to users working toward their financial milestones. Payment processors use cookies to secure transaction data when you upgrade to premium features. Customer support tools use cookies to maintain context during your conversations with our team.

We never sell your personal information to third parties. Any data sharing is strictly limited to what's necessary to provide our services, and all partners must meet our strict data protection standards.

Some third-party cookies might track your activity across multiple websites. If you prefer to limit this cross-site tracking, most modern browsers offer settings to prevent it, or you can use browser extensions designed for privacy protection.

Updates and Policy Changes

We periodically update this cookie policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify active users through email or by displaying a notice when you next visit our website.

Minor updates, such as clarifications or formatting improvements, may be made without special notification. We recommend reviewing this policy occasionally to stay informed about how we use cookies and protect your privacy.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page shows when the most recent changes were made. Previous versions of this policy are available upon request if you need to review historical practices.
