Cookie Policy

Effective Date: January 2025

At velorinthas, we believe in being upfront about how we collect and use data when you visit velorinthas.com. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. We're not here to hide anything in legal jargon – just straightforward information about what happens when you browse our site.

What Are Cookies Anyway?

Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you visit websites. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about your visit – like your preferences, login status, or items you've added to a cart.

They're not programs and can't carry viruses. Most of them are actually pretty boring from a technical standpoint. But they do serve important functions that make your browsing experience smoother and help us understand how people use our cash flow management tools.

Types of Tracking We Use

Essential Cookies

These keep the site functioning properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access secure areas. We can't really turn these off without breaking the site.

Functional Cookies

These remember your choices – like language preferences or region settings. They make your experience more personalized without tracking everything you do across the internet.

Analytical Cookies

We use these to understand how visitors interact with our site. Which pages get the most attention? Where do people get stuck? This helps us improve our cash flow management resources.

Marketing Cookies

These track your activity across websites to build a profile of your interests. We use them sparingly and only to show you relevant information about our services when you're browsing elsewhere.

What Information Gets Collected

  • Your IP address and general location (usually just city-level, not your exact address)
  • Browser type and version you're using
  • Pages you visit on our site and how long you spend on each
  • Where you came from before landing on velorinthas.com
  • Device information like screen size and operating system
  • Interaction patterns with forms and educational resources
  • Time and date of your visits

We don't collect sensitive personal information through cookies. Things like your name, email, or financial details only get stored if you actively provide them through our contact forms – and that's handled separately with proper security measures.

Why We Track This Information

Here's the honest truth: tracking helps us run a better website for Australian businesses looking to improve their cash flow management. When we see that dozens of people are leaving a particular page quickly, that tells us something's not working. Maybe the content is confusing, or the page loads too slowly.

We also use this data to understand what topics matter most to our visitors. If everyone's reading about invoice management but ignoring expense tracking, that guides what content we create next. It's basically a feedback loop that doesn't require you to fill out surveys.

And yeah, some of this helps with marketing. When you visit our site and then see a velorinthas ad elsewhere, that's not a coincidence. But we're not following you around the entire internet – just showing our services to people who've already expressed interest by visiting us.

Taking Control of Your Data

You're not stuck with our cookies if you don't want them. Every modern browser gives you control over what tracking technologies you accept. The exact steps vary, but here's the general approach:

  1. Open your browser settings (usually under a menu icon in the top corner)
  2. Look for Privacy, Security, or Cookies sections
  3. Choose whether to block all cookies, only third-party cookies, or manage site-by-site
  4. Some browsers offer "Do Not Track" requests you can enable

Just know that blocking all cookies will affect how our site works. You might have to log in repeatedly or reset your preferences every visit. It's a trade-off between privacy and convenience – and that choice is entirely yours to make.

How Long We Keep This Data

Session Cookies

These disappear as soon as you close your browser. They're temporary by design and only exist during your active visit to our site.

Persistent Cookies

These stick around for a set period – anywhere from a few days to a couple of years. We regularly review and clean up old cookies that are no longer serving a purpose.

Our analytical data gets aggregated and anonymized after a reasonable period. We don't need to know that "John from Brisbane" visited us in March 2024 – we just need patterns and trends that help us improve the site for everyone.

Third-Party Services

Some cookies on our site come from external services we use – like analytics platforms or content delivery networks. These companies have their own privacy policies, and while we choose partners carefully, you should know they're collecting data independently of us.

Updates to This Policy

Technology changes. Regulations evolve. Our tracking practices might shift over time as we add new features or respond to privacy legislation. When we make significant changes to this policy, we'll update the effective date at the top and may notify you through the website.

We won't fundamentally change how we handle your data without giving you a heads up. And if new regulations give you additional rights regarding your data, we'll respect those without you having to ask.

Questions or Concerns?

If something in this policy doesn't make sense, or you have specific questions about how we're tracking your visit, reach out to us. We'd rather answer questions than leave you uncertain about your privacy.
