Policy on How We Use Website Data

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about you – like your preferences, login status, or items in your shopping cart. At harbororchidcopper.xyz, we use various tracking technologies to improve your learning journey and understand how our drawing fundamentals platform serves its community.

Beyond traditional cookies, we also employ web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies. These tools work together to create a more personalized experience while helping us improve our educational content and platform functionality. Some of these technologies are essential for basic site operation, while others enhance your experience or help us analyze usage patterns.

You can also control cookies via your browser settings. Most modern browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies from individual sites. However, turning off essential cookies may cause some parts of our drawing platform to stop working properly.

As you learn to draw, tracking helps us see which techniques resonate with various learners. For example, if many students spend extra time on our shading tutorials, we know to create more content in that area. If learners frequently revisit our color theory lessons, we can expand those materials.

Analytics also help us identify when learners might be struggling. If we notice users getting stuck at a particular lesson, we can add additional explanations or alternative teaching approaches. This data-driven approach allows us to continuously refine our educational content based on real student behavior rather than guesswork.

Different kinds of tracking data persist for varying durations. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies might stay for months or years depending on their purpose. We regularly review and purge outdated tracking data that no longer aids in improving your learning experience.

You retain control over your data relationship with HarborOrchidCopper. In addition to managing cookies, you can request details about the data we've collected, request corrections to any inaccuracies, or ask for deletion of your tracking history. We prioritize transparency and empower you to manage your digital footprint on our platform.
