Understanding how selvarinoz uses cookies and tracking technologies to enhance your experience
At selvarinoz, we believe in complete transparency about how our website collects and uses information. This policy explains our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies on selvarinoz.com. We want you to understand exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control these preferences. Your privacy matters to us, and we're committed to giving you the tools to make informed decisions about your online experience.
What Are Cookies and How Do They Work?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help websites remember information about your visit. When you return to our site, these cookies allow us to recognise your browser and provide a more personalised experience.
We also use similar tracking technologies like web beacons, pixels, and local storage. These work alongside cookies to help us understand how visitors interact with our content and services.
Types of Tracking We Use
We categorise our tracking technologies based on their purpose and functionality. Each type serves a specific role in delivering and improving our services.
| Category | Purpose | Duration | Can Be Disabled |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Core website functionality and security | Session or up to 1 year | No - Required for operation |
| Functional | Remember your preferences and settings | Up to 2 years | Yes |
| Analytical | Understand website usage and performance | Up to 26 months | Yes |
| Marketing | Deliver relevant content and measure campaigns | Up to 13 months | Yes |
Essential Cookies We Cannot Disable
Some cookies are absolutely necessary for selvarinoz.com to function properly. These essential cookies enable core features like secure login, form submissions, and basic navigation. Without them, you wouldn't be able to use fundamental parts of our website.
Why These Cookies Matter
Essential cookies protect your data and ensure our website works reliably. They're the digital equivalent of basic infrastructure - like having lights and doors that work in a building. We only use the minimum necessary for core functionality.
How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
When you allow optional tracking, we can provide a much more tailored and useful experience. Here's how different types of tracking actually benefit you as a visitor:
For instance, our analytics show us that visitors spending time on our business diversification resources often return to read related articles. This insight helps us recommend similar content that you might find valuable, rather than showing irrelevant information.
Data Retention and Your Control Options
We don't keep tracking data indefinitely. Different types of information have different retention periods based on their purpose and legal requirements:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Website analytics | 26 months | Industry standard for trend analysis |
| Marketing data | 13 months | Campaign effectiveness measurement |
| Functional preferences | 2 years | Remember your settings between visits |
| Security logs | 90 days | Fraud prevention and investigation |
You have several options for controlling how we track your visits. Most people find the default settings work well, but we want you to have choice over your privacy level.
Managing Your Tracking Preferences
You can control cookie and tracking preferences through several methods. Each browser handles this slightly differently, but the core options remain consistent.
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies may affect website functionality. We recommend allowing essential cookies while customising preferences for analytical and marketing tracking based on your comfort level.
Third-Party Services and Partners
selvarinoz works with trusted third-party services to provide certain website features and analytics. These partners may place their own cookies when you visit our site.
Partner Privacy Controls
Each third-party service has its own privacy policy and opt-out mechanisms. We only work with partners who meet Australian privacy standards and provide clear user control options.
