This page explains what cookies are, which ones Cycerone uses, and how you can control them. You can update your preferences at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owners.

Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services embedded on the page (third-party cookies).

2. Cookies We Use

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the platform to function. They cannot be disabled because the site would not work without them. They do not store any personally identifiable information.

Authentication token — keeps you logged in during your session (AWS Cognito, session cookie)
CSRF token — protects form submissions against cross-site request forgery (session cookie)
Cookie consent — stores your cookie preferences so we don't ask again (persistent, 12 months)

2.2 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. If you disable them, some features may not work as expected.

Language preference — remembers whether you prefer the English or Italian interface (persistent, 12 months)
Last visited content — remembers recently viewed courses so we can surface them on your dashboard (persistent, 30 days)

2.3 Analytics Cookies

We use anonymised analytics to understand how visitors use the platform. The data is aggregated and does not identify individual users.

Session analytics — tracks page views, navigation paths and time on page to help us improve content and user experience. Data is anonymised before storage (persistent, 13 months)

2.4 Marketing and Third-Party Cookies

We currently do not use advertising or retargeting cookies. If we introduce them in the future, this page will be updated and your consent will be requested again.

4. How to Manage Cookies

4.1 Via Our Cookie Banner

When you first visit Cycerone, a cookie banner allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your selection at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer of any page.

4.2 Via Your Browser

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the platform. Below are links to the cookie management pages of the most common browsers:

4.3 Opt-Out Tools

For analytics opt-out you may also use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or enable "Do Not Track" in your browser settings.

We may update this Cookies Policy if we add or remove cookies or change how we use them. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where required by law, request your consent again.
