Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 2025
This policy explains how texarwexon uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on texarwexon.com. We believe in being transparent about the data we collect and how it helps us protect you from financial fraud.
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you visit our site. They help us recognize you, remember your preferences, and keep your account secure. But there's more to it than just storing information.
What Are Cookies and Why Do We Use Them?
When you visit our site, we place small data files on your computer or mobile device. These files work behind the scenes to make your experience smoother and safer.
Think of cookies as digital bookmarks. They remember where you've been on our site and what you were doing. This might sound simple, but it's actually quite useful when you're learning about fraud prevention techniques or tracking your progress through our educational materials.
How Tracking Technologies Work
Cookies store information locally on your device. Each time you return to our site, your browser sends these cookies back to us. This lets us recognize you without requiring constant login prompts or forcing you to reconfigure your settings every single visit.
We also use web beacons and pixel tags. These are tiny, invisible images embedded in our pages. They help us understand which sections of our site get the most attention and which educational resources people find most valuable.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site functioning. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or access secure areas. They're necessary for basic site operation and can't be disabled.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices, like language preferences or display settings. They make your experience more personalized without tracking your behavior across other sites.
Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our content. They tell us which fraud prevention topics generate the most interest and where people might be getting stuck in our learning materials.
Security Cookies
These help us detect suspicious activity and protect your account from unauthorized access. They're particularly important for a financial fraud prevention service.
Each type serves a specific purpose. The essential ones keep everything running. The functional ones make things convenient. The analytical ones help us improve. And the security ones keep you safe.
How Cookies Enhance Your Experience
Here's a practical example. Say you're working through our educational program on identifying phishing attempts. You complete Module 2 and take a break. When you return the next day, functional cookies remember exactly where you left off.
Without cookies, you'd have to manually navigate back to that module every time. You might lose track of which lessons you've completed. The site wouldn't remember your preference for viewing content in a specific format.
Real Benefits You'll Notice
Faster page loads because we remember your settings. Personalized content recommendations based on what you've already studied. Better security monitoring that flags unusual login patterns. More relevant educational resources that match your learning pace.
These aren't abstract benefits. You'll experience them every time you use the site.
Data Retention and Cookie Lifespan
Different cookies last for different periods. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. They're temporary and only exist during your current visit.
Persistent cookies stick around longer. Some last for days, others for months. We set retention periods based on what each cookie needs to accomplish. Security cookies might persist for 90 days to track patterns over time. Preference cookies might last a year so you don't have to keep resetting your choices.
You can clear cookies anytime through your browser settings. This gives you complete control over what data remains on your device.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for controlling cookies. Most browsers let you block all cookies, accept only certain types, or receive notifications before cookies are stored.
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might limit site functionality. Essential cookies need to run for the site to work properly. But you can absolutely block analytical or marketing cookies if you prefer.
Third-Party Cookies
Sometimes other organizations place cookies on your device through our site. This typically happens when we embed content from external sources or use third-party analytics tools.
We carefully select which third parties can operate on our site. Each one must meet our standards for data protection and user privacy. We don't allow random tracking or data collection by organizations we haven't vetted.
Third-party cookies follow the same rules as ours regarding retention and usage. If you block third-party cookies in your browser, you might not be able to view embedded videos or interactive content from external providers.
Updates to This Policy
We review this policy regularly and update it when our cookie usage changes. Major updates get announced through our site, but minor clarifications might happen without notification.
The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page shows when we made the most recent changes. Check back periodically if you want to stay informed about our data practices.
If we make significant changes to how we use cookies, we'll notify you through email or a prominent site announcement before those changes take effect.
