Cookie Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
We're being straight with you about how veloronqixi.com tracks visitor activity. This isn't some dense legal document written to confuse people. We'll explain what we collect, why we do it, and how you can shut it down if you want.
When you visit our site, small text files get stored on your device. These help us remember your preferences and understand how people use our platform. Some are absolutely necessary for the site to work. Others help us improve things or show relevant content.
What Actually Are Cookies?
Think of cookies as tiny notepads your browser keeps. When you visit veloronqixi.com, we might jot down notes like "this person already agreed to terms" or "they prefer dark mode." Next time you come back, we check those notes so we don't ask you the same questions again.
They're just text. No programs run from them. They can't scan your computer or spread viruses. But they do let us recognize you across visits, which brings both convenience and privacy considerations.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the lights on. Without them, basic features break. You can't turn these off if you want to use the site properly.
- Session management so you stay logged in
- Security tokens that prevent fake form submissions
- Load balancing to direct you to working servers
- Your language and region preferences
We keep these for the duration of your visit, plus a bit longer for security checks.
Functional Cookies
These remember choices you make. They're not strictly required, but turning them off means a more annoying experience.
- Whether you've dismissed notification banners
- Your preferred view settings and filters
- Forms you've partially completed
- Recently viewed business ideas and categories
These typically last between one month and one year, depending on what they're remembering.
Analytics Cookies
We track how people move through the site so we can fix what's broken and improve what works. This data gets anonymized before we look at it.
- Which pages get visited most and where people drop off
- How long people spend reading specific content
- What device types and browsers people use
- Geographic patterns (country level, not your exact location)
Google Analytics handles most of this for us. Their cookies last up to two years.
Marketing Cookies
These build a profile of your interests so we can show relevant content. They also help us understand which marketing channels actually work.
- Which external sites referred you to us
- What business categories you've shown interest in
- Whether you've responded to our outreach campaigns
- Cross-site tracking to measure ad effectiveness
These can last up to two years. You can reject them without affecting site functionality.
Take Control Right Now
You can reject all non-essential tracking with one click. We'll remember your choice and stop loading analytics and marketing cookies. Essential cookies will still work because they have to.
Current Status: Checking preferences...
Your choice gets saved locally on your device. If you clear your browser data or switch devices, you'll need to set this preference again.
Browser-Level Controls
Every modern browser lets you manage cookies directly. This gives you more granular control than our simple reject button. You can block all cookies from all sites, or just from specific domains.
Chrome
Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies or all cookies entirely. Chrome also has a "Clear on exit" option.
Firefox
Settings → Privacy & Security → Enhanced Tracking Protection. Firefox blocks most third-party trackers by default in standard mode. Strict mode blocks even more.
Safari
Preferences → Privacy → Block all cookies. Safari already blocks most cross-site tracking by default. You can go further by blocking everything.
Edge
Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Tracking prevention. Set to Strict to block most trackers. You can also clear cookies automatically when you close the browser.
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies breaks most modern websites. Even logging into your email won't work. A balanced approach blocks third-party cookies but allows first-party ones.
How Long We Keep This Data
Different cookies have different lifespans based on what they do:
Session cookies: Disappear when you close your browser. These handle temporary things like shopping carts or form data.
Short-term cookies: Last between one week and three months. These remember preferences that might change fairly often.
Long-term cookies: Stick around for one to two years. These track patterns over time or remember settings you rarely change.
You can manually delete all cookies at any time through your browser settings. This logs you out of everything and resets all preferences, but it works immediately.
Third-Party Services We Use
We don't run all our tracking ourselves. Some tools come from external companies who set their own cookies:
Google Analytics: Tracks visitor behavior and site performance. Their cookies collect anonymized usage data that helps us understand traffic patterns. You can opt out using Google's browser plugin if you want to block this across all sites.
Social media widgets: If we embed content from platforms like LinkedIn or YouTube, those companies may set their own tracking cookies. We don't control what they collect.
When you reject non-essential cookies here, we signal to these services to disable tracking. But they might still set cookies if you interact directly with their embedded content.
Changes to This Policy
We update this document when we add new tracking tools or change how we handle data. Check the date at the top to see when we last revised it. Major changes will get announced through our newsletter and posted on the homepage.
Continued use of veloronqixi.com after updates means you accept the new terms. If you disagree with changes, reject non-essential cookies or stop using the site.
