Cookie Policy
Understanding how we use tracking technologies to enhance your experience on igniteflareup.com
Last Updated: January 2025 — We believe in transparency. This policy explains exactly what data we collect through cookies and why it matters for your learning experience.
What Are Cookies, Actually?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help us remember your preferences and improve how our platform works for you.
When you visit igniteflareup.com, these files store bits of information — like which language you prefer or which courses you've viewed. Nothing sinister, just practical data that makes your next visit smoother.
We use cookies to understand how people interact with our content optimization materials. This helps us figure out which tutorials are most helpful and where students might be getting stuck.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the website functional. Without them, you couldn't log in to your account or navigate between pages properly. We need these to operate, and they don't collect personal information.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices — like dark mode preferences or whether you've dismissed certain notifications. They make your experience more personalized without tracking your browsing elsewhere.
Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand which content resonates with learners. They tell us which pages get visited most and how long people spend on different tutorials. All data is aggregated and anonymous.
Performance Cookies
These help us identify technical issues. If a video takes too long to load or a form isn't submitting correctly, performance cookies help us spot and fix these problems quickly.
How Cookies Improve Your Learning
Here's what tracking actually does for you as a student on our platform:
- Remembers where you left off in multi-part tutorials so you can pick up exactly where you stopped
- Saves your progress on interactive exercises and code challenges
- Keeps you logged in between study sessions so you don't have to re-enter credentials constantly
- Suggests related content based on topics you've shown interest in
- Loads pages faster by caching certain elements from your previous visits
- Alerts us to technical problems so we can fix issues before they affect more students

Data Retention and Your Control
Most cookies we set expire automatically. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stick around longer but have defined expiration dates.
You can delete cookies anytime through your browser settings. Keep in mind that removing certain cookies might affect site functionality — you may need to log in again or reset your preferences.
We don't sell cookie data to third parties. The information we collect stays with us and exists solely to improve the educational experience on igniteflareup.com.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have complete control over cookies. Every major browser lets you block or delete them. Just know that refusing all cookies might break certain features on our site.

Most browsers also offer private or incognito modes that don't save cookies after you close the window. That's another option if you prefer not to leave traces of your browsing.
Third-Party Tracking
Some cookies on our site come from external services we use for analytics and content delivery. These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern how they handle data.
We've chosen partners carefully and only work with services that respect user privacy. But we can't control their practices entirely, so we recommend reviewing their policies if you're concerned about specific trackers.
You can opt out of many third-party tracking systems through browser extensions or privacy tools designed to block analytics scripts. We won't stop you from doing that, though it may affect how we understand site usage patterns.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy occasionally as our tracking needs change or new regulations come into effect. When we make significant changes, we'll post a notice on the homepage so you're not caught off guard.
The date at the top of this page shows when we last revised the policy. Check back periodically if you want to stay informed about how we handle cookies and tracking data.
