Cookies, what they are and why we use them.
Minimal, purposeful, and never used for advertising. Here's the full picture.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies help sites remember things: your login session, your preferences, which pages you visited. They're widely used and generally harmless.
Essential cookies
These keep the site working. They handle your login session, shopping cart, and security tokens. You can't opt out of these. Without them, the platform doesn't function. No personal data is shared with third parties via these cookies.
Analytics cookies
We use first-party analytics to understand how people use Simulated Sphere Innovations (SSI): which courses are popular, where users drop off, how fast pages load. This data is aggregated and anonymised. We don't use Google Analytics. We don't track you across other sites.
Preference cookies
These remember things like your chosen theme, video playback speed, or notification settings so you don't have to set them every visit. They're stored locally on your device and aren't sent to third parties.
What we don't do
- We don't use advertising or tracking cookies
- We don't sell cookie data to data brokers
- We don't embed third-party ad scripts
- We don't fingerprint your browser
