Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about your visit. At Uexton, we use several types of tracking technologies to make your seasonal cooking education experience more personalized and effective.

Beyond traditional cookies, we also employ web beacons, local storage, and session tokens. These tools help us understand which seasonal recipes interest you most, track your learning progress through our cooking modules, and remember your dietary preferences between visits.

Think of cookies as digital bookmarks that help our website remember you're more interested in autumn comfort foods than summer salads, or that you prefer gluten-free alternatives when exploring seasonal ingredients.

Our tracking technologies work behind the scenes to create a more intuitive learning environment. When you return to explore winter warming spices after previously browsing autumn preservation techniques, we can suggest related content that builds on your existing knowledge.

We also use this data to identify common learning patterns. If we notice students often struggle with pastry techniques in our autumn baking modules, we can develop additional support materials or adjust our teaching approach.

• Remembering where you left off in multi-part seasonal cooking lessons
• Suggesting complementary techniques based on recipes you've explored
• Adjusting content difficulty based on your demonstrated skill level
• Personalizing seasonal ingredient recommendations for your region
• Streamlining the enrollment process for future seasonal cooking programs
• Providing relevant cooking tips during different times of the year

We keep different types of data for varying periods. Essential cookies remain only during your browsing session, while preference cookies might persist for up to two years so we remember your dietary restrictions and favorite seasonal ingredients.

Learning progress data is retained longer - typically three years - because students often return to review techniques they learned in previous seasons. Marketing data is refreshed every 12 months to ensure relevance.

You maintain full control over this data. Besides browser settings, you can contact us directly to request deletion of your learning history, preference data, or any tracking information we've collected during your visits to our seasonal cooking resources.

We work with selected partners who help us understand how our seasonal cooking content performs and reaches people interested in culinary education. These include analytics providers who help us see which recipes generate most engagement, and occasionally advertising networks that help us share information about our programs with relevant audiences.

Our video hosting service tracks which seasonal cooking demonstrations are most watched and where viewers typically pause or replay sections. This helps us identify which techniques need clearer explanation or additional camera angles.

All our partners are required to handle data responsibly and only use it for purposes directly related to improving educational content and website functionality. We don't share personal information with partners unless you've specifically enrolled in our programs.
