We store small data files on your device to remember your choices and improve how our site works for you. These help us understand which parts of our content are most useful. You can choose whether to allow this or not. Read our full cookie policy for details.
How We Use Tracking Technologies
Last reviewed: February 2025
Control Your Privacy Preferences
You can opt out of non-essential tracking at any time. Essential cookies needed for site functionality will remain active.
What Are Tracking Technologies?
We use small data files—commonly called cookies—to make leyoxotive.com work properly and to understand how people interact with our budget benchmarking tools. These files sit on your device and help us remember your preferences between visits.
Think of them as digital sticky notes. Some are absolutely necessary (like remembering you're logged in), while others help us improve our service or show you relevant information about financial planning resources.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site running. They handle your login sessions, remember your budget comparison settings, and make sure forms work correctly. We can't turn these off because the site wouldn't function without them.
Functional Tracking
These remember your choices—like which industries you're comparing or your preferred currency display. They make your experience more personalized without collecting identifying information about you as an individual.
Analytics Data
We track which features get used most, where people get stuck, and what resources are actually helpful. This data is aggregated, which means we're looking at patterns across all users rather than following individual people around.
Marketing Tools
These help us show relevant content and measure whether our educational materials are reaching the right audience. If you decline these, you'll still see information from us—it just won't be tailored to your interests.
Why Essential Cookies Can't Be Disabled
Our essential cookies handle authentication, security verification, and session management. Without them, you couldn't log in, your data wouldn't be secure, and the site would break mid-session. They don't track your behavior—they just keep things working.
Managing Your Browser Settings
Most browsers let you control cookies directly. Here's the honest truth: if you block all cookies, some parts of leyoxotive.com won't work. You won't be able to save comparisons, log into your account, or keep your preferences between visits.
Browser-Specific Instructions
- Chrome: Go to Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies. You can block third-party cookies while keeping first-party ones active.
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security. Their Enhanced Tracking Protection blocks most marketing trackers by default.
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy. Safari blocks third-party cookies automatically in its default configuration.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and Site Permissions. Similar options to Chrome since they share the same underlying technology.
If you're using our service regularly, we'd suggest blocking third-party cookies but allowing first-party ones. That gives you privacy from external trackers while keeping our benchmarking tools fully functional.
How Long We Keep This Data
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stick around longer—typically between 30 days and 2 years, depending on what they're doing.
Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized within 90 days. After that point, we can't connect it back to any specific user even if we wanted to. Marketing cookies usually expire after 12 months, though third-party advertising partners may have different retention periods.
Third-Party Services
We work with analytics providers and hosting services that may set their own cookies. When you use leyoxotive.com, you might see tracking from Google Analytics, content delivery networks, and email service providers.
We don't control how these third parties handle data once it reaches them. Their privacy policies govern that relationship. We've chosen partners with solid reputations, but you should read their policies if you want the complete picture.
Changes to This Policy
We'll update this page when we add new tracking tools or change how existing ones work. The date at the top shows our last review. Major changes will be announced through email to registered users, but we won't send notifications for minor clarifications or wording updates.
