Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Academy of Global Education Shkola LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides fuller detail on how we handle personal data.

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — such as your preferred language or whether you are logged in — and to collect data about how the site is used. Cookies cannot execute programs or deliver viruses; they are simply a way for websites to function correctly and to improve over time.

Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage objects. Where we refer to “cookies” in this Policy, we mean all of these technologies collectively.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

Essential cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and form submission. Without them, the website cannot operate properly. Essential cookies do not require your consent and cannot be disabled through our cookie settings.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make — such as your language preference or time zone — so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit. They improve your experience but are not strictly necessary for the site to work. You may disable these through your browser settings, though some features may then behave differently.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay, and where they come from. This data is aggregated and anonymized; it does not identify individual visitors. We use this information to understand how the site performs and where it can be improved. Analytics cookies are only active if you have consented.

Marketing cookies

Marketing cookies track your activity across websites to help us deliver advertising that is relevant to your interests and to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. These cookies may be set by third-party advertising platforms. They are only placed on your device if you have explicitly consented. You may withdraw consent at any time through your browser settings or our cookie preference tool.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third parties whose services we use. These may include payment processing (Stripe), learning platform functionality (Buzz), and web analytics or advertising tools. Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of those providers, not by this Policy. We encourage you to review the relevant third-party policies if you have questions about their data practices.

We do not control third-party cookies and are not responsible for their content or accuracy. However, we only permit third parties to place cookies on our site where we have a legitimate reason to do so and where doing so is consistent with our Privacy Policy.

4. Cookie Duration

Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:

  • Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are typically used to maintain your state during a single visit — for example, keeping you logged in while you navigate between pages.
  • Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after your visit — from a few days to several years, depending on the cookie. They are used for purposes such as remembering your preferences between visits or tracking returning visitors for analytics.

5. How to Manage Cookies

You have several ways to control the cookies placed on your device:

Browser settings

All major browsers allow you to view, manage, block, and delete cookies through their settings. The steps vary by browser — you can find instructions for the most common browsers here:

Please note that blocking or deleting essential cookies will affect the functionality of our website. Non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing) can be disabled without affecting core site features.

Opt-out tools

You can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies through the Digital Advertising Alliance or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance. These tools do not block all advertising — they prevent participating companies from using your data for targeted advertising specifically.

6. Cookies and Children

Our website is used by parents and guardians who enroll minor students. We do not knowingly use marketing or tracking cookies in connection with users we have reason to believe are under 13. If you believe a child has been exposed to non-essential cookies without appropriate consent, please contact us at hello@shkolaonline.com.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
