Cookie Policy
How Maxstreamflash uses cookies and tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our quantitative finance platform
What Are Cookies and How We Use Them
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. At Maxstreamflash, we use these tracking technologies to understand how users interact with our quantitative analysis and machine learning educational platform. Think of cookies as digital breadcrumbs that help us remember your preferences and improve your learning experience.
Our platform focuses on providing comprehensive education in financial modeling, algorithmic trading concepts, and quantitative research methods. The cookies we deploy help us track which educational materials resonate most with students and identify areas where we can enhance our curriculum delivery.
Types of Tracking Technologies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are absolutely necessary for our platform to function properly. They enable core website functionality like user authentication, session management, and security features. Without these cookies, you wouldn't be able to log into your student account or access your course materials.
Functional Cookies
These enhance your experience by remembering your preferences, such as your preferred programming language for code examples (Python vs R), your time zone for live webinar scheduling, and interface customizations that make learning more comfortable for you.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand how students navigate through our quantitative finance curriculum. This data helps us identify which topics need additional explanation, where students typically spend the most time, and which learning paths are most effective.
Marketing Cookies
These cookies track your browsing behavior to help us deliver relevant educational content recommendations. For instance, if you've been exploring our machine learning modules, we might suggest related workshops on algorithmic trading strategies.
Specific Cookies on Maxstreamflash
Cookie Preference Management
You have complete control over cookie usage on our platform. While essential cookies cannot be disabled (as they're required for basic functionality), you can opt out of all non-essential tracking.
Browser-Based Cookie Management
Every modern browser provides built-in tools for managing cookies. Here's how to access these controls across different browsers:
Google Chrome
Navigate to Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data. From here you can block third-party cookies or clear existing data for specific websites.
Mozilla Firefox
Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers enhanced tracking protection that blocks many marketing cookies by default.
Safari
Access Safari → Preferences → Privacy. Safari includes intelligent tracking prevention that automatically blocks cross-site tracking cookies.
Microsoft Edge
Visit Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data. Edge provides three levels of tracking prevention: Basic, Balanced, and Strict.
Data Retention and Storage
Most cookies on our platform expire automatically. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies typically last between 30 days to 2 years depending on their purpose. Analytics data is anonymized after 14 months, and marketing cookies are automatically purged after 13 months. You can manually clear cookies through your browser settings at any time, though this will reset your preferences and learning progress tracking.
Third-Party Services and Integrations
Our educational platform integrates with several third-party services that may set their own cookies. These include video hosting platforms for our lecture content, analytics services for understanding student engagement, and payment processors for course enrollment. Each of these services operates under their own privacy policies.
When you interact with embedded content like financial data visualizations or interactive coding environments, these tools may also place cookies to remember your settings and preferences within those specific applications.
Mobile App and Cookie Equivalents
While mobile applications don't use traditional cookies, our Maxstreamflash mobile app uses similar tracking technologies including device identifiers, local storage, and analytics SDKs. These serve the same fundamental purposes as web cookies: maintaining your session, remembering preferences, and helping us improve the learning experience.
Mobile tracking can be managed through your device's privacy settings, where you can limit ad tracking, reset advertising identifiers, or restrict app permissions for data collection.
