Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 2025
At ariontalyxos, we believe in being straightforward about how we collect and use data when you visit our website. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use and why they matter for your experience on ariontalyxos.com.
We use various tracking methods to help our project budget management platform work smoothly and to understand how people interact with our site. Some of these are essential for basic functionality, while others help us improve our services over time.
What Are Tracking Technologies?
Tracking technologies are small pieces of data that websites store on your device or access when you visit. The most common type is what most people call a "cookie" — basically a text file that remembers information about your visit.
But there's more to it than just traditional cookies these days. We also use similar technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage. Each serves a specific purpose in making your experience better or helping us understand how our platform performs.
Think of these as the behind-the-scenes workers that help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand which features are actually useful. Without them, you'd have to re-enter information constantly and websites wouldn't know what's working and what needs fixing.
When you visit ariontalyxos.com, your browser and our server exchange information. Some of this information gets stored temporarily or long-term, depending on its purpose. You have control over most of these technologies through your browser settings.
Types of Tracking We Use
Not all tracking technologies do the same job. We've organized ours into four main categories based on what they actually do and why we need them.
Essential Operations
These keep the site functioning. They handle things like maintaining your session when you're logged in, remembering items in your budget calculator, and ensuring security measures work properly. Without these, core features simply wouldn't operate. You can't disable these through our settings because they're necessary for the platform to work at all.
Functional Preferences
These remember your choices so you don't have to keep making them. They store things like your preferred currency display, dashboard layout preferences, or notification settings. They make your experience more personalized without requiring you to reconfigure everything each visit.
Performance Analytics
These help us understand how people use the platform. We collect information about which features get used most, where people encounter issues, and how long certain processes take. All this data gets aggregated — we're looking at patterns across many users, not tracking individuals. This helps us decide what to improve and what's already working well.
Communication Tools
These help us show you relevant information about ariontalyxos's features and updates. They might remember if you've already seen a particular announcement or which educational resources you've accessed. They ensure we're not constantly showing you the same information you've already reviewed.
How Tracking Improves Your Experience
Let me give you some concrete examples of how this actually works in practice on our platform.
- When you create a project budget and switch to another tab, our session tracking keeps you logged in and preserves your work in progress
- If you prefer viewing costs in a specific currency format, functional tracking remembers this so every page loads with your preference
- Performance tracking shows us that most people access certain budget templates, so we prioritize improving those specific tools
- When you close a feature update notification, tracking ensures you won't see that same announcement repeatedly
- Analytics help us identify if a particular workflow causes confusion, allowing us to redesign it before more people struggle
- Session data helps us understand typical user journeys, which informs how we organize information and features
The key thing here is that we're using this data to make ariontalyxos.com work better for Australian businesses managing project budgets. We're not collecting information just for the sake of it — each piece of tracking serves a specific purpose in improving functionality or user experience.
What Data Gets Collected
Being specific about what we actually collect matters more than vague statements about "improving services." Here's what different tracking technologies capture when you use ariontalyxos.com.
| Information Type | What We Collect | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Technical Data | Browser type, device information, operating system, screen resolution | Ensures the platform displays correctly across different devices and helps us prioritize which systems to optimize for |
| Usage Patterns | Pages visited, features used, time spent on different sections, navigation paths | Shows us which features are valuable and which might need redesign or better explanation |
| Interaction Data | Button clicks, form completions, tool usage, error encounters | Helps identify where users succeed or struggle, guiding our development priorities |
| Session Information | Login status, authentication tokens, temporary workspace data | Keeps you logged in securely and preserves your work between page loads |
| Preference Settings | Display options, notification choices, saved configurations | Remembers your customizations so you don't need to reset them each visit |
We don't collect sensitive financial data through tracking technologies. Your actual project budget numbers and financial information are handled separately through secure, encrypted connections and stored according to our privacy policy.
Managing Your Tracking Preferences
You have several ways to control how tracking technologies work on your device. Most control happens through your browser settings, though some functionality might be limited if you block certain types of tracking.
Here's how to manage these settings in different browsers. The exact steps might vary slightly depending on your browser version, but the general approach remains consistent.
Chrome
Firefox
Safari
Edge
Most browsers let you block third-party tracking while still allowing first-party functionality. This gives you a balance between privacy and usability. You can also clear existing stored data through your browser's history or privacy settings.
Data Retention and Storage
Different types of tracking data stay on your device or our servers for different periods. This depends on what the data does and how long it needs to remain useful.
Session-Based Storage
Some tracking data only lasts for your current visit. When you close your browser, this information disappears automatically. Session data typically includes your current login status and temporary workspace information.
Persistent Storage
Other data stays longer to remember your preferences or help us analyze patterns over time. Preference settings might last for months or until you clear them manually. Analytics data typically gets aggregated and anonymized within 90 days, with the aggregated insights retained longer for trend analysis.
Regular Reviews
We review stored tracking data regularly and remove anything that's no longer serving a clear purpose. If we change how long we retain certain types of data, we'll update this policy and notify you through our website.
You can request information about tracking data associated with your account by contacting us directly. While much of this data is anonymized and aggregated, we can provide details about what types of information we've collected related to your usage.
Third-Party Services
Some tracking technologies on ariontalyxos.com come from third-party services we use to provide certain functionality. For example, we might use analytics tools or communication platforms that set their own tracking mechanisms.
We choose third-party services carefully based on their privacy practices and the value they provide. These services operate under their own privacy policies, which govern how they collect and use data. We ensure that any third parties we work with maintain reasonable data protection standards.
When you use ariontalyxos.com, you might encounter tracking from these third-party services. We don't control these external systems directly, but we select partners who respect user privacy and follow Australian data protection expectations.
Changes to This Policy
Technology changes and so do our practices. When we update how we use tracking technologies, we'll revise this policy and update the date at the top.
Significant changes will be communicated through our website or directly to registered users. We recommend reviewing this policy periodically to stay informed about how we're using tracking technologies on ariontalyxos.com.
If we start using tracking technologies in substantially different ways, we'll provide clear notice and, where appropriate, request your consent before implementing those changes.
