What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help websites remember who you are and what you've done during your visit.

At MexoraFlow, we use cookies to make your experience better. They help us remember your login details, keep track of your course progress, and understand which programming tutorials are most helpful to students learning mobile game development.

Most modern websites use cookies. Without them, you'd have to log in every time you visited a new page, and we wouldn't be able to save your learning preferences or course bookmarks.

Types of Cookies We Use

We've organized our cookies into four main categories. Each serves a different purpose in delivering our programming education platform to you.

How We Use Cookies

Here's what actually happens when you use mexoraflow.com with cookies enabled:

User Authentication

When you log into your student account, we create a session cookie that remembers you're logged in. This means you don't need to enter your credentials every time you navigate to a different course page or tutorial.

Learning Progress Tracking

As you work through our programming courses, cookies save your progress automatically. If you're halfway through a Unity tutorial on Tuesday and come back Friday, you'll pick up right where you left off. Your completed lessons, quiz scores, and code challenges are all tracked this way.

Platform Preferences

We remember how you like things. Dark mode or light mode for the code editor. Whether you prefer video tutorials or text-based lessons. Your preferred programming language syntax highlighting. All these preferences stick with you across sessions.

Performance Analysis

We use analytics cookies to see which parts of our platform work well and which need improvement. For example, if lots of students abandon a particular C++ lesson at the same point, we know something might be confusing there and we should revise it.

Security Measures

Some cookies help protect your account. They detect unusual login patterns, verify that form submissions come from actual users (not bots), and help prevent unauthorized access to student accounts.

Cookie Retention Periods

Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time. Here's how long each type remains on your device:

Cookie Type	Duration	Purpose
Session Cookies	Until browser closes	Temporary data for your current visit
Authentication	30 days	Keeps you logged into your account
Preferences	12 months	Remembers your settings and choices
Analytics	24 months	Tracks usage patterns over time
Marketing	13 months	Advertising and campaign tracking

Third-Party Cookies

Not all cookies on mexoraflow.com come from us directly. Some are set by external services we use to run the platform effectively.

• Google Analytics: Helps us understand how students navigate through courses and which content is most valuable. These cookies track things like page views, time spent on tutorials, and navigation patterns.
• Video Hosting Services: When you watch programming tutorials, our video provider may set cookies to remember playback quality preferences and track viewing completion rates.
• Payment Processors: If you enroll in paid courses, our payment partner sets cookies to process transactions securely and prevent fraud.
• Content Delivery Networks: These cookies help deliver course materials quickly by serving content from servers closest to your location.

These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern how they use cookies. We choose partners carefully, but we don't control their cookie practices directly.

Managing Your Cookie Settings

You have several options for controlling cookies on your device. The button at the top of this page lets you reject all non-essential cookies instantly. But you can also manage cookies through your browser.

Keep in mind that blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging into your MexoraFlow account and accessing course materials. If you block cookies, you'll only be able to view free public content on our site.

Mobile Device Settings

On mobile devices, you can manage cookies through your browser app settings. iOS and Android both offer options to limit tracking and clear browsing data including cookies.

Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable certain cookies, here's what changes:

• Without Essential Cookies: You won't be able to log in, enroll in courses, or access student resources. The platform essentially becomes read-only for public content.
• Without Functional Cookies: Your preferences won't be saved. You'll need to select your code editor theme every visit, and your course progress won't sync across devices.
• Without Analytics Cookies: Your usage won't contribute to our understanding of how to improve the platform. This doesn't affect your personal experience directly.
• Without Marketing Cookies: You'll still see ads for programming courses, but they won't be tailored to your interests. You might see ads for topics you've already mastered or courses you're not interested in.

Updates to This Policy

We update this cookie policy occasionally to reflect changes in how we use cookies or comply with new regulations. When we make significant changes, we'll notify active students through email and display a notice on the platform.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page shows when we most recently revised the policy. We recommend checking back periodically if you want to stay informed about our cookie practices.

Previous versions of this policy are available upon request if you need to review historical cookie practices for any reason.
