Cookie Policy

1) What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit a website. Cookies help a site remember information between visits or across pages—such as a session identifier, a cookie-consent choice, or preferences related to site functionality.

In addition to cookies, websites may use similar technologies, including pixel tags (small invisible images that send a request to a server), local storage, or server-side event logging. When advertising tools are enabled after consent, these technologies can support conversion measurement and remarketing by sharing event data with third-party providers. We do not enable analytics or marketing tracking unless you explicitly consent through our cookie preference tools.

2) Cookie lifespans and origin

Cookies can be categorized by how long they last:

• Session cookies exist only while your browser is open and typically expire when you close it.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them through your browser settings.

Cookies can also be categorized by origin:

• First-party cookies are set by this website.
• Third-party cookies are set by external providers (for example, analytics or advertising platforms) when enabled.

3) Cookie categories we use

We use the following categories. The names and examples below are designed to be practical: you can compare them to what you see in browser cookie settings. Categories and purposes match our Privacy Policy so your consent choice is consistent across the site.

A) Essential cookies (always active)

Essential cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off through our preference panel. They support session continuity, basic security measures, and storing your cookie consent choice so we can remember it on future visits.

Without these cookies, features like the cookie banner itself, form flow stability, and basic site protections may not work reliably.

B) Analytics cookies (consent required)

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site—for example, which pages are visited, how long a page is viewed, and which links are clicked. This information helps us improve lesson information pages, make navigation clearer, and ensure that booking information is easy to find.

When enabled, we may use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) with IP anonymization and a data retention setting of 14 months. We use analytics reports in aggregate rather than trying to identify any individual visitor.

C) Marketing cookies (consent required)

Marketing cookies support advertising measurement and remarketing. They can be used to attribute conversions (for example, a completed booking request) to an advertising campaign and to build audiences for showing relevant ads in the future. If you do not consent, we do not enable these marketing cookies on this site.

When enabled, we may use advertising tools from Google and Meta. These tools can set cookies such as identifiers used to measure ad performance and reduce repeated ad impressions. We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes.

4) Cookie table

The table below lists cookies commonly used with our categories. Some third-party cookies will only appear if you opt in to Analytics and/or Marketing. If you choose “Reject Non-Essential,” only essential cookies should remain active (subject to your browser behavior and any cookies set previously).

5) Third-party providers

When you consent to Analytics and/or Marketing, we may enable tools from the providers below. These tools can set their own cookies and process identifiers. The set of cookies present on your device will depend on your consent choice and your browser settings.

• Google LLC (Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager): analytics identifiers and conversion measurement.
• Meta Platforms (Meta Pixel and related conversion tools): conversion measurement and remarketing identifiers.
• Cloudflare (CDN and security): may process IP-based security signals to protect the site from abuse.

We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes. Where applicable, they act as processors or service providers for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy.

6) How to manage cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

• Use our cookie tools: select “Manage cookie preferences” in the footer to open the cookie banner and adjust your choice.
• Browser settings: most browsers let you delete cookies and block future cookies. If you block all cookies, some features may stop working.
• Provider opt-out tools: you can review controls provided by major platforms, including Google’s Analytics opt-out add-on and ad preferences tools.

• Google Analytics opt-out add-on
• Google Ads Settings
• Meta Ad Preferences
• Your Online Choices (EU)

If you previously consented and later change your mind, switching off Analytics or Marketing will stop those categories from being activated moving forward. Previously set third-party cookies may remain on your device until they expire or you delete them in your browser settings.

7) Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time—for example, if we change the tools we use, update our cookie categories, or modify retention settings. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date above and may provide a notice on the website.
