Guide to Cookies

How We Use Cookies: When you visit our sites, we may place a small file known as a cookie on your device to improve your experience by making our website more responsive to your needs. We collect data through cookies to better understand our audience, which helps us tailor content and enhance your user experience. Our cookies are primarily designed to enhance site functionality and gather anonymized behavioral data, not to store sensitive personal details.

□ Cookie Usage on This Site

Currently, there are four types of cookies that may be generated as you browse our site: session cookies, preference cookies, analytics cookies and third party cookies.
Session Cookies
As you move through the site, various pieces of information need to be stored in order for the site to function properly. For example, if you add a course to favourites, this course will be remembered so that you can access them later. If you log in, it will be remembered which account you logged in with.
This information is stored in a database and is referred to as a session. One cookie is set to keep track of which session you are using. Old session data is automatically deleted from the database multiple times a day, so this information is not stored long-term.
In addition to the session cookie, a cookie is set to check if cookies can be set on your computer. This is done for diagnostic purposes when you use forms on the website. This information is used to help solve any problems you may have encountered.
How do I control session cookies?
You can use your browser settings to control whether or not the site sets session cookies. More information on your browser settings is provided at the bottom of this page.
Please be aware that cookies are critical to the working of the site. If you choose to disable cookies from this site the functionality of the site will be greatly reduced.

How do I control preference cookies?

Analytics Cookies
In order to monitor how this and related websites are performing, data is collected about page visits. This information is completely anonymous — it cannot be determined who it came from. When this data is used, numbers of visitors are analysed overall rather than individual visits.
Analytics information is used in reports and to improve the website. For example, analytics data has been used to add, remove or change features of the site based on how popular they are with users.

□ Third-Party Tracking Tools and Cookie Usage

Third-Party Advertisements and Cookie Tracking: Third parties manage some of the advertisements on our site. These parties use cookies to track the frequency of ad exposure and monitor your visits to various sites where their ads are also displayed. This tracking is done anonymously and helps advertisers tailor ads more suited to your interests and control ad repetition across different sites. For example, after searching for vehicles, you might see related automotive service ads on our site. While we do not control these cookies or the data they collect, options are available for you to opt out of such tracking by online advertisers.
