We believe in transparency. Here's exactly how elabalithabelo.com uses tracking technologies to improve your learning experience and manage essential site functions.

What Are Tracking Technologies?
Small text files stored on your device when you visit websites. They help sites remember your preferences and understand how people interact with content.
Most modern websites rely on some form of tracking technology. The difference is how much control you have over them.
Our approach: We use only what's necessary for the site to function properly, plus optional tracking that you can disable anytime.
How We Use These Technologies
Essential Functions
Keep you logged into your account, remember your course progress, and maintain site security. These can't be disabled because the site wouldn't work without them.
Performance Monitoring
Track which pages load slowly or where errors occur. Helps us fix technical problems before they affect too many people.
Learning Analytics
Understand which course materials get used most and where students typically get stuck. We use this to improve content quality.
Communication Preferences
Remember if you've signed up for updates or dismissed certain notices. Prevents us from showing you the same messages repeatedly.
What We Don't Do
Managing Your Preferences
You have several options for controlling tracking on our site. The button at the top of this page removes all non-essential tracking immediately.
Click "Decline All Tracking Cookies" above to remove analytics and optional tracking while keeping essential functions
Your browser settings offer additional control — most modern browsers let you block all tracking from specific sites
Private or incognito browsing mode prevents most persistent tracking, though some session data is still necessary for the site to function
Important: Blocking essential cookies will prevent you from logging in or accessing course materials. We recommend only blocking optional tracking.
Data Retention
Different types of data get stored for different periods. Session data disappears when you close your browser. Login tokens last up to 30 days. Course progress tracking remains active as long as you're enrolled.
Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after 90 days — we keep usage patterns but remove identifying information.
If you delete your account, we remove all personally identifiable tracking within 48 hours. Anonymized usage statistics might remain in our analytics systems, but they can't be connected back to you.
Third-Party Services
We use a few external services that may set their own tracking technologies:
Each of these services operates under their own privacy policies. We don't control how they handle data, but we only work with providers that meet Australian privacy standards.
Updates to This Policy
We review this policy twice a year and update it whenever we add new tracking technologies or change how we handle data.
Last updated: February 2025. Next scheduled review: August 2025.
Major changes get announced via email to enrolled students. Minor clarifications or corrections happen without notification.
