This Cookie Policy explains how Duarte Business English (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
- What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work properly, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use it. Similar technologies such as pixels and local storage work in the same way. In this policy, we refer to all of these simply as “cookies”.
- The cookies we use
We group the cookies on our site into the following categories:
Strictly necessary cookies. These are essential for the website to function, for example to keep it secure and to remember your cookie choices. They cannot be switched off and do not require your consent.
Functional cookies. These remember choices you make to give you a better experience, such as language or display preferences.
Analytics and performance cookies. These help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it, for example which pages are visited most often. They are only set with your consent.
Third-party cookies. Some features rely on outside services that may set their own cookies, including:
Payment processing through Stripe when you book and pay for classes.
Embedded or linked content from Instagram, YouTube, and Amazon.
Non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, and third-party) are only placed after you give consent through our cookie banner.
- Why we use cookies
We use cookies to keep the website running and secure, to remember your preferences, to measure and improve how the site performs, and to enable certain third-party features such as payments and embedded media.
- Your consent and how to manage cookies
When you first visit our site, a banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by clicking “Manage consent” at the bottom of any page.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings, which allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.
- International data transfers
Some of the third-party services that set cookies (such as payment and embedded media providers) are based outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where data is transferred, appropriate safeguards apply, as described in our Privacy Policy.
- Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a new “last updated” date.
