This Cookie Policy explains how MachineLearn.online (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device, remember settings, and collect usage information.
Cookie categories we use
- Strictly necessary cookies: Required for core site functions (e.g., login, security, load balancing). These do not require consent but are essential to provide the service.
- Performance and analytics cookies: Collect anonymous data about site usage to help us improve performance (e.g., pageviews, session duration). We place these only with your consent.
- Functionality cookies: Remember your preferences (language, region) and enhance user experience. We rely on consent or legitimate interest depending on the cookie.
- Advertising/targeting cookies: Used to deliver relevant ads and measure ad effectiveness. We only use these with explicit consent.
Lawful basis for processing
Under GDPR, strictly necessary cookies are processed under legitimate interests or contract performance. All non‑essential cookies (analytics, advertising) are processed based on your explicit consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
How we obtain and manage consent
We present a cookie banner when you first visit the site that explains cookie categories and requests consent for non‑essential cookies. You can:
- Accept all cookies;
- Reject all non-essential cookies; or
- Customize cookie preferences by category.
Your consent choice will be stored in a consent cookie. You can change or withdraw consent via the cookie settings link in the footer or by clearing cookies in your browser.
Third‑party cookies and data sharing
Some cookies are set by third parties providing services on our site (e.g., analytics, video hosting, social widgets). Third‑party cookies are governed by those parties’ privacy policies. Examples:
- Google Analytics — stores cookies to measure traffic and usage.
We may use data from these services for aggregated analytics; personal data shared with third parties is governed by data processing agreements and appropriate safeguards.
Cookie retention periods
Cookies may be session‑based (deleted when the browser closes) or persistent (remain for a set period). Typical retention examples:
- Session cookie: deleted at browser close.
- Google Analytics: 2 years (configurable).
- Consent cookie: 1 year.
Specify exact durations for the cookies you set.
How to control cookies
You may control cookies in the following ways:
- Using our cookie settings tool available on the site.
- Changing your browser settings to block or delete cookies (see browser help pages for instructions). Note that disabling cookies may affect site functionality.
