Data Tracking Policy for Korlenta
At Korlenta, ensuring transparency about how we collect and use data is fundamental to maintaining trust with our users. This Data Tracking Policy outlines the technologies we use, why they are important, and how you can manage your preferences. We aim to provide a clear understanding of our practices and how they enhance your experience on our platform while respecting your rights and privacy.
Why These Technologies Are Important
Data tracking technologies, such as cookies and similar tools, are essential for the smooth operation of our educational platform. These technologies allow us to deliver core functionality, analyze how our services are used, and create a more personalized and effective learning experience for our users.
Explanation of Tracking Technologies
Tracking technologies include small data files, often called cookies, that are stored on your device. These files help us remember your preferences, track your progress, and recognize your device on future visits. By storing small amounts of information, these technologies enable seamless interactions with our platform, making it easier for you to focus on learning.
Core Functions and Necessary Tracking
Some tracking is essential for our platform to function properly. For example:
- Authentication cookies ensure that you remain signed in while browsing the platform, avoiding interruptions to your learning.
- Session cookies help us maintain stability by keeping track of your progress in educational modules or tests without losing your work.
- Security cookies detect and prevent unauthorized access, safeguarding your account and data.
Performance and Analytical Tracking
We use tracking technologies to measure how users interact with our platform. This includes analyzing metrics like the time spent on lessons, completion rates of modules, and areas where users may face challenges. By understanding these patterns, we can improve the quality and effectiveness of our services.
Functional Tracking for Preferences
Functional technologies allow us to adapt the platform to your needs. For instance, we remember your preferred language or the last lesson you accessed. This customization ensures a smoother and more enjoyable learning experience while minimizing repetitive tasks on your part.
Customization and Personalization
For a truly personalized educational experience, our platform may use tracking to recommend courses or modules based on your interests. For example, if you frequently engage with science-related content, we might suggest additional resources or tools to deepen your understanding in that area.
Benefits of an Optimized Experience
By using these tracking technologies, we can provide an optimized learning environment tailored to your needs. For example, improved navigation, faster access to resources, and better content recommendations are all made possible. This ensures that your time on Korlenta is as productive and rewarding as possible.
Restrictions
We respect your right to control how your data is tracked, and we provide various options to manage these settings. However, disabling certain tracking technologies may impact your experience on our platform.
Your Rights
You have the right to decide which data we collect and how it is used. These rights are supported by legal frameworks like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant policies. Exercising these rights empowers you to maintain control over your personal information.
Managing Settings in Browsers
To manage your tracking preferences, you can adjust your browser’s settings. Here's how:
- In Google Chrome, go to "Settings" > "Privacy and Security" > "Cookies and other site data" to modify preferences.
- For Mozilla Firefox, navigate to "Options" > "Privacy & Security" > "Cookies and Site Data" to make changes.
- On Safari, visit "Preferences" > "Privacy" > "Cookies and website data" to adjust your settings.
First-Party Management Tools
We also offer an in-platform preference center where you can customize your settings. This tool lets you enable or disable specific categories of tracking, such as functional or analytical cookies, directly within the Korlenta interface.
Consequences of Disabling Tracking
Disabling certain types of tracking may affect your experience. For instance:
- Turning off authentication cookies could require you to log in repeatedly during a single session.
- Rejecting functional cookies might prevent us from saving your progress in lessons or recalling your preferences.
- Disabling analytics could limit our ability to improve the platform based on user feedback and patterns.
Balancing Privacy and Functionality
If you’re concerned about privacy but still want a robust educational experience, consider disabling non-essential tracking while keeping core functions active. This allows you to maintain privacy without losing access to important features.
Further Considerations
Korlenta is committed to a comprehensive approach to privacy, ensuring that data is handled responsibly and transparently.
Retention Schedules and Deletion Protocols
We retain data only as long as necessary to fulfill its purpose. For example, session data is deleted immediately after you log out, while course progress data may be retained for up to one year to facilitate ongoing learning. After these periods, data is securely deleted or anonymized.
Security Measures
We employ a mix of technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data. This includes encryption, regular audits, and strict access controls to ensure that only authorized personnel can handle your information.
Data Integration
Your data may be combined with information from other sources, such as previous course enrollments, to provide a richer educational experience. For example, we might integrate your quiz results with course recommendations to guide your learning path.
Regulatory Compliance
Korlenta complies with all applicable data protection laws, including GDPR for users in Europe and similar frameworks worldwide. This ensures that your data is processed lawfully and transparently.
International Users
For users outside our primary operating region, we adhere to local data protection laws. This includes ensuring data transfers are secure and compliant with international regulations.

Categories of External Providers
These include analytics platforms, payment processors, and content delivery networks. Each plays a specific role in improving your experience, from tracking progress to securing transactions.
