1 What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital memory cards that help websites remember your preferences and improve your browsing experience. At nexivento, we use various types of tracking technologies to make our activity-based budgeting platform work better for you.

These files contain information about your interactions with our website, but they don't contain personal information like your name or address unless you've specifically provided it to us. Most modern browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can change your settings if you prefer not to receive them.

2 Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize our tracking technologies into four main types, each serving different purposes on nexivento.com:

3 How Cookies Enhance Your Experience

When you use our activity-based budgeting tools, cookies work behind the scenes to create a smoother experience. For example, they remember which budget categories you use most frequently, so those appear at the top of your list. They also keep you logged in securely while you navigate between different sections of your financial dashboard.

Our analytical cookies help us understand common user journeys through the platform. If many users struggle to find a particular budgeting feature, we can redesign that area to make it more intuitive. This data never includes your personal financial information – we're only looking at navigation patterns and feature usage.

4 Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have complete control over cookie settings through your browser. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies entirely. However, blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of our budgeting platform.

If you choose to disable cookies, you can still browse our educational content about activity-based budgeting, but you won't be able to save preferences or maintain login sessions. Some interactive tools may also have limited functionality.

5 Data Retention and Control

We retain cookie data for different periods depending on their purpose. Essential cookies expire when you close your browser, while preference cookies may last up to 12 months. Analytical data is anonymized and retained for up to 24 months to help us identify long-term usage trends.

You can request deletion of your cookie data at any time by contacting our support team. We'll also provide you with a summary of what information we've collected and how it's been used to improve your experience with our budgeting platform.

Our cookie practices comply with Australian privacy regulations and international standards. We regularly review our data collection practices to ensure they remain minimal, purposeful, and transparent.
