Cookie Policy
Understanding how we use tracking technologies on toolnetgame.com
Last Updated: February 2025At ToolNetGame, we believe in transparency. This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them. We use these small text files to improve your experience, remember your preferences, and understand how people interact with our financial analysis platform.
You don't need to accept all cookies to use our website, but some functionality might be limited if you disable certain types. We'll walk you through everything so you can make informed choices about your data.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are tiny pieces of data stored on your device when you visit a website. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about you—like your login status or language preference. They're not programs and can't harm your computer.
Most websites use cookies. We use them responsibly to make your visits smoother and more personalized. Some cookies disappear when you close your browser (session cookies), while others stick around for a specified time (persistent cookies) to remember you on return visits.
Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize our cookies into four main groups. Each serves a different purpose, and understanding them helps you decide which to accept:
1 Essential Cookies
These keep the website working properly. Without them, you can't log in, navigate between pages securely, or access protected areas of the platform.
- Session management cookies
- Security tokens for form submissions
- Load balancing identifiers
2 Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences so we can tailor your experience. They're not essential, but they make things more convenient.
- Language and region preferences
- Display settings and customization
- Recently viewed content
3 Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our site. This helps us identify what's working and what needs improvement in our financial analysis tools.
- Page visit tracking
- Time spent on different sections
- Navigation patterns and clicks
4 Marketing Cookies
These track your browsing across different sites to build a profile of your interests. We use them to show relevant content and measure campaign effectiveness.
- Advertising preferences
- Campaign tracking codes
- Cross-site behavioral data
How Cookies Improve Your Experience
When you visit our financial analysis platform, cookies work behind the scenes to remember your dashboard layout preferences. If you've customized which metrics you want to see first, cookies save that configuration so you don't have to set it up every time you log in.
For example, if you're researching a particular industry sector and switch between multiple reports, cookies help us show you related analysis without you having to search again. They also speed up page loading by caching certain elements locally on your device.
Analytics cookies tell us which features get used most and where people encounter difficulties. In late 2024, we noticed through cookie data that many users struggled with our comparison tool interface. We redesigned it in January 2025 based on that feedback, making it more intuitive for everyone.
Data Retention Periods
We don't keep cookies forever. Essential cookies expire when you close your browser. Preference cookies typically last 12 months. Analytics cookies stay for 24 months, and marketing cookies expire after 90 days. You can delete them anytime through your browser settings.
Your Control Options
You're in charge of your cookie preferences. While essential cookies are necessary for basic functionality, you can accept or reject the others. Your choices apply immediately and can be changed anytime through your browser settings or our preference center.
Cookie Retention Details
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session_ID | Maintains your login state | Session (expires on close) |
| User_Preferences | Remembers display settings | 12 months |
| Analytics_Tracking | Measures site usage patterns | 24 months |
| Marketing_Token | Tracks campaign performance | 90 days |
| Security_Hash | Prevents cross-site attacks | Session (expires on close) |

These external services might have their own cookie policies that govern how they collect and use data. We encourage you to review their policies if you want complete transparency about data practices. We only work with reputable providers who take data protection seriously.
