Cookie Policy

Last Updated: March 12, 2026

This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal data more broadly. It explains what cookies are, what categories of cookies we use on nomadrift.ink, and how you can control your preferences.

1) What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help the site remember actions and preferences over time. Cookies can be “session” cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which stay on your device until they expire or you delete them.

Cookies may be “first-party” (set by nomadrift.ink) or “third-party” (set by a provider that supports features such as analytics or advertising). In addition to cookies, some technologies that behave similarly may be used, such as pixel tags and server-side conversion signals. These are typically used to understand how pages are used, measure conversions, and improve relevance of advertising.

2) How we use cookies

The website uses cookies for three purposes: (a) to keep the site working reliably (essential cookies), (b) to understand how visitors interact with course pages and educational resources (analytics cookies), and (c) to measure and improve the performance of advertising campaigns for course registrations (marketing cookies).

We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal data such as government ID numbers, financial account details, or special-category data. For registration, the site only requests the information needed to create access and support the learning experience.

3) Cookie categories on nomadrift.ink

Essential cookies (always active)

Essential cookies are required for basic site functions. These cookies help the site remember your session and your cookie consent choices. They do not require consent because the site cannot function properly without them.

  • Keeping the site stable and secure during normal browsing
  • Remembering cookie preference selections
  • Supporting form submissions and basic anti-abuse protections

Analytics cookies (consent required)

Analytics cookies help us understand how pages are used so we can improve clarity and navigation. For example, analytics can show which course pages are most visited or where visitors commonly exit. Analytics cookies are only enabled after you choose to allow them in our cookie preferences.

  • Measuring page views and session behavior at an aggregated level
  • Understanding which course topics are most helpful
  • Improving page structure, load performance, and usability

Marketing cookies (consent required)

Marketing cookies are used to measure advertising performance and to show more relevant ads. They can help us understand whether an ad led to a registration event, and they can support remarketing (showing ads to people who previously visited the site). Marketing cookies are only enabled after you choose to allow them in our cookie preferences.

  • Conversion measurement (for example, tracking that a registration was completed)
  • Remarketing audiences based on page visits
  • Reducing repeated ads by managing frequency and attribution

4) Cookie table

The table below lists cookies commonly associated with the categories described above. Some third-party cookies may not appear until you consent to analytics or marketing and then interact with pages where those technologies are activated.

5) Managing cookie preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time:

  • Use the “Manage cookie preferences” link in the footer to open the cookie banner and adjust analytics and marketing settings.
  • Use your browser settings to delete or block cookies. Blocking some cookies may cause parts of the site to work less reliably.
  • For certain providers, you can also manage ad personalization and analytics preferences through their tools (where available).

If you choose “Reject Non-Essential,” only essential cookies remain active. If you later change your mind, you can enable analytics and marketing cookies from the cookie preferences panel.

6) Third-party services

Depending on your consent choices, cookies and similar technologies may be associated with the following providers:

  • Google LLC (Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Tag Manager): used for analytics and advertising measurement.
  • Meta Platforms (Pixel / conversion measurement): used for marketing measurement and remarketing.
  • Cloudflare (content delivery and security): may process network and security signals to protect the site.

We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes. For further information on how these providers handle data, please review their privacy documentation.

7) Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in cookies, technologies, or legal requirements. When we update it, we will revise the “Last Updated” date above. Material changes may be communicated via a notice on the site.
