Website Data Usage Policy

Cookies are tiny text files placed on your device by websites when you visit. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help sites remember details about you—such as your preferences, login status, or items in your shopping cart. At collectgardentrail.xyz, we utilize a range of tracking technologies to enhance your learning journey and to understand how our drawing fundamentals platform supports our community.

In addition to traditional cookies, we also use web beacons, pixel tags, and similar tools. These technologies collaborate to deliver a more tailored experience while helping us improve our educational content and the platform’s functionality. Some of these technologies are essential for basic site operation, while others improve your experience or help us analyze usage patterns.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from specific websites. However, disabling essential cookies may prevent certain parts of our drawing platform from working correctly.

When you’re learning to draw, tracking helps us understand which techniques resonate with different learners. For instance, if many students spend extra time on our shading tutorials, we know to create more content in that area. If learners frequently revisit our color theory lessons, we can expand those materials.

Analytics also help us identify moments when students may be struggling. If we notice users getting stuck at a particular lesson, we can add additional explanations or alternative teaching approaches. This data-driven approach lets us continually improve our educational content based on real student behavior rather than guesswork.

Different tracking data have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain for months or years depending on their purpose. We regularly review and remove outdated tracking data that no longer helps improve your learning experience.

You retain control over your data relationship with Collect Garden Trail. Beyond managing cookies, you can request information about what data we’ve collected, ask for corrections to inaccurate information, or request deletion of your tracking history. Our approach emphasizes transparency and puts you in charge of your digital footprint on our platform.
