Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Dealleadcenter (accessible at dealleadcenter.net) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit or interact with our platform. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.
By continuing to use our platform after reviewing this policy, you acknowledge the practices described here. Where your consent is required, we will request it through appropriate mechanisms before placing non-essential cookies.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve efficiency, and provide information to site owners.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or malware. They cannot access other files on your device or execute code independently.
1.1 First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by Dealleadcenter and are used to operate and improve our platform. Third-party cookies are set by external services that we integrate with, such as analytics or payment providers. Third-party cookies are governed by the respective third party's privacy and cookie policies.
1.2 Session and Persistent Cookies
Session cookies exist only for the duration of your visit and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually, allowing the platform to recognise you on return visits.
2. Similar Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use the following technologies that function in a comparable manner:
- Web beacons - small transparent image files embedded in pages or emails that signal when content has been loaded or an action taken.
- Pixel tags - code snippets that record interactions with specific page elements.
- Local storage and session storage - browser-based storage mechanisms that hold data on your device beyond the standard cookie mechanism.
- Device fingerprinting - a technique that derives a probabilistic identifier from device characteristics such as screen resolution, installed fonts, and browser configuration.
References to "cookies" in this policy apply equally to these technologies unless stated otherwise.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
We classify the cookies used on our platform into the following categories:
| Category | Purpose | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Enable core platform functions such as account login, session management, security, and access to protected content areas. | Legitimate interest / contractual necessity |
| Functional | Remember your preferences such as language, region, or display settings to personalise your experience. | Consent |
| Performance and Analytics | Collect aggregated, anonymised data about how visitors use the platform to help us improve navigation and content quality. | Consent |
| Marketing and Targeting | Track activity across sessions and, where applicable, across third-party sites to deliver relevant promotional content. | Consent |
4. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the platform to operate. Without them, services you have requested - such as accessing your course dashboard, completing a lesson, or processing a payment - cannot be provided. Because they are operationally required, they do not need your consent and cannot be disabled through our cookie controls.
Examples of functions supported by strictly necessary cookies include:
- Authenticating your identity when you log in
- Maintaining your session state as you move between pages
- Storing items in a shopping cart or enrolment queue
- Preventing fraudulent or unauthorised access
- Load balancing requests across our servers
5. Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the platform to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalised features. Information collected by these cookies may be anonymised and cannot track your activity on other websites.
Examples include remembering your preferred content language, storing your progress through a course module, and retaining display preferences such as video playback quality.
6. Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our platform by collecting information such as pages visited, time spent on each page, error messages encountered, and navigation paths. All data collected is aggregated and does not directly identify individual users.
We use this information to improve the structure, content, and usability of our platform. We may use third-party analytics services for this purpose. Those services process data under their own terms, which we encourage you to review.
7. Marketing and Targeting Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions such as preventing the same advertisement from appearing repeatedly, ensuring promotions are displayed correctly, and measuring the effectiveness of campaigns.
These cookies may be set by our advertising partners. They may combine information collected on our platform with information they have gathered from other sources. We do not control the information collected by third-party marketing cookies, and you should consult the relevant third party's policy for details.
8. Specific Cookies in Use
The table below lists the primary cookies currently active on our platform. This list is reviewed periodically and may not reflect every cookie present at all times, particularly where third-party services update their own cookie implementations.
| Cookie Name | Category | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| session_id | Strictly Necessary | Session | Maintains your authenticated session |
| csrf_token | Strictly Necessary | Session | Protects against cross-site request forgery |

9. How to Control Cookies
You have several options for managing cookies. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the platform, and some features may not work as intended.
9.1 Cookie Consent Tool
When you first visit our platform, you will be presented with a consent notice that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies by category. You can revisit and update your preferences at any time through the cookie settings link available in the site footer.
9.2 Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, block, and delete cookies through their settings. The steps vary by browser. Please refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions. Common browsers include:
- Google Chrome - Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox - Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari - Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge - Settings > Cookies and site permissions
Blocking all cookies through your browser will prevent strictly necessary cookies from functioning, which will significantly impair your ability to use the platform.
9.3 Opt-Out Tools Provided by Third Parties
Some third-party services we use offer their own opt-out mechanisms. Where applicable, links to those tools will be provided in our full privacy notice or upon request.
10. Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies collect or are associated with personal data, such as your account identifier or IP address. Where cookies process personal data, that processing is governed by our Privacy Policy. This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy for a complete picture of how we handle your information.
We do not sell personal data collected through cookies to third parties.
11. Retention of Cookie Data
Cookie data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Session cookies are deleted at the end of your browser session. Persistent cookies expire at the duration specified in the table above or earlier if you delete them manually. Analytics and marketing data derived from cookies may be retained in aggregated form for longer periods for statistical purposes.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use, applicable regulations, or our business practices. When we make material changes, we will update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you through the platform or by email.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
