Cookie Policy

Last updated: May 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They help the site remember information about your visit, such as your login session, so you don't have to re-enter it each time you return.

2. How FocusEdu Uses Cookies

FocusEdu uses a minimal set of cookies, strictly limited to the following purposes:

  • Authentication cookies: A session token is stored in a secure, HTTP-only cookie to keep you logged in across page visits. This cookie is essential — the platform cannot function without it.
  • Security cookies: Short-lived tokens to prevent cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. These are deleted when your browser session ends.
  • Preference cookies: We may store lightweight preferences (such as UI state) in browser local storage. This data never leaves your device.

3. What We Do Not Use

  • We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
  • We do not share cookie data with ad networks or data brokers.
  • We do not use third-party analytics cookies that track you across other websites.
  • We do not use cookies that profile children for commercial purposes.

4. Third-Party Services

Stripe, our payment processor, may set its own cookies when you visit the billing or subscription pages. These cookies are governed by Stripe's Cookie Policy. FocusEdu does not control or have access to Stripe's cookies.

Cloudflare, our infrastructure provider, may set technical cookies related to DDoS protection and load balancing. These are strictly necessary for service delivery and do not identify individual users.

5. Managing Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling the authentication cookie will log you out and prevent access to the platform until you log back in.
