Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function correctly, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use the platform. Some cookies are essential for the site to work; others help us improve your experience or measure the effectiveness of our advertising.
These cookies are necessary for the platform to function and cannot be switched off. They include authentication cookies that keep you signed in to your account while you use the platform. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information beyond your session token. They are set when you sign in and expire when your session ends or after a period of inactivity.
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors interact with our website. GA4 sets cookies to distinguish unique visitors and track page views, session duration, and navigation patterns. These cookies are first-party cookies set under the modernedu.com.au domain. They typically persist for up to 2 years. The data collected is aggregated and anonymous. We use this information to improve our website, understand which pages and courses are most useful, and identify technical issues. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
We use the Meta (Facebook) Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns on Facebook and Instagram. The Meta Pixel sets cookies to identify your browser and record interactions such as page views, enquiry form submissions, and enrolments. These cookies help us understand which advertisements led to visits or enrolments so we can improve our advertising and reduce wasted spend. Meta Pixel cookies are first-party cookies set under the modernedu.com.au domain and typically persist for up to 90 days. We also use the Meta Conversions API (server-side) to send event data directly to Meta. You can manage your advertising preferences through your Facebook Ad Settings at www.facebook.com/adpreferences.
Some cookies may be set by third-party services embedded in our platform, such as video players or payment providers. These cookies are governed by the respective third party's privacy and cookie policies. We do not control third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the relevant provider's policies for details.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can choose to block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or delete cookies when you close your browser. Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent you from signing in or using certain features of the platform. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers can be found on the browser's support pages. If you disable cookies, you can still browse our course catalogue and public pages, but you may not be able to access your enrolled courses or student dashboard.
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. There is no universal standard for how websites should respond to this signal, and our platform does not currently alter its behaviour in response to Do Not Track requests. You can manage tracking through the cookie controls described above.
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or our practices. The latest version will always be available on this page.
