Understanding how BrooklinenStudio uses tracking technologies on BrooklinenStudio
What Are Tracking Technologies?
As you explore our culinary education platform, a set of small data files run in the background to improve your experience. These tracking technologies—cookies, web beacons, and local storage—help us learn how you engage with our global cuisine content and courses.
Think of them as digital helpers that recall your choices, such as saved techniques or language preferences, making future visits more seamless and tailored to your culinary studies.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Functionality
These are needed for the site to operate correctly—keeping your login active, storing items in your course cart, and ensuring security features perform properly. Without them, core site functions could fail.
Performance Analytics
We monitor how visitors move through our cooking tutorials and recipe collections to identify popular content and optimize performance. This helps us spot slow-loading sections or difficulties locating certain techniques.
Personalization Features
They store your dietary preferences, preferred cuisines, and previously viewed classes, enabling us to suggest relevant topics such as Indian spice tutorials or advanced knife skills when you come back.
Marketing Optimization
We monitor which promotional materials engage different user groups to present more suitable course recommendations, such as highlighting baking basics for pastry fans or Asian fusion techniques for more adventurous cooks.
Essential Operations Information
Required for Basic Site Function
Certain tracking technologies cannot be disabled as they are essential for core operations, including session maintenance, security checks, and basic preference storage that keep the site functional and secure.
Data Retention and Your Control Options
We retain different kinds of tracking data for varying durations depending on purpose. Session data ends when you close the browser, while preference data may remain for up to two years to maintain consistency across visits.
You have substantial control over these technologies via your browser settings. Most modern browsers let you block third-party trackers, erase stored data, or prompt you before new tracking elements are installed. Note that turning off certain trackers may reduce some personalization features.
In regions with privacy regulations, we provide extra controls and transparency. Our data practices comply with applicable privacy frameworks while supporting interactive features that enhance culinary learning.
