Website Data Usage Policy

Understanding how DriftUpX collects, stores, and processes information to enhance your learning experience while maintaining transparency

What Are Tracking Technologies

Tracking technologies are small data files and scripts that help websites remember your preferences and understand how you interact with their content. Think of them as digital bookmarks that make your browsing experience smoother and more personalized.

At DriftUpX, we use these technologies primarily to remember which financial education modules you've completed, save your progress through our budget foundation courses, and understand which teaching methods work best for our Taiwan-based community.

These tools work silently in the background, storing information like your preferred language settings, login status, and which financial planning worksheets you've downloaded. They help us create a more tailored educational experience without requiring you to constantly re-enter information.

Essential Operations

These keep the website functioning properly, handle secure login sessions, and remember your course progress as you navigate between different budget planning lessons.

Functional Preferences

Remember your preferred settings like calculator defaults, notification preferences, and which financial topics interest you most for personalized content recommendations.

Performance Analytics

Help us understand which educational content proves most valuable, identify areas where students struggle, and measure how effectively our financial literacy programs serve the Taiwan market.

Educational Enhancement

Allow us to show relevant financial education resources, suggest complementary courses based on your learning path, and connect you with appropriate budget planning tools.

How We Collect Information

Information collection happens through several methods during your interaction with DriftUpX. When you visit our website, your browser automatically sends basic technical information like your device type, screen resolution, and general location data that helps us deliver content optimized for your setup.

We also collect data when you actively engage with our platform—signing up for courses, downloading financial planning templates, or participating in our budget assessment tools. This voluntary information helps us customize your educational experience and track your progress through our structured learning programs.

Additionally, we monitor how you navigate through our content to identify which financial education topics generate the most engagement and where students typically need additional support. This behavioral data helps us continuously improve our curriculum and teaching methods.

Data Retention Periods

Session Information

Login status and temporary preferences are cleared when you close your browser or after 2 hours of inactivity for security purposes.

Learning Progress Data

Course completion status, quiz results, and educational preferences remain stored for up to 3 years to support long-term learning continuity.

Analytics Information

Aggregated usage patterns and performance metrics are retained for 2 years to help improve our educational content and user experience design.

Managing Your Data Preferences

You maintain full control over how DriftUpX collects and uses your information. Most browsers provide built-in tools for managing these preferences, and we respect all settings you configure.

Browser Settings

Adjust your browser's privacy settings to block or limit data collection, clear existing stored information, or receive notifications before new data is saved.

Account Preferences

Log into your DriftUpX account to modify which types of educational content suggestions you receive and how we personalize your learning experience.

Data Deletion

Request complete removal of your stored information by contacting our support team. We'll permanently delete your data within 30 days of verification.

Selective Blocking

Choose which categories of data collection to allow while blocking others, though this may limit some personalization features of our educational platform.

Browser Configuration Guide

Each browser offers different methods for controlling data collection. Here's how to access these settings in popular browsers commonly used by our Taiwan-based students:

  • Chrome

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Site Settings → View permissions and data stored across sites

  • Firefox

    Options → Privacy & Security → Enhanced Tracking Protection → Custom settings

  • Safari

    Preferences → Privacy → Website tracking → Prevent cross-site tracking

  • Edge

    Settings → Site permissions → View permissions and data stored across sites

Impact on Your Learning Experience

Blocking certain types of data collection will affect how DriftUpX functions, though the core educational content remains accessible regardless of your privacy settings. Essential site operations require basic technical information to deliver secure, functioning web pages.

Without functional preferences, you'll need to reconfigure settings like preferred currency displays for budget calculators, notification preferences, and progress tracking each time you visit. Your course completion status won't be saved between sessions, requiring manual tracking of your financial education journey.

Disabling analytics collection means we can't identify which financial planning topics need additional explanation or where students typically require more support. This impacts our ability to improve course content based on real user feedback and learning patterns from our Taiwan community.
