Website Data Use Policy

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember things about you – like your preferences, login status, or items in your shopping cart. At steadycommons.online, we use various tracking technologies to enhance your learning experience and understand how our drawing fundamentals platform serves our community.

In addition to standard cookies, we also use web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies. These tools work together to create a more personalized experience while helping us improve our educational content and platform functionality. Some of these technologies are essential for basic site operation, while others enhance your experience or help us analyze usage patterns.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from specific websites. However, disabling essential cookies may prevent certain parts of our drawing platform from working correctly.

When you're learning to draw, tracking helps us understand which techniques resonate with different students. For example, if many learners spend extra time on our shading tutorials, we know to create more content in that area. If students frequently revisit our color theory lessons, we can expand those materials.

Analytics also help us identify when learners might be struggling. If we notice users getting stuck at a particular lesson, we can add additional explanations or alternative teaching approaches. This data-driven approach allows us to continuously refine our educational content based on real student behavior rather than guesswork.

Different tracking data types have varying durations. Session cookies disappear when you close the browser, while persistent cookies might stay for months or years depending on their purpose. We regularly review and purge outdated tracking data that no longer helps improve your learning experience.

You retain control over your data relationship with SteadyCommons. Beyond cookie management, you can request information about what data we've collected, correct inaccuracies in the data, or request deletion of your tracking history. Our approach emphasizes transparency and puts you in control of your digital footprint on our platform.
