Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 2025
We use tracking technologies on norentavix.com to improve your experience and understand how you interact with our budgeting tools. This policy explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
When you visit our site, small data files get stored on your device. These help us remember your settings and provide personalised features that make managing your finances easier.
What Are Cookies and How Do They Work?
Cookies are tiny text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you browse websites. They're not programs and can't carry viruses. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help websites remember information about your visit.
Each time you return to norentavix.com, your browser sends these files back to us. This lets the site recognise you and recall your preferences – like your preferred currency display or budget categories you've set up.
Some cookies disappear when you close your browser (session cookies). Others stick around for longer periods to remember you on future visits (persistent cookies). We use both types to balance functionality with your privacy.
Types of Tracking Technologies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the site working properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to log into your account or save your budget preferences. They're necessary for basic functionality and can't be turned off in our systems.
Examples include authentication tokens that keep you logged in and session identifiers that maintain your active browsing session.
Functional Cookies
These enhance your experience by remembering choices you make. They might store your preferred language, timezone settings, or which budget view you like using most.
If you disable these, some personalisation features won't work, but the core budgeting tools will still function normally.
Analytics Cookies
We collect information about how people use our site – which pages get visited most, where users encounter problems, and which features are most helpful. This data stays anonymous.
The insights help us identify issues quickly and prioritise improvements that actually matter to our users. For instance, if many people struggle with a particular feature, we know to redesign it.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across websites to build a profile of your interests. They're used to show you relevant content about budgeting features you might find useful.
They also help us measure how effective our promotional campaigns are. You can opt out of these through your browser settings without affecting the main functionality of our site.
Why norentavix Uses These Technologies
Tracking technologies serve several practical purposes on our platform. First, they keep your account secure by verifying your identity each time you access sensitive financial information. This happens behind the scenes every time you view your budget data.
They also help us understand which budgeting methods work best for different users. If we notice many Australian users prefer a particular expense tracking approach, we can make that option more prominent for new users in your region.
- Maintaining your login session so you don't have to re-authenticate constantly
- Remembering your budget customisation settings between visits
- Understanding which features help people stick to their financial goals
- Identifying technical problems before they affect many users
- Testing new features with small groups to ensure they actually improve the experience
- Protecting your account from unauthorised access attempts
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have control over which cookies you accept. Most browsers let you refuse cookies entirely, though this will limit what you can do on our site. A more practical approach is selectively blocking non-essential cookies while keeping the ones that make the platform work.
Each browser handles this differently, so here's how to adjust settings in the most common ones:
Chrome
Open Settings, then Privacy and Security. Click on Cookies and other site data. Choose your preferred level of cookie blocking and add norentavix.com to exceptions if needed.
Firefox
Go to Options, select Privacy & Security from the sidebar. Under Enhanced Tracking Protection, choose Custom to select which types of trackers to block.
Safari
Open Preferences, click Privacy. You can block all cookies or just third-party ones. Safari also shows which sites have stored data on your device.
Edge
Access Settings, then Cookies and site permissions. Click Manage and delete cookies and site data to control what gets stored and for how long.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site come from external services we use to provide certain features. For example, if we embed a financial calculator from a trusted provider, that tool might set its own cookies.
We carefully select third-party services and only work with providers who meet strict data protection standards. However, we don't control how their cookies work – that's governed by their own privacy policies.
Common third-party services we use include analytics platforms that help us understand site performance and content delivery networks that make pages load faster for users across Australia.
Important: Blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging into your account and accessing your personalised budget information. We recommend allowing at least essential cookies to use our platform effectively.
Data Retention and Storage
Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies might last anywhere from a few weeks to several years, depending on their purpose.
Analytics cookies typically expire after two years. Preference cookies (like your chosen budget view) last indefinitely unless you clear your browser data or we update our systems.
You can delete all cookies from your device at any time through your browser settings. Just remember that doing so will reset all your saved preferences and log you out of your account.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in how we use tracking technologies or comply with new regulations. When we make significant changes, we'll notify active users through email and display a notice on the site.
The date at the top of this page shows when we last revised the policy. We encourage you to check back periodically, especially if you have concerns about how your data is being used.
