1. About This Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how About Learning, Inc. ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on aboutlearning.com.

For the broader context of how we collect, use, and protect personal information, please also read our Privacy Policy.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember your preferences, understand site usage, and support analytics or marketing activities.

We may also use similar technologies — such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage — for the same purposes. References to "cookies" in this policy include these similar technologies.

3. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

Required for the website to work properly. They may support account login, security, payment processing, course access, checkout, and user session management. These cookies cannot usually be disabled through our website because the site may not function properly without them.

3.2 Functional Cookies

Help remember your preferences, such as language, theme, login state, and other site settings.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

We use analytics tools — including Google Analytics 4 — to understand how visitors use the website, which pages are visited, how users interact with our content, and how we can improve the learning and purchasing experience.

3.4 Marketing and Advertising Cookies

We may use Meta Pixel and similar technologies to measure advertising performance, understand campaign effectiveness, and show more relevant content or advertisements.

Where legally required (including the EEA, UK, and other applicable regions), analytics and marketing cookies will be used only with your prior consent, which you can give or withdraw at any time through our cookie banner or preference center.

3.5 Workflow and Integration Tools

We may use tools such as Zapier to connect forms, course activity, customer support workflows, and internal business processes. These tools may process limited information necessary to complete the requested action or workflow.

4. Third-Party Services

Cookies or similar technologies may be placed by third-party service providers that help us operate our website and services. These may include:

LearnWorlds — course hosting, account access, and learning platform functionality

Stripe — secure payment processing and fraud prevention

Google Analytics 4 — analytics and usage measurement

Meta Pixel — advertising measurement and campaign optimization

Zapier — workflow automation between tools

Email service providers integrated with LearnWorlds — transactional and marketing email delivery measurement

Each third party may process information according to its own privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review them.

5. Payment Cookies

Stripe may use cookies and similar technologies to process payments, prevent fraud, and secure checkout. About Learning, Inc. does not store full credit card numbers on its servers.

6. Your Cookie Choices

You can manage cookies in two ways:

Through our cookie banner / preference center, available in regions where consent is required. You may accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies at any time.

Through your browser settings, where most browsers allow you to block, delete, or control cookies across all sites.

We honor recognized opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) where applicable.

⚠️ Blocking some cookies — especially Strictly Necessary cookies — may affect website functionality, including login, checkout, course access, or assessment access.

7. Do Not Sell or Share Personal Information

We do not sell personal information. If we use advertising or analytics technologies that may be considered "sharing" under certain privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act / CPRA), we provide applicable opt-out choices where required by law. California residents may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on their behalf.

For users in South Korea (PIPA) and the EEA / UK (GDPR), the same rights to access, correct, delete, and withdraw consent apply. See our Privacy Policy for details.

8. Cookie Retention

Cookies have different lifespans:

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.

Persistent cookies remain for a set period (typically up to 24 months) or until you delete them.

Specific retention periods vary by provider and purpose; you can inspect individual cookie details through your browser's developer tools or our preference center.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for users under 16. We do not knowingly use cookies or similar technologies to collect personal information from children under 16.

10. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last Updated" date above will reflect the latest version. Material changes will be announced by email or a clear notice on the Site at least 30 days before taking effect, unless required sooner by law.
