Cookie & Tracking Policy
Understanding how Digitalfirstspot uses cookies and tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience
Last updated: February 15, 2025
What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about your visit. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help our website recognize you when you return. Beyond traditional cookies, we also use similar technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage to understand how you interact with digitalfirstspot.com.
These technologies work behind the scenes to make your experience smoother – remembering your preferences, keeping you logged in, and helping us understand which parts of our financial education platform are most valuable to entrepreneurs in Vietnam and beyond.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep our website functioning properly. They handle login sessions, security features, and basic site navigation. You can't disable these ones – they're necessary for digitalfirstspot.com to work at all.
Functional Cookies
Remember your preferences like language settings, display options, and customized dashboard views. They make your return visits more convenient by keeping your personal settings intact.
Analytics Cookies
Help us understand visitor behavior through services like Google Analytics. We learn which budgeting tools are most popular, how long people spend reading our guides, and where they might be getting stuck.
Marketing Cookies
Track your interests across websites to show relevant financial education content. These come from advertising partners and help us reach entrepreneurs who might benefit from our budgeting resources.
Your Cookie Preferences
We believe in transparency and giving you control over your data. You can reject non-essential cookies while still accessing all our educational content and budgeting tools.
Essential Cookies We Can't Disable
Some cookies are absolutely necessary for digitalfirstspot.com to function. These handle your login status, security tokens, form submissions, and basic site navigation. Even if you reject all other tracking, these essential ones will remain active.
Essential cookies include:
How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
When you allow cookies, we can personalize your journey through our financial education platform. For instance, if you frequently access our cash flow planning tools, we might suggest advanced budgeting workshops. Or if you're reading articles about startup financing, we can recommend relevant case studies from other Vietnamese entrepreneurs.
Analytics data helps us improve our content too. We've discovered that mobile users prefer shorter, more visual budgeting guides, while desktop visitors engage more with detailed spreadsheet templates. This insight drives how we create new educational resources.
Data Retention and Storage
Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while others might stick around for up to two years to remember your long-term preferences. Marketing cookies typically expire after 30 days, and analytics data is anonymized after 26 months. You can clear all cookies through your browser settings anytime – though you'll need to re-enter preferences and might see less relevant content initially.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Every modern browser gives you detailed control over cookies. In Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge, you can block all cookies, allow only first-party cookies, or create exceptions for specific websites. Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might break some functionality on digitalfirstspot.com – particularly around user accounts and personalized dashboards.
Most browsers also offer "incognito" or "private browsing" modes that automatically reject most tracking. This can be useful if you're researching financial topics and don't want that activity influencing your regular browsing experience.
