Cookie Policy
Last Updated: January 2025
At futurefileterminal.com, we use tracking technologies to improve your experience while modeling financial scenarios. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control it. We believe in transparency, so you'll find straightforward answers here.
What Are Cookies and Why Do We Use Them?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our site. Think of them as sticky notes your browser keeps to remember things about you. Some help the site function properly. Others help us understand how people use our scenario modeling tools so we can make improvements.
We're not tracking you for mysterious reasons. The data helps us fix bugs, understand which features people actually use, and generally make futurefileterminal better at what it does.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Functional Cookies
These keep the site working. Without them, you can't log in, save your scenarios, or use basic features. They remember your session and preferences while you're modeling financial outcomes. We can't turn these off because the site would break.
Analytics Performance Tracking
We use these to see which pages people visit, how long they stay, and where they click. It's how we know if a new feature is useful or confusing. No personally identifying information gets collected here—just patterns and trends.
Optional Marketing Cookies
These track your journey across different sites to show relevant ads. If you've visited our scenario modeling pages, you might see our ads elsewhere online. You can reject these without affecting site functionality.
What Specifically Gets Tracked
- Session identifiers that keep you logged in while you work on financial scenarios
- Language and display preferences you've set
- Pages you've visited and features you've used within futurefileterminal
- Device type, browser version, and screen resolution for compatibility testing
- Time spent on different sections to identify popular features
- Click patterns and navigation paths through the modeling interface
- Form interactions (but not the actual data you enter)
We don't collect sensitive financial data through cookies. Your actual scenario models and calculations stay separate from tracking mechanisms. And we definitely don't sell your browsing data to third parties.
How Long We Keep This Data
Deleted when you close your browser. These are temporary helpers that disappear once you're done.
Stored for up to 12 months. They remember your settings between visits so you don't have to reconfigure everything.
Kept for 24 months maximum. Longer periods help us spot trends and measure improvements over time.
Typically expire after 90 days, though some advertising networks may use different timeframes.
Control Your Cookie Preferences
Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they're required for basic site functionality.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Browser-Level Controls
Every modern browser lets you block or delete cookies. The exact steps vary, but you'll usually find cookie settings under Privacy or Security preferences. Look for options like "Block third-party cookies" or "Clear browsing data."
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might break parts of futurefileterminal. You won't be able to stay logged in, and your preferences won't save between sessions.
Most browsers also offer "Do Not Track" signals. We respect these signals and adjust our tracking accordingly, though not all websites do.
Third-Party Services
We use some external services that set their own cookies. This includes analytics platforms and, if you haven't opted out, advertising networks. These companies have their own privacy policies that govern how they use data.
When you reject non-essential cookies through our controls, we also send signals to these third parties to limit tracking. However, they may still collect some basic information about your visit.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy occasionally as we add features or change tracking methods. Check the date at the top to see when we last revised it. Significant changes will be announced through our usual communication channels.
If we start using cookies in fundamentally different ways, we'll ask for your consent again rather than assuming you're okay with it.
Questions About Our Cookie Usage?
