Website Data Usage Policy
Understanding how PebbleFieldPhase uses tracking technologies on PebbleFieldPhase
What Tracking Technologies Do We Use?
When you browse our culinary education platform, several small data files operate in the background to enhance your experience. These tracking technologies include cookies, web beacons, and local storage mechanisms that help us understand how you interact with our international cuisine content and learning programs.
Consider these technologies as digital assistants that remember your preferences, like which cooking techniques you've bookmarked or your chosen language settings. They are designed to make your return visits smoother and more personalized to your culinary learning journey.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Functionality
These ensure the platform operates correctly — maintaining your login session, remembering items in your course cart, and ensuring security features function properly. Without these, core site operations would fail.
Performance Analytics
We monitor how users navigate our cooking tutorials and recipe collections to identify popular content and enhance site performance. This helps us determine if sections like Mediterranean cuisine load slowly or if users have trouble locating particular techniques.
Personalization Features
They store your dietary preferences, favorite cuisines, and previously viewed cooking classes. On return, we can recommend relevant Indian spice tutorials or advanced knife skills workshops aligned with your interests.
Marketing Optimization
We track which promotional content resonates with different user groups to present more relevant course suggestions. This could involve highlighting baking fundamentals for pastry fans or Asian fusion techniques for adventurous cooks.
Essential Operations Information
Necessary for Core Site Function
Some tracking technologies cannot be disabled because they are essential for core site operations. This includes session management, security checks, and basic preference storage that keep our platform functional and secure.
Data Retention and Your Control Options
We retain different types of tracking data for varying periods based on their purpose. Session-based information expires when you close your browser, while preference data might persist for up to two years to maintain consistency across visits.
You maintain significant control over these technologies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block third-party trackers, clear stored data, or receive notifications before new tracking elements are installed. However, disabling certain tracking may limit some personalization features.
For users in regions with specific privacy regulations, we provide additional controls and transparency measures. Our data practices align with applicable privacy frameworks while supporting the interactive features that make culinary learning engaging and effective.
