For the purposes of this policy, we refer to all of these collectively as “cookies.”
We use cookies strictly for the following purposes. We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioural profiling, or any purpose unrelated to providing and improving our educational platform.
These cookies are essential for Studiely to function properly. Without them, certain core features would not work.
Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled without severely impacting platform functionality. We do not require your consent to set these cookies, as they are required to deliver the service you have requested.
These cookies remember your preferences and settings so you do not have to reconfigure them each visit.
Functional cookies are not strictly necessary but significantly improve your experience. We will seek your consent before setting non-essential functional cookies where required by law.
We use Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with Studiely, which features are most used, and where we can improve the platform. This helps us make Studiely better for everyone.
Firebase Analytics may set cookies or use similar persistent identifiers to collect:
Analytics data is anonymised or aggregated where possible. It is not used to build personal profiles, and it is never used for advertising.
For users under the age of 13, analytics cookies are disabled by default unless verifiable parental consent is obtained in accordance with COPPA requirements and applicable law.
Studiely uses Google Firebase, which may set or read its own cookies as part of the services it provides. These cookies are governed by Google's Privacy Policy and are used solely in connection with the Firebase services described in our Privacy Policy.
