Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 2025
velmariont operates velmariont.com and related services. We're straightforward about how we use tracking technologies on our platform. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can manage your preferences.
When you visit our site, small text files get stored on your device. These help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our budget compliance tools. Some are essential for basic functionality. Others help us improve your experience.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Think of them as digital bookmarks. When you visit velmariont.com, your browser stores tiny pieces of information that help us recognize you on future visits. They contain identifiers and settings but don't typically include personal details like your name or address.
Most websites use them. They've become standard practice because they solve real problems—like remembering that you're logged in or keeping items in your cart when you navigate between pages.
The Types We Use
Essential Operations
These keep velmariont.com running properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to log into your account or use our budget tracking features. They're necessary for basic site functionality and security measures.
Functionality Preferences
These remember your choices—like your preferred currency display or dashboard layout. They make your experience more personalized without requiring you to reset preferences each visit.
Analytics and Performance
We use these to understand which features get used most and where people encounter difficulties. The data helps us prioritize improvements and fix problems you might not even report.
Marketing Communications
These track whether our educational content reaches the right audience. They help us understand which budget compliance resources are most valuable to Australian businesses like yours.
What We Actually Track
Here's what happens when you use our platform:
- Session identifiers that keep you logged in as you move between pages
- Feature usage patterns that show us which tools help you most
- Time spent on different sections to understand content engagement
- Error reports when something doesn't work as expected
- Device and browser information for compatibility testing
- Page navigation paths to improve user flow
- Form interactions to reduce friction in compliance workflows
Taking Control
You're not stuck with our settings. Every major browser lets you manage or block tracking technologies. Keep in mind that disabling essential ones might break parts of the site—like the ability to stay logged in or save your work.
Your browser probably has a privacy or settings menu where you can view stored data, delete specific items, or block future ones entirely. The location varies, but it's usually under preferences or security settings.
Browser-Specific Instructions
Chrome
Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can clear existing data or adjust future permissions here.
Firefox
Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers enhanced tracking protection by default.
Safari
Preferences → Privacy. Safari includes intelligent tracking prevention that blocks third-party tracking automatically.
Edge
Settings → Privacy, search, and services. Edge provides three tracking prevention levels to choose from.
How Long We Keep Data
Different types have different lifespans. Session-based ones disappear when you close your browser. Others stick around longer—sometimes up to two years for analytics purposes.
We regularly review what we're storing and delete anything that's no longer useful. Marketing-related data typically gets removed after 13 months unless you interact with our content again.
Detailed Breakdown

Third-Party Services
We work with external providers for analytics and performance monitoring. These companies have their own privacy policies and tracking practices. While we choose partners carefully, we don't control their specific implementations.
Most analytics services offer opt-out mechanisms. You can usually find them on the provider's website or through browser extensions designed for privacy protection.
Changes to This Policy
We update this document occasionally—usually when we add new features or change how we track interactions. The date at the top shows when we last made revisions.
Significant changes get announced through our platform or via email to active users. Minor clarifications might not warrant direct notification but you can always check back here for the current version.
