Cookie Usage Policy
Last Updated: January 15, 2025
At IntelliConnect Energy Tech, we believe in straightforward communication about how our website works. This page explains what tracking technologies we use on intelliconnectenergytech.com and why they matter for your experience with our budget planning tools.
What We're Actually Tracking
Let's be honest about this. When you visit our site, small data files get stored on your device. Some people call them cookies, others call them tracking technologies. We use both terms, but they basically do the same thing – they help our website remember who you are and what you're doing.
Think of it like leaving breadcrumbs so you don't have to start from scratch every time you come back. Your budget calculations stay saved, your preferred settings remain intact, and you don't have to log in seventeen times a day.
Breaking Down Our Tracking Methods
1Essential Function Cookies
These keep the lights on. Without them, you can't log into your account, save your budget templates, or use any of the interactive calculators. We can't turn these off because the site literally wouldn't work. They expire when you close your browser or after your session ends – usually around 24 hours of inactivity.
2Performance Tracking
We watch how people move through the site. Which budget tools get used most? Where do people get stuck? This helps us fix confusing parts and improve the stuff that actually matters. These stick around for about 90 days and don't collect personal information – just behavioral patterns.
3Preference Memory
You set your currency to Thai Baht instead of USD? We remember that. You prefer the dark mode interface? Saved. These cookies make sure your choices persist between visits. They typically last for a year unless you clear them manually.
4Marketing Attribution
These tell us how you found our site. Did you click an ad? Come from a search result? Follow a link from our newsletter? This information helps us understand what's working and what's wasting money. They usually expire after 30 days.
Why This Actually Matters
Here's a real example. Last month, we noticed through our tracking that people kept abandoning the advanced budget calculator halfway through. The data showed everyone was dropping off at the same step.
Turns out, that particular section was confusing. We redesigned it, and completion rates jumped by 40%. That's the value of this tracking – it shows us where we're failing you.

What Gets Stored and For How Long
Retention Periods We Use
Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. These handle your active login and current budget work.
Short-term cookies last 30-90 days. They track your recent activity patterns and marketing interactions.
Long-term cookies stick around for up to a year. These remember your preferences and settings so you don't have to reconfigure everything on every visit.
You can delete any of these whenever you want through your browser settings. Just know that doing so will reset your personalized experience.
Taking Control Through Your Browser
Browser-Level Management
Every major browser lets you manage cookies directly. The process varies slightly, but they all give you options to block, delete, or restrict tracking. Here's where to find those settings:
Specific Tracking Technologies We Deploy
Beyond standard cookies, we use a few other tracking methods that work differently but serve similar purposes.
- Local storage keeps larger amounts of data on your device for faster loading times and offline functionality
- Session storage temporarily holds information while you're actively using the site, then wipes it clean when you leave
- Pixel tags help us confirm email opens and track which resources you're accessing from our learning materials
- Device fingerprinting creates a unique identifier based on your browser configuration to prevent fraud and duplicate accounts
Third-Party Tracking Partners
We don't handle all tracking in-house. Some comes from services we integrate:
Google Analytics monitors site performance and user behavior patterns. Their cookies follow you across multiple sites to build advertising profiles – that's separate from what we directly control.
Payment processors place cookies to prevent fraud and streamline checkout. These are necessary for secure transactions but operate under their own privacy policies.
Email service providers track whether you open our messages and click links. This helps us understand what content resonates with our audience in Thailand and beyond.
Your Rights and Our Obligations
You have the right to know what we're tracking. That's why this page exists.
You can request deletion of your tracked data at any time. Email us at [email protected] with "Data Deletion Request" in the subject line. We'll process it within 15 business days.
You can opt out of marketing cookies while still using essential site functions. The button above handles that for you.
You can export your data to see exactly what we've collected. Fair warning – it's usually pretty boring stuff like login timestamps and page views.
Updates to This Policy
We update this policy when we add new tracking technologies or change how we use existing ones. Major changes get announced via email to active users. Minor clarifications just get updated here with a new date stamp at the top.
Check back periodically if you're curious about changes. We don't spam notifications for every tiny tweak.
