What Are Tracking Technologies?

Tracking technologies are small data files that websites place on your device to remember preferences and understand how you interact with online content. At extraonlinehub, we use these tools to make your budgeting journey smoother and more personalized.

Think of them as digital sticky notes. They help us remember whether you prefer a certain dashboard layout or which budgeting tools you access most frequently. Without these, you'd need to reset your preferences every single visit.

Types of Tracking We Use

We've organized our tracking technologies into clear categories so you know exactly what's happening on your device.

How Tracking Improves Your Experience

Here's what happens when you allow tracking on extraonlinehub.com:

• Your budget templates and custom categories stay saved between sessions
• We recommend relevant financial planning resources based on your browsing patterns
• Your preferred calculator settings and default currency remain consistent
• We can identify technical issues faster and fix them before they affect more users
• Educational content gets prioritized based on what Australian budgeters find most helpful
• Form fields remember information you've entered to save you time on return visits

Taking Control of Your Privacy

You have complete control over non-essential tracking. Here's how to manage your preferences:

Data Retention Practices

We don't keep tracking data indefinitely. Functional preferences stay active for up to 12 months, while analytical data gets aggregated and anonymized after 90 days. Marketing tracking expires after 6 months or when you clear your browser data.

Session-based tracking disappears the moment you close your browser. And if you haven't visited extraonlinehub.com in over a year, we automatically clear all stored preferences tied to your previous sessions.
