Cookie Policy | RiskTradeLab

Our Commitment to Educational Privacy

RiskTradeLab operates strictly as an educational and informational toolkit. We do not use cookies to collect sensitive financial data, trading account details, or personal identities. The calculations you perform on our tools remain in your local browser environment. The cookies we utilize are standard web technologies aimed solely at maintaining site functionality, analyzing aggregate traffic, and ensuring a smooth user experience.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, RiskTradeLab) are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., interactive content, analytics, and standard web advertising).

2. Why do we use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate securely. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the educational experience on our site.

Essential Functional Cookies: These are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website securely, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our site functions.
Analytics and Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information that is used in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used. For instance, we use Google Analytics to determine which educational calculators are most popular, allowing us to allocate resources to improve those specific tools. This data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify your individual trading habits.
Affiliate and Advertising Cookies: RiskTradeLab may display links to third-party services, prop firms, or brokers for educational and contextual purposes. If you click on an external affiliate link, a third-party cookie may be placed to track the referral. We do not control these third-party cookies, and your interaction with external sites is subject to their respective privacy and cookie policies.

3. How can I control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in your web browser controls.

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted.
