Cookie and Data Usage Policy
Understanding how maxonturbo.com uses tracking technologies to enhance your experience
What Are Tracking Technologies
Tracking technologies are small data files and scripts that help websites function properly and provide better user experiences. When you visit maxonturbo.com, these technologies collect information about how you interact with our budget control platform.
Think of them as digital helpers that remember your preferences — like keeping you logged in or remembering which budget categories you use most often. They're completely normal and used by virtually every website you visit.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Function Tracking
These keep the site working properly. They handle your login status, form submissions, and basic security features. Without these, you couldn't actually use our budget tools.
Preference Tracking
These remember your choices like display settings, currency preferences, and dashboard layout. They make your return visits smoother and more personalized.
Usage Analytics
These help us understand which features are most helpful and where users might get stuck. We use this data to improve the platform and fix problems.
Performance Monitoring
These track how fast pages load and whether features work correctly across different devices and browsers. They help us maintain a reliable service.
How This Benefits Your Experience
Here's what tracking actually does for you on our platform:
- Keeps you logged in between sessions so you don't have to re-enter credentials constantly
- Remembers your budget categories and preferred currency display
- Saves partially completed expense entries if you accidentally close the browser
- Shows relevant tips based on your spending patterns and financial goals
- Ensures charts and reports load quickly by caching your frequently viewed data
- Alerts us to technical problems so we can fix them before they affect more users
Data Storage and Retention
Different types of tracking data have different lifespans. Session data disappears when you close your browser, while preference settings might last for months so you don't have to reset them constantly.
Analytics data gets aggregated and anonymized after 90 days. This means we can still see general usage patterns without being able to identify individual users. Personal preference data stays as long as your account is active, but you can reset it anytime through your dashboard settings.
Managing Your Tracking Preferences
Browser-Level Controls
Every major browser gives you control over tracking. Here's where to find these settings:
Account-Level Controls
Within your maxonturbo account, you can adjust data collection preferences in your dashboard settings. You can turn off usage analytics while keeping essential functionality, or reset all stored preferences to start fresh.
Third-Party Services
We use some external services that have their own tracking policies. This includes our payment processor for subscription handling and our email service for account notifications. These services only receive data necessary for their specific functions.
For example, our payment processor only gets billing information and transaction details. Our email service only receives your email address and notification preferences. We don't share your budget data or spending patterns with any external services.
Mobile App Considerations
If you use our mobile app, tracking works slightly differently due to app store policies and mobile operating system restrictions. The app requests specific permissions for features like camera access for receipt scanning or location for expense categorization.
You can manage these permissions through your device settings at any time. The app will continue working without optional permissions, though some convenience features might not be available.
Questions About Our Data Practices?
We believe in transparency about how your data is handled. If you have specific questions about tracking or want to request information about your stored data, we're here to help.
This policy was last updated in January 2025. We'll notify active users before making any significant changes to our tracking practices.
