Cookie Policy & Preferences

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we use (i.e., the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used), and how you can manage your cookie settings across White Knight services.

This policy applies to our websites and services, including: whiteknight.academy (academy/lessons) and analytics.whiteknight.academy (analytics landing pages and dashboard).

For more information about how we process personal data, please see our Privacy Policy. If you are a California resident (or where similar laws apply), you can also review: Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.

1) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when a website loads in your browser. Cookies help websites function properly, improve security, provide a better user experience, and analyze performance so we can understand what works and where improvements are needed.

2) How do we use cookies?

Like most online services, we use both first-party and third-party cookies for various purposes. First-party cookies are primarily necessary for the website to function properly and do not collect personally identifiable data by themselves.

Third-party cookies (where permitted and based on your consent choices) may help us:

• understand how the website performs and how you interact with it (analytics),
• keep our services secure and prevent fraud/abuse,
• deliver relevant advertisements and measure campaign performance,
• enable remarketing/retargeting (marketing),
• improve overall user experience and the speed of future interactions.

Our website and marketing stack may include tools such as Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), TikTok, Bing/Microsoft Advertising, and similar services, depending on our configuration and your consent choices. We may also use server-side measurement/security tooling (e.g., via Cloudflare and/or Stape) to improve performance, security, and measurement reliability, while respecting your CookieYes consent preferences where required.

Payment processing is handled by providers such as Stripe and PayPal, which may set or read cookies strictly for secure checkout and fraud prevention.

3) Types of cookies we use

3.1 Necessary (Strictly Necessary)

Necessary cookies are required to enable basic features of this site, such as secure log-in (where applicable), security, fraud prevention, load balancing, and storing your consent preferences. These cookies are essential and cannot be switched off in some systems.

3.2 Functional

Functional cookies help enable optional features and remember preferences (e.g., language, UI settings). These cookies are used only where permitted and/or based on your choices.

3.3 Analytics (Statistics)

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website (e.g., visits, traffic sources, usage patterns), so we can improve performance and usability. Analytics cookies are used only where permitted and/or based on your consent.

3.4 Advertisement / Marketing

Marketing cookies are used to deliver relevant ads, limit repetition, measure ad effectiveness, and support remarketing/retargeting. Marketing cookies are used only where permitted and/or based on your consent.

4) Manage cookie preferences

You can modify your cookie settings anytime by using the cookie settings panel (CookieYes). This allows you to revisit your choices, update preferences, or withdraw consent (where applicable).

If the button does not open the settings panel, please ensure CookieYes is installed site-wide (including on analytics.whiteknight.academy), then refresh the page. Some ad blockers may interfere with consent tools.

5) Cookie Declaration (detailed list)

The cookie declaration below is provided by CookieYes and may update automatically after scans. If it does not appear, please confirm you embedded the CookieYes “Cookie Audit / Cookie Declaration” block on this page (or enabled it in your CookieYes setup).

6) Advertising, remarketing, and “Do Not Sell or Share” (US/CA)

Where permitted and based on your consent choices, we may use cookies and similar technologies for advertising measurement and remarketing/retargeting (e.g., Google, Meta, TikTok, Bing).

If you are a California resident (or where similar laws apply), you may have the right to opt out of certain data sharing for advertising purposes. Please see: Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.
