Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how iyiqe.com (“we,” “our,” or “the site”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. It describes what cookies are, why we may use them, and how you can control their use. By continuing to browse or use the site, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
We are committed to being transparent about data practices. This policy works alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences over time. Cookies can be “session cookies” (which expire when you close your browser) or “persistent cookies” (which remain until you delete them or they expire).
We may also use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage. These perform functions similar to cookies and are covered under this policy.
Types of Cookies We May Use
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies are essential for the site to work correctly. They enable basic functions like page navigation, remembering your cookie preferences, and maintaining session security. Without these cookies, the site may not function properly. These cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the site. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how users navigate between pages, and whether users encounter errors. This data is aggregated and anonymous. We use this information to improve the site’s content and user experience. For example, we may see which Forum Moderator Conversation Polite Requests pages are most helpful to learners.
Advertising Cookies
We may use advertising cookies to deliver ads that are more relevant to you and your interests. These cookies may support:
- Frequency capping: Limiting how often you see the same ad.
- Ad measurement: Tracking the performance of ad campaigns.

Some cookies on our site may be set by third-party services. For example, we may use embedded content from video platforms or social media sharing buttons. These third parties may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control these cookies. You should check the cookie policies of those third parties for more information.
Web Beacons and Pixel Tags
We may use web beacons (also called pixel tags or clear GIFs) on the site or in emails. These are small, invisible images that help us understand user behavior. For example, they can tell us if an email was opened or if a page was viewed. Web beacons work with cookies to provide aggregated data. They do not store personal information on their own.
How to Control Cookies
You have the right to choose whether to accept cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. Here are common ways to control cookies:

- Opt-out tools: Some advertising networks offer opt-out tools that allow you to decline targeted advertising cookies.
- Cookie consent banner: When you first visit the site, you may see a cookie consent banner. You can use it to accept or decline non-essential cookies.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect how the site works. Some features may not function as intended. For example, you may need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit.
