Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 2025
At evolveportalnode.com, we use various tracking technologies to make our multi-year budget planning platform work properly and give you a better experience. This policy explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control them.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how people use our platform so we can make it better.

What Tracking Technologies We Use
Beyond standard cookies, we also employ web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage mechanisms. These work together to provide you with consistent functionality across different sessions and devices.
Some of these technologies are necessary for basic site operation. Others help us analyze traffic patterns, remember your dashboard settings, or show you relevant educational content based on your interests in financial planning topics.
Categories of Tracking
Essential
Required for authentication, security features, and basic navigation. These cannot be disabled as they're fundamental to platform operation. Examples include session identifiers and security tokens that protect your financial data.
Functional
Remember your preferences like currency display, reporting formats, and dashboard layouts. These make your experience more personalized but aren't strictly necessary for the site to function.
Analytical
Help us understand which features are most used, where users encounter difficulties, and how we can improve the planning tools. All data is aggregated and doesn't identify individual users.
Marketing
Track your interaction with our educational content and event announcements. These help us show you relevant learning resources about budget planning methodologies that match your interests.
How Tracking Improves Your Experience
When you're working on a multi-year budget projection, functional cookies remember which fiscal year you were viewing, your preferred chart styles, and custom report templates you've created. Without these, you'd need to reconfigure everything each time you logged in.
Analytical tracking shows us that most users access forecast comparison tools on Tuesday mornings, which helps us schedule system maintenance at less disruptive times. We've also learned that mobile users prefer simplified dashboards, so we've designed responsive layouts accordingly.
- Maintaining your session across multiple budget planning tabs
- Saving draft financial projections automatically
- Remembering your notification preferences for budget alerts
- Suggesting relevant educational content based on features you use
- Pre-filling forms with previously entered organizational details
Data Retention Periods
Different tracking technologies have different lifespans depending on their purpose. Here's how long various types remain active:
| Category | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Until browser closes | Temporary authentication and navigation |
| Preference Cookies | 12 months | Dashboard settings and display options |
| Analytics Cookies | 24 months | Usage patterns and feature interaction |
| Marketing Cookies | 6 months | Content recommendations and event notifications |
Managing Your Browser Settings
Every modern browser gives you control over cookie acceptance. The process varies slightly by browser, but you can always find these options in privacy or security settings.
Browser-Specific Instructions
- Chrome Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
- Opera Settings → Privacy & security → Clear browsing data
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging into your evolveportalnode account and using most platform features. Budget planning tools require session management to function properly.
Third-Party Services
We work with a few external analytics providers to understand platform usage. These services have their own privacy policies and tracking mechanisms separate from ours. They don't have access to your financial data or budget information.
Educational webinars hosted through our platform may use third-party video streaming services that employ their own tracking. When you register for events, you'll see clear disclosures about what data is collected.
Payment processing for our learning programs involves secure third-party systems that use cookies for fraud prevention. These are essential security measures that protect your financial information during transactions.
Changes to This Policy
As we develop new features for budget planning and analysis, we might need to adjust what tracking technologies we use. We'll update this page whenever that happens and note the revision date at the top.
If changes significantly affect how we collect or use data, we'll notify active users through email and dashboard announcements. You'll always have the option to review and adjust your preferences.
