We're not big on corporate speak here. So let's chat about how
tarenovixa.com tracks information when you visit our site. It's not
particularly exciting stuff, but it matters if you care about your
digital footprint.
Like most websites operating in 2025, we use small data files and
tracking scripts. They help us understand what works and what doesn't.
Some people call them cookies—we prefer to think of them as digital
breadcrumbs that make your experience smoother.
This document explains what we collect, why we bother, and how you can
adjust things if it makes you uncomfortable. No legal jargon unless
absolutely necessary.
What Are These Tracking Things Anyway?
Tracking technologies sound ominous. Really, they're just tools
websites use to remember preferences and measure activity. Think of
them as your browser's notebook—jotting down details so you don't have
to repeat yourself every visit.
When you land on tarenovixa.com, our server sends small text files to your
browser. These files contain identifiers—random strings of characters
that help us recognise returning visitors. They don't contain personal
details like your name or address. Just codes that link your browser to
our database entries.
The Technical Bit
Tracking files sit in your browser's storage. Some disappear when you
close the tab. Others stick around for months or years, depending on
their purpose. We set expiration dates based on how long we actually
need the information.
Beyond files stored locally, we also use pixels and scripts—invisible
code snippets that send information back to our servers. These tell us
which pages get viewed, how long people stick around, and where they
came from.
Types of Tracking We Use
Essential Operations
These keep the site functioning. Without them, you couldn't log
into your account or submit forms. They're not optional—turn
them off and things break.
Functional Preferences
These remember your choices. Language settings, display
preferences, form data you've entered before. Makes repeat
visits less tedious.
Performance Analytics
We measure how people use the site. Which pages get ignored,
where people get stuck, how fast pages load on different
devices. Helps us fix problems.
Marketing Insights
These track where visitors come from and which content
resonates. We use this to understand if our educational
materials actually help people make decisions about franchise
opportunities.
What We Actually Track
Here's what information we collect through these technologies. Nothing
sneaky—just the standard stuff that helps us run a functional website
in 2025.
- Pages you view and how long you spend reading them
- Which links you click and which forms you complete
- Browser type, device category, and screen resolution
- Referring websites and search terms that brought you here
- Geographic location at city level based on IP address
- Login status and account preferences if you've registered
- Session duration and return visit frequency
We don't record everything you type or track you across other websites.
Our scripts only fire on tarenovixa.com pages. What you do elsewhere stays
elsewhere.
Why We Bother With All This
Collecting data takes effort. We wouldn't do it without good reasons.
Here's what we actually use this information for.
Making Things Work
Essential tracking keeps you logged in, remembers items in your cart,
and maintains security. Without these basics, you'd need to re-enter
information constantly and the site would feel broken.
Improving Content
We run an education platform about franchise financing. If nobody reads
a particular guide, maybe it's unclear or irrelevant. Analytics show us
which resources actually help people and which need reworking.
Fixing Problems
When page load times spike or forms stop submitting, tracking data
helps us spot the issue quickly. We can see exactly where things went
wrong and for how many people.
Understanding Our Audience
We create content for Australians interested in franchise
opportunities. Knowing whether visitors are potential franchisees or
existing business owners helps us tailor educational materials
appropriately.
Taking Control of Your Tracking
You're not stuck with our default settings. Modern browsers give you
plenty of control over what sites can track. Here's how to adjust
things.
C
Chrome Desktop
Click the three dots in the top right, select Settings,
then Privacy and Security. Under Site Settings, choose
Cookies and site data. You can block all tracking, allow
only first-party data, or delete existing files.
F
Firefox
Open the menu and go to Settings, then Privacy and
Security. Firefox offers Standard, Strict, and Custom
tracking protection. Strict mode blocks most trackers but
may break some site features.
S
Safari
Go to Preferences, then Privacy. Enable Prevent cross-site
tracking and choose whether to block all tracking files.
Safari's intelligent prevention automatically limits what
sites can track without breaking functionality.
E
Edge
Click the three dots, select Settings, then Cookies and
site permissions. Edge offers three tracking prevention
levels: Basic, Balanced, and Strict. Balanced mode works
well for most people.
Third-Party Services We Use
We don't handle all tracking ourselves. Some services come from outside
providers who specialise in analytics and performance monitoring.

These providers have their own privacy policies. We've vetted them to
confirm they meet Australian privacy standards, but you should review
their terms if you're concerned about data sharing.
How Long We Keep This Stuff
We don't hoard data indefinitely. Different types of information have
different retention periods based on practical needs and legal
requirements.
Session tracking expires when you close your browser. Preference
settings last up to two years—long enough to remember returning
visitors but not so long we're storing ancient data. Analytics
information gets aggregated after six months and individual session
details are deleted.
If you create an account, login tracking persists until you explicitly
log out or delete your account. Security logs stick around for three
months to help investigate any suspicious activity.
Marketing tracking data gets refreshed every 90 days. After that, we
only keep aggregated statistics—no individual user patterns.
Your Rights Regarding Tracking Data
Australian privacy law gives you specific rights about data collection.
You can request a copy of what we've collected about you, ask us to
delete it, or tell us to stop processing it for certain purposes.
Requesting your data takes a few business days to compile. We'll send
you a file containing all tracking information linked to your browser
or account. It'll be in a readable format, not some cryptic database
dump.
If you want everything deleted, we'll wipe your profile and tracking
history within 30 days. Some information might stick around in backup
systems for another 90 days before complete removal—that's just how
data storage works.
You can object to marketing tracking while keeping functional and
analytical tracking active. Just tell us which categories you want
disabled and we'll adjust your settings accordingly.
Changes to Our Tracking Methods
Tracking technology changes. New regulations appear. We occasionally
update our practices to stay current. When something significant
changes, we'll update this page and note the revision date at the top.
For minor tweaks—like adding a new analytics metric or switching
providers—we'll update silently. Major changes that affect what data we
collect or how we use it will get announced through email to registered
users.
We're not going to start selling your data or implementing invasive
tracking without telling you. If our practices change materially,
you'll know about it.
