Website Data Handling Policy

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit. Think of them as digital sticky notes that help sites remember details about you—your preferences, login status, or items in your shopping cart. At outpoststonegarden.bond, we utilize various tracking technologies to enrich your learning journey and to understand how our drawing fundamentals platform serves our community.

Beyond traditional cookies, we also employ web beacons, pixel tags, and similar technologies. These tools collaborate to create a more personalized experience while helping us enhance our educational content and platform functionality. Some of these technologies are essential for basic site operation, while others improve your experience or assist us analyze usage patterns.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from specific websites. However, disabling core cookies may prevent certain parts of our drawing platform from functioning correctly.

As you learn to draw, tracking helps us understand which techniques resonate with different learners. For instance, if many students spend extra time on our shading tutorials, we know to create more content in that area. If learners frequently revisit our color theory lessons, we can expand those materials.

Analytics also help us identify when learners may be struggling. If we see users getting stuck at a particular lesson, we can add extra explanations or alternative teaching approaches. This data-driven approach lets us continuously refine our educational content based on real student behavior rather than guesswork.

Different types of tracking data have varying lifespans. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may remain for months or years depending on their purpose. We regularly review and purge old tracking data that no longer helps improve your learning experience.

You retain control over your data relationship with OutpostStoneGarden. Beyond managing cookies, you can request information about what data we’ve collected, request corrections to inaccurate information, or request deletion of your tracking history. Our approach emphasizes transparency and gives you control over your digital footprint on our platform.
