Last Updated: March 15, 2025
What Are Website Tracking Technologies?
Website tracking technologies are small pieces of data that help us understand how you interact with digitalspotstream.com. These include cookies, web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies that collect information about your browsing patterns, preferences, and device characteristics.
When you visit our platform, these technologies work together to remember your preferences, analyze how our features are used, and provide personalized content that matches your financial planning needs. Think of them as digital assistants that help make your experience smoother and more relevant.
Types of Tracking Technologies We Use
Essential
Critical for basic website functionality including user authentication, security features, and core navigation. These cannot be disabled as they're necessary for the platform to operate properly.
Analytics
Help us understand user behavior, popular features, and areas for improvement. This data guides our development decisions and helps optimize the budgeting tools based on real usage patterns.
Functional
Remember your preferences, language settings, and customized dashboard configurations. These enhance usability by maintaining your personal settings across sessions.

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
Our tracking technologies work behind the scenes to create a more personalized and efficient budgeting experience. For instance, analytics data helps us identify which planning tools are most effective, allowing us to prioritize improvements to features you actually use.
Functional cookies remember your dashboard layout preferences, so you don't need to reconfigure your financial overview each time you log in. Marketing cookies help us suggest relevant educational content about budgeting techniques that align with your demonstrated interests, rather than showing generic financial advice.
Without these technologies, digitalspotstream.com would function like a completely new website every time you visit, requiring you to start from scratch with settings and losing valuable insights about how to improve our services.

Different types of tracking data are retained for varying periods based on their purpose and your preferences:
- Essential cookies: Active during your session and automatically removed when you close your browser
- Analytics data: Aggregated for up to 26 months to identify long-term trends in platform usage
- Functional preferences: Stored for up to 12 months to maintain your customized settings
- Marketing data: Retained for 6 months and immediately deleted if you opt out
- User consent preferences: Stored for 13 months to remember your privacy choices
You maintain complete control over your data. You can request deletion of your information, export your data, or modify your privacy preferences at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.
