QueryPilot Academy

1. Consent and choice

On a first visit, the website displays a consent panel that allows the visitor to accept or decline non-essential cookies. The choice is recorded in the visitor’s browser using a small key-value entry that does not transmit personal information to QueryPilot Academy. The visitor may change the choice at any time by clearing the entry through the browser’s settings or by revisiting this page and using the controls below.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on the visitor’s device by the website. They allow the website to recognise the device on subsequent visits and to support functionality such as remembering the visitor’s preferred theme or recording the consent choice described in section 1. Some technologies functionally similar to cookies — such as values stored in localStorage — are treated under this notice in the same way as cookies.

3. Managing preferences

Visitors may manage cookie preferences through their browser settings. Common browsers offer controls to view, accept, or reject cookies on a per-site basis, and to clear cookies that have already been set. The QueryPilot Academy website continues to function with non-essential cookies declined; some convenience features, such as the persistence of the chosen theme between visits, may be unavailable in that mode.

4. Third-party cookies

The website does not set advertising cookies and does not participate in cross-site tracking networks. A small number of third-party services — for example, an embedded video player on a future media page or a future analytics tool — may set cookies under their own privacy notices when in use. Where such services are introduced, this Cookie Settings notice will be updated to describe them before they are activated for visitors.

5. Contact for cookie enquiries

Questions about this Cookie Settings notice, or about the cookies set on a particular page, may be addressed to [email protected]. QueryPilot Academy will respond within a reasonable time and, where the question concerns a third-party service in use, will identify the relevant third party so that the visitor may exercise rights directly with that provider.

6. Categories used today

At the date of this notice, the website uses two categories of cookie-like storage: a strictly necessary entry that records the visitor’s consent choice and prevents the consent panel from re-appearing on every page; and a functional entry that records the visitor’s preferred light or dark theme. Both entries are set on the gyplautis.digital domain only and are not shared with third parties. No analytics or advertising storage is set by default.

7. Cookies table

Name: gyplautis_digital_cookies. Purpose: records consent choice for non-essential cookies. Duration: persistent until cleared. Provider: QueryPilot Academy. Name: gyplautis_digital_theme. Purpose: stores preferred theme (light or dark). Duration: persistent until cleared. Provider: QueryPilot Academy. No additional cookies are set by default. The introduction of a new cookie will be reflected in this table prior to deployment.

8. Browser-specific instructions

Most browsers — including Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari — offer a Privacy or Site Settings panel from which cookies for the gyplautis.digital domain may be reviewed and cleared. The exact path varies by browser version; the documentation maintained by each browser vendor provides the most current instructions. Clearing the storage for this domain will reset both the consent choice and the chosen theme.

9. Impact of declining

Declining non-essential cookies does not prevent access to the website, the published cohort information, or the registration enquiry forms. The principal impact is that the chosen theme may not persist across sessions, and the consent panel may re-appear if the storage entry recording the prior decline is cleared. No content is gated by cookie acceptance.

10. Updates to this notice

This Cookie Settings notice is reviewed at least annually and whenever a new cookie or storage entry is introduced. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent review. Material changes are summarised in a short notice on the website for a reasonable period before the change takes effect.
