What Are Cookies and How We Use Them

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They help us remember your preferences, understand how you interact with our content, and improve your overall experience on deltaflowvelox.com.

We use cookies to personalise your learning journey, remember your dietary preferences, track your progress through our courses, and ensure our website functions properly across different devices and browsers.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for our website to function properly. They enable basic features like page navigation, access to secure areas, and form submissions for course enrollment.

Performance Cookies

We use these to understand how visitors interact with our content. They help us see which recipes are most viewed, which cooking techniques generate the most interest, and where people might be struggling with our lessons.

Functional Cookies

These remember your choices and preferences, such as your dietary restrictions, preferred measurement units (metric or imperial), and language settings for our international students.

Analytics Cookies

These help us understand which parts of our curriculum are most effective, how long students spend on different lessons, and what improvements we can make to our teaching methods.

How Cookies Enhance Your Learning Experience

  • Remembering where you left off in a cooking lesson when you return to the site
  • Storing your dietary preferences to show relevant recipes and techniques
  • Keeping track of recipes you've bookmarked for future reference
  • Maintaining your progress through our structured learning programmes
  • Customising ingredient suggestions based on your location and local availability
  • Remembering your preferred video quality and playback settings
  • Storing your notes and personal recipe modifications
  • Enabling seamless switching between different devices during your learning

For example, when you're halfway through our "Plant-Based Protein Mastery" course, cookies ensure you can pick up exactly where you left off, even if you switch from your laptop to your tablet in the kitchen.
