Website Data Usage Policy

Cookies are tiny 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—like your preferences, login status, or items in your shopping cart. At openstudioloft.click, we use various tracking technologies to enrich your learning journey and to understand how our drawing fundamentals platform serves our community.

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

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies from specific websites. However, disabling essential 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 students. For instance, if many learners 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 spot when students might be struggling. If we notice users getting stuck at a particular lesson, we can add additional explanations or alternative teaching approaches. This data-driven approach allows us to continually refine our educational content based on actual student behavior rather than guesswork.

Different types of tracking data have different lifespans. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser, while persistent cookies may stay 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 OpenStudioLoft. Beyond cookie management, you can request information about what data we’ve collected, request corrections to any inaccurate information, or request deletion of your tracking history. Our approach prioritizes transparency and puts you in control of your digital footprint on our platform.
