Cookie Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

We're straightforward about how prismatoviare.com uses cookies and tracking technology. This page explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can adjust your preferences. No jargon, just the facts about how these small data files help us improve your experience while comparing financial services.

What Cookies Actually Do

Cookies are tiny text files stored on your device when you visit our site. They remember your preferences, help us understand which comparison tools you find most useful, and make sure the platform works smoothly across different sessions. Some cookies disappear when you close your browser. Others stick around longer to remember your settings.

We also use similar tracking technologies like web beacons and pixels. These work differently but serve the same purpose – helping us understand how people interact with our financial comparison tools so we can make them better.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These keep the site functioning. They remember your session as you move between pages, maintain security features, and ensure core comparison tools work properly. Without these, you wouldn't be able to use our platform effectively. These cookies can't be disabled because they're necessary for basic operations.

Functional Cookies

These remember your choices – like which financial products you've recently viewed or your preferred display settings. They make your experience more personalized without identifying you individually. When you return to prismatoviare.com, these cookies help pick up where you left off.

Analytics Cookies

We use these to understand which comparison features get the most attention and where people might be getting stuck. This data helps us improve navigation and develop better tools. All information collected is aggregated and anonymized – we see patterns, not individual users.

Marketing Cookies

These track your journey across different websites to show you relevant financial product information. They help us understand which marketing channels bring visitors to our platform and measure campaign effectiveness. You can opt out of these through the control options below.

Clicking this button will remove all tracking, analytics, and marketing cookies from your browser while keeping essential functionality intact. Your preference will be saved locally.

How Long Cookies Stay Active

Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies vanish when you close your browser – these are temporary and only last during your visit. Persistent cookies stick around longer, sometimes for months or even years, depending on their purpose.

  • Essential session cookies expire when you close your browser
  • Functional cookies typically last 1-12 months to remember your preferences
  • Analytics cookies usually remain active for 2 years to track long-term patterns
  • Marketing cookies can persist for up to 13 months depending on the advertising network

Important: Essential cookies that keep the site working can't be disabled through our controls. They're necessary for basic operations like security features and page navigation. All other cookie categories can be managed through your browser settings or the control panel above.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Every browser handles cookies a bit differently. Most modern browsers give you detailed control over which sites can store data on your device. Here's where to look:

Chrome

Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data

Firefox

Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data

Safari

Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data

Edge

Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies

Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might affect how our comparison tools work. Some features depend on cookies to function properly, so you might find certain tools unavailable if you restrict everything.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on prismatoviare.com come from external services we work with – like analytics providers or advertising networks. These organizations have their own privacy policies that govern how they use data. We select partners carefully, but we don't control their practices directly.

When you use our financial comparison tools, these third parties might collect information about your browsing habits across different sites. This helps deliver more relevant product recommendations and measures how effective our platform is at helping Australians find better financial options.

Changes to This Policy

We update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or how we operate the platform. When we make significant changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page. It's worth checking back if you're concerned about how your data is handled.

Major updates that affect your rights or how we collect data will be highlighted more prominently – we won't bury important changes in fine print.
