This Cookie Policy applies to all websites and platforms operated by Lecturio GmbH, including lecturio.de, lecturio.com, hub.lecturio.com, healer.lecturio.com, simtics.com, simtutor.com, and qcg.de.
1. What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website—when visited by a user—asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information.
- First-party cookies: Set directly by Lecturio GmbH.
- Third-party cookies: Set by external domains (e.g., Google, Meta, HubSpot) integrated into our services.
- Similar Technologies: We also use local storage, pixel tags (tracking pixels), and device identifiers (in mobile apps) which function similarly to cookies for analytics and advertising purposes.
2. Managing Your Consent
When you first visit our websites, a cookie consent banner (powered by CookiePro/OneTrust) allows you to manage your preferences.
- Strictly Necessary: These are essential for the service to function and are active by default.
- Functional, Performance, and Targeting: These are blocked by default and only activated if you provide explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
How to change your mind: You can withdraw or adjust your consent at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of our websites. Additionally, you can configure your browser to refuse all cookies, though this may impact the functionality of our learning platforms.
3. Cookie List
To ensure our disclosures remain as accurate as possible, the following cookie list is automatically updated through regular scans of our website. Because third-party providers may update their cookies or tracking technologies without our prior knowledge, our automated system performs periodic audits to reflect these changes.
Re-consent and Major Changes: While minor technical updates to the list occur automatically, we will proactively re-trigger our consent banner to ask for your permission if our scans detect material changes, such as the introduction of a new category of tracking or a significant change in how your data is processed. We recommend reviewing this section periodically to stay informed about the cookies we use.
4. Similar Technologies in Our Mobile Applications (iOS & Android)
Traditional browser cookies are not used within our native mobile applications. Instead, we utilize standard industry technologies to ensure platform stability and analyze our marketing efforts:
- Marketing Attribution & Analytics: We use unique device identifiers provided by your operating system (such as the IDFA on iOS or the Advertising ID on Android) to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and understand how users find our apps.
- Technical Performance & Service Delivery: We utilize integrated software tools to monitor application health, identify technical errors or crashes in real-time, and facilitate the delivery of push notifications.
- User Control & Opt-out: You can manage, reset, or disable these identifiers at any time through the global privacy or advertising settings on your mobile device.
