Data Usage & Tracking Policy
How We Use Tracking Technologies
At Designprojectplan, we believe in complete transparency about how we collect and use information to improve your learning experience. This policy explains the various tracking technologies we implement on designprojectplan.com and how they benefit both your educational journey and our ability to deliver relevant financial literacy content.
We use multiple forms of data collection to understand how visitors interact with our budget literacy resources, which courses generate the most interest, and how we can better serve the Laos market's specific financial education needs.
Your privacy matters to us. This document breaks down each type of tracking we use, why it's necessary, and how you can control your preferences.

- Accessibility settings and font sizes

ALearning Analytics
We collect anonymous data about how people use our educational platform. This helps us understand which topics resonate most with learners in Laos and where we might need to improve our content or course structure.

- Most visited course sections and topics
- Time spent on different learning modules
- Common exit points and navigation patterns
- Device types and browser preferences

We use this data to improve our outreach to potential students who might benefit from budget literacy education, particularly in reaching underserved communities in Laos.

Detailed Tracking Information
Data Retention Periods
Essential cookies remain active only during your browsing session and expire when you close your browser. Functional preferences are stored for up to one year to maintain your customized experience.
Analytics data is anonymized and aggregated, with individual session data purged after 90 days. Marketing optimization data is retained for six months to measure campaign effectiveness across multiple enrollment periods.
Third-Party Integration
Some of our tracking involves trusted third-party services that help us deliver better educational experiences. For instance, we use video hosting services that track completion rates to help us understand engagement with our financial literacy videos.
All third-party partners are required to meet our privacy standards and are prohibited from using your data for purposes unrelated to supporting your educational experience with Designprojectplan.
Educational Enhancement Benefits
Our tracking helps us identify gaps in financial literacy education specific to the Laos market. When we see students frequently searching for information about mobile banking or microfinance, we develop new course modules to address these needs.
We also use engagement data to optimize course scheduling. If analytics show that working professionals in Vientiane prefer evening sessions, we can adjust our live workshop timing accordingly.
Security and Protection
All tracking data is encrypted during transmission and storage. We use secure, industry-standard protocols to protect your information from unauthorized access or breaches.
Personal identifiers are separated from behavioral data, so even our internal analytics team cannot connect specific actions to individual users without special authorization and legitimate educational reasons.
Managing Your Tracking Preferences
You have complete control over how we track your interactions with our educational platform. Most modern browsers provide built-in tools for managing cookies and tracking preferences.
Keep in mind that disabling certain types of tracking may affect your experience. For example, turning off functional cookies means we can't remember your preferred course format or accessibility settings.
