This Cookie Policy explains how NeoFab Academy ("we," "us," or "our"), located at 22 Satpaev Street, Almaty, Kazakhstan 050013, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website and educational platform. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. By using our website and services, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy, unless you have adjusted your browser settings to refuse cookies.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website owners. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that run content on the page you are viewing ("third-party cookies"). Our platform uses various types of cookies to enhance your learning experience, remember your preferences, analyze website performance, and ensure the security of our educational services in 3D modeling, CNC milling, programming, CAD design, and digital fabrication technologies.
We use several categories of cookies on our platform. Strictly Necessary Cookies are essential for the operation of our website and cannot be disabled in our systems. These cookies enable core functionality such as security, network management, user authentication, session management, shopping cart functionality for course purchases, access to secure areas of the platform, and remembering your cookie consent preferences. Without these cookies, services you have requested cannot be provided, and our website would not function properly.
Performance and Analytics Cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, which pages are visited most often, how much time users spend on each page, error messages received, and overall traffic patterns. We use this data to improve website performance, identify and fix technical issues, understand user behavior and learning patterns, optimize course content delivery, and enhance the overall user experience. These cookies are aggregated and anonymized, meaning they cannot be used to identify you personally. Functionality Cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language preference, region, or customized settings) and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies help us remember your course progress, maintain video playback position, save your preferred interface settings, store language and accessibility preferences, and remember items in your course wishlist.
Marketing and Targeting Cookies are used to deliver advertisements and content that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may be set by our advertising partners through our site and used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other websites. These cookies track your browsing habits across different websites, measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, limit the number of times you see an advertisement, and deliver personalized course recommendations based on your learning interests in 3D modeling, CNC machining, programming, or digital fabrication.
We use marketing cookies only with your explicit consent, which you can provide or withdraw at any time through our cookie consent banner or browser settings. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising, but you will still see advertisements that may be less relevant to your educational interests. Our marketing partners may include Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and other advertising platforms. These third-party services have their own privacy policies and cookie practices, which we encourage you to review. We do not sell your personal information to third parties, but marketing cookies may allow advertising networks to recognize your device across different websites for advertising purposes.
Our website uses various third-party services that may set their own cookies to provide functionality and analytics. Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors interact with our website through anonymized data collection about page views, session duration, bounce rates, and traffic sources. Video Hosting Services (such as YouTube, Vimeo, or Wistia) may set cookies when you watch course videos to remember playback preferences, track viewing statistics, and provide video functionality. Payment Processors use cookies to securely process your course purchases and prevent fraudulent transactions.
Social Media Platforms (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram) may place cookies if you interact with social sharing buttons or embedded content, allowing you to share course content with your network. Customer Support Tools (live chat, help desk systems) use cookies to provide real-time assistance, remember your support history, and improve customer service quality. Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) use cookies to efficiently deliver course content, images, and videos by caching data closer to your geographic location. Each third-party service has its own privacy policy and cookie practices over which we have no control. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these services to understand how they collect and use your information. We carefully select third-party partners that demonstrate strong privacy and security practices.
Cookies can be classified based on how long they remain on your device. Session Cookies are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate through our website, remember items in your shopping cart during a single visit, ensure you remain logged in while browsing, and maintain security during your session. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you end your browsing session and do not collect information from your device.
Persistent Cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your login information for return visits, maintain your language and interface preferences, track your course progress over time, remember your cookie consent choices, and provide personalized course recommendations based on your learning history. The duration of persistent cookies varies depending on their purpose: authentication cookies typically last 30 days, preference cookies may last up to 12 months, analytics cookies usually persist for 24 months, and marketing cookies (when consented) may last from 3 to 24 months depending on the advertising platform. You can delete persistent cookies at any time through your browser settings, though this may affect the functionality and personalization of our website.
You have several options for managing cookies on our website. When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies, accept only necessary cookies, or customize your cookie preferences by category. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in our website footer or by clearing your browser's cookies and revisiting our website to see the consent banner again.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through browser settings. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only certain cookies, or notify you when a cookie is being set. Browser settings can typically be found in the "Options," "Preferences," or "Settings" menu. For specific instructions, consult your browser's help documentation: Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data; Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data; Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data; Microsoft Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and site permissions. Please note that blocking all cookies may prevent you from accessing certain features of our website, such as logging into your account, maintaining course progress, or completing course purchases. If you disable cookies, some interactive features of our educational platform may not function properly.
In addition to cookies, we may use other tracking technologies to enhance your experience and analyze website performance. Web Beacons (Pixel Tags) are tiny invisible images embedded in web pages or emails that help us track whether you have viewed a particular page, opened an email, or clicked on a link. We use web beacons to measure email campaign effectiveness, track course completion rates, monitor user engagement with specific content, and compile aggregate statistics about website usage. Web beacons work in conjunction with cookies and are often used by third-party analytics services.
Local Storage (including HTML5 local storage and session storage) allows websites to store data locally within your browser, providing faster access to information and reduced server load. We use local storage to cache course materials for offline access, store temporary form data to prevent loss during browsing, improve video streaming performance, and enhance overall platform responsiveness. Browser Fingerprinting is a technique that collects information about your browser configuration, device settings, installed fonts, screen resolution, and other characteristics to create a unique "fingerprint" for fraud prevention and security purposes. Unlike cookies, browser fingerprinting does not store information on your device and cannot be disabled through browser settings. We use fingerprinting only for security and fraud detection, not for tracking or advertising purposes. You can limit some tracking technologies through browser privacy settings or privacy-focused browser extensions.
Some web browsers incorporate a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and different browsers implement DNT features in different ways. As a result, our website does not currently respond to DNT signals or similar mechanisms. However, we are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information we collect and how it is used.
You can control tracking and data collection through the cookie preference settings described in Section 6 of this policy, by adjusting your browser privacy settings to block third-party cookies, by using browser extensions or plugins that block tracking technologies, and by opting out of personalized advertising through industry opt-out tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out page or the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out tool. We respect your privacy choices and provide transparent information about our data collection practices. If industry standards for DNT signals become established and recognized, we will reassess our position and update this policy accordingly. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies and your options for managing them.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, new technologies, legal requirements, or operational needs. When we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you by posting the updated policy on this page with a new "Last Updated" date at the top, displaying a prominent notice on our website, or sending you an email notification if you have an account with us. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and tracking technologies.
Your continued use of our website after the updated Cookie Policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you should discontinue use of our website and adjust your cookie settings to refuse cookies. This Cookie Policy was last updated on October 18, 2025, and is effective as of that date.
