Cookies and Similar Technologies

CogniSkill may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for website functionality, account sessions, security, preferences, and other features.

Additional cookies or similar technologies may be used by services integrated with CogniSkill. Where required, we may provide additional notice or choices regarding non-essential cookies.

User Accounts

If you create a CogniSkill account, we may store information necessary to maintain your account and provide personalized learning features. This can include your account details, course progress, practice-test activity, certificates, saved content, and related preferences.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for notifying us if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.

Third-Party Sign-In

CogniSkill may offer the option to sign in using supported third-party identity providers, such as Google or Microsoft. If you choose to use a third-party sign-in option, CogniSkill may receive limited account information from that provider, such as your name, email address, and an identifier required to authenticate your account, depending on the permissions you authorize and the provider’s policies.

CogniSkill does not receive your Google or Microsoft account password when you use these sign-in methods.

External Websites and Services

CogniSkill may contain links to third-party websites and services, including Amazon marketplaces, certification providers, technology providers, and other external resources. When you follow an external link, your interaction with that website is governed by the third party’s own terms and privacy practices.

CogniSkill is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

CogniSkill does not currently process book purchases or collect payment information through this website. When you select a link to purchase a CogniSkill book, you may be redirected to a third-party marketplace, such as Amazon, where the purchase is completed.

Payment information, billing details, shipping information, order history, and other information you provide during the purchase are collected and processed by the third-party marketplace according to its own terms and privacy practices. CogniSkill does not receive or store your credit or debit card information from those transactions.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

Information may be disclosed to service providers that help us host, secure, maintain, or operate CogniSkill when reasonably necessary to provide those services. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect legal rights, to investigate misuse or security incidents, or in connection with a legitimate business transfer or restructuring.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide CogniSkill’s services, maintain user accounts and learning records, meet legitimate operational or security needs, and comply with applicable legal obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it is maintained.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information handled through CogniSkill. However, no website, network, or electronic storage system can guarantee absolute security.

Your Privacy Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights or choices regarding your personal information, which may include requesting access to or correction of certain personal information or requesting deletion of information associated with your account.

To make a privacy-related request, please contact CogniSkill through our Contact page. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

Children’s Privacy

CogniSkill’s certification-learning services are not specifically directed to young children. If we become aware that personal information has been collected in circumstances where additional consent or other protections are required by applicable law, we will take appropriate steps to address the information.
