Cookie Policy
How we use tracking technologies on nowtechpresent.com and what control you have over your data
Your Cookie Preferences
You can reject non-essential tracking at any time. Essential cookies remain active to keep the website functional.
Checking preferences...Last updated: January 2025. This policy explains how Nowtech Present uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. We believe in transparency, so we've broken down exactly what data we collect and why.
What Are Cookies Anyway?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. They help websites remember your preferences and understand how people use the site. Some cookies disappear when you close your browser (session cookies), while others stick around for a set period (persistent cookies).
Think of them like bookmarks that websites leave in your browser. They're not harmful, but we understand you might want control over what gets stored on your device.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These keep the website working properly. Without them, you wouldn't be able to navigate between pages or use basic features. They're necessary for site operation.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices like language preferences or region settings. They make your experience smoother by personalizing content based on your previous visits.
Analytical Cookies
We use these to understand how visitors interact with our website. They tell us which pages are popular and help us spot technical issues. All data is aggregated and anonymous.
Marketing Cookies
These track your browsing across different websites to show you relevant content about our AR/VR game development programs. They help us reach people who might benefit from what we offer.
Essential Cookies Cannot Be Disabled
Some cookies are absolutely necessary for the website to function. These include:
- Session management cookies that keep you logged in as you navigate
- Security cookies that protect against fraudulent activity
- Load balancing cookies that distribute traffic across our servers
- Cookie consent preference storage (remembering your choice about cookies)
These cookies don't track you across other websites and contain no personal information beyond what's needed for site operation.

How Cookies Improve Your Experience
Without cookies, you'd need to re-enter information every time you visit a new page. Our website uses them to:
- Remember which pages you've already viewed during program enrollment
- Keep items in your inquiry form when you navigate away and come back
- Understand which content resonates with visitors so we can improve it
- Show you information about upcoming programs that match your interests
- Optimize page loading times based on your connection speed
- Prevent you from seeing the same promotional message repeatedly
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site come from external services we use. For example, when we embed a video demonstration of AR/VR development techniques, the video platform might set its own cookies. We use reputable providers, but they have their own privacy policies you should review.
Third-party services we work with include analytics platforms, video hosting services, and occasionally educational content distribution networks. You can manage these through your browser settings or by using the rejection button above.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Every browser gives you control over cookies. 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 → Cookies and site data
Keep in mind that blocking all cookies might break some website functionality. Essential cookies are necessary for core features to work.
Data Retention and Storage
Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies vanish when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay until their expiration date or until you manually delete them. Most of our analytical cookies expire after two years, while preference cookies last around six months.
Cookie data stored on our servers follows the same retention schedule outlined in our main Privacy Policy. We don't keep cookie information longer than necessary for its intended purpose.
Your Control Options

- Use the rejection button at the top of this page to decline all non-essential tracking
- Configure your browser to reject cookies from all websites or specific domains

- Enable "Do Not Track" signals in your browser preferences
Your choice applies to this browser on this device. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you'll need to set preferences for each one separately.

We review this cookie policy periodically to make sure it reflects our current practices. When we make changes, we update the date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be communicated through a notification on our website.
Technology evolves, and so do tracking methods. We commit to keeping this policy current and transparent about how we use cookies.
