Cookie and Local Storage Notice
Version: 2.8
Effective date: 24 October 2026
Contact: contact@norlecta.com
Binding language: Turkish. This text is published in Turkish and English; if the two versions differ, the Turkish text prevails.
1. What Norlecta stores in your browser
Norlecta works mainly by storing information in your own browser using local storage and, for your recordings, a local database (IndexedDB). This is how your progress, results and saved work are remembered on your device. Norlecta does not use advertising cookies, remarketing pixels, third-party analytics, or behavioural tracking.
2. Categories
Everything Norlecta stores today falls into one of three categories: strictly necessary, functional, or preference. There is no analytics or marketing storage, so those categories are not listed.
| Item | Purpose | Category | Provider | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Account and sign-in session | Keep your account (email address, name, creation time, your declaration that you are 18 or over, and the record of your acceptance of the Terms of Use and of your confirmation that you read the notices), your sign-in session and the internal identifier that keeps your progress and work separate on this device | Strictly necessary | Norlecta (your browser) | Until you clear site data; the session ends when you sign out |
| Learning progress & assessment results | Remember activities, reading progress and practice results | Functional | Norlecta (your browser) | Until you clear/delete |
| Portfolio (writing) & recordings | Store your saved writing, your checkpoint submissions and, in IndexedDB, your recordings | Functional | Norlecta (your browser) | Until you delete/clear |
| Language, audio-speed, bookmarks, dismissed notices | Remember your preferences | Preference | Norlecta (your browser) | Until you clear |
| Local access state | Remember which programme and library your institutional access covers on this device | Functional | Norlecta (your browser) | Until you clear |
None of the above is used to profile you or to track you across other websites.
3. Do you need to consent?
Because the storage Norlecta uses is strictly necessary, functional or preference-related, and there is no analytics or marketing technology, a cookie-consent banner is not required for the current storage. If Norlecta later introduces analytics, advertising or other non-essential technologies, this notice and an appropriate consent mechanism will be put in place before they are used.
4. Managing and deleting
You can view and delete this data through your browser at any time (clearing site data, or removing individual items where the app provides a delete action, such as deleting a recording). Clearing site data will remove your local progress and saved work on that device.
5. Changes
Norlecta may update this notice when its browser-storage practices change. The version and effective date above indicate the current text. Version 2.8 changes nothing in this notice; it carries the version number of the legal set. Version 2.7, dated 23 October 2026, added your checkpoint submissions to the portfolio storage listed above. Version 2.6, dated 16 October 2026, listed the account and sign-in records in place of a guest identifier that the Platform no longer creates, including the record of your acceptance of the Terms of Use and of your confirmation that you read the notices. Previous versions (version 2.7, dated 23 October 2026; version 2.6, dated 16 October 2026; and an earlier text dated 6 June 2026) are retained as a historical record.
