What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember actions and preferences over time. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage that can store or access information on your device. These tools can record details such as your browser type, device identifiers, pages visited and the time spent on those pages. On a commercial website offering Course Health services in Singapore, such technologies help maintain functionality while respecting the Personal Data Protection Act.
Why the Site Uses Cookies
The site uses cookies to deliver core services, improve performance and support legitimate business interests. They enable secure access to course materials, remember user selections during browsing and provide aggregated insights that help refine offerings. Without these tools, essential features such as login sessions and form submissions would not function reliably.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to operate. They handle authentication, security and basic navigation. These cookies are exempt from consent requirements under Singapore law when they are essential for service delivery. Examples include session identifiers that keep you logged in while accessing Course Health content and security tokens that protect against unauthorised access.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember preferences such as language settings or course progress. They enhance usability but are not strictly essential. Consent is obtained before these are activated. They store non-sensitive information like display choices and do not track users across unrelated sites.
Analytics or Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies collect aggregated data on how visitors interact with the site. They help identify popular courses and navigation issues. Under the PDPA these require consent when they process personal data. The site uses them only after users have accepted the cookie banner choices. Retention is limited to the period needed for statistical analysis, typically no longer than twenty-four months.
Advertising or Targeting Cookies
Advertising cookies may be used to measure campaign effectiveness and deliver relevant promotions for Course Health programmes. These are third-party cookies placed by advertising partners. Consent is mandatory before activation. Users can withdraw consent at any time through the site-wide cookie banner.
Social-Media Cookies
Social-media cookies enable sharing of course information on external platforms. They are placed only when a user interacts with sharing buttons. These cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective social networks and require explicit consent on this site.
First-Party versus Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by the site and remain under the control of the operator. Third-party cookies originate from external providers such as analytics services or advertising networks. The site discloses all third-party providers in the table below and ensures they comply with Singapore data protection standards.
Session versus Persistent Cookies
Session cookies expire when the browser closes and are used for temporary functions such as maintaining login status. Persistent cookies remain on the device for a defined period, ranging from a few days to two years, depending on their purpose. Expiry details are listed in the provider table.
Data Handled and Purpose of Each Category
Each cookie category processes specific data types. Strictly necessary cookies handle authentication tokens and IP addresses for security. Functional cookies store preference flags. Analytics cookies capture page views and referral sources. Advertising cookies record interaction metrics. All processing aligns with the purposes stated in this policy and the linked Privacy Policy.
Consent or Exemption Basis under Singapore Law
Consent is obtained via the site-wide cookie banner for non-essential categories. Strictly necessary cookies rely on the exemption for essential service provision. Users may withdraw consent without affecting core functionality. The banner records choices and stores them for twelve months before re-prompting.

How the Consent Manager Works
The consent manager appears as a banner on first visit. Users can accept all, reject non-essential or customise selections. Changes can be made anytime by revisiting the banner link in the footer. Withdrawal of consent takes effect immediately and previous choices are cleared.
Browser-Level Controls
Most browsers allow users to block or delete cookies through settings. Disabling cookies may prevent access to personalised course features and secure areas. The site provides guidance on common browser options without recommending any specific configuration.
International Transfers
Some third-party providers may transfer data outside Singapore. Appropriate safeguards such as contractual clauses are in place. Details appear in the Privacy Policy.
