Cookie Policy

Last updated: 29 June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how courses123 (operated by MB Handel) and the schools hosted on our platform use cookies and similar technologies on courses123.eu and on school storefronts. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, local storage and SDKs. We group them into the categories below. You control non-essential cookies through the consent banner, and you can change your choice at any time by clearing the cc_consent cookie or via the banner.

Categories we use

Category	Purpose	Consent
Strictly necessary	Authentication/session, security (CSRF), load balancing, language preference (`locale`) and your cookie choice (`cc_consent`).	Always active
Functional	Remember preferences and enable features such as Stripe checkout and embedded video playback.	Opt-in
Analytics	Measure traffic and usage to improve the platform — e.g. Google Analytics 4 (with IP anonymisation).	Opt-in
Marketing	Advertising and campaign measurement — e.g. Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Google Ads, and similar advertising tools (LinkedIn, TikTok) where enabled.	Opt-in

Analytics and marketing technologies are used for marketing and measurement purposes and load only after you give consent for the relevant category.

Third-party providers

When enabled with your consent, these third parties may set cookies and process data as independent or joint controllers: Google LLC / Google Ireland (Google Analytics, Google Ads), Meta Platforms Ireland (Meta Pixel), and Stripe (payments, functional). Their processing is governed by their own privacy policies.

Managing your choices

Use the cookie banner to accept all, reject non-essential, or choose per category. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Rejecting non-essential cookies will not affect access to the courses you have purchased.
