Cookie Policy

1. The short version

This site only stores what it needs to work. The one exception is the Whop Pixel, which helps us measure which of our ads bring people to the site. It is off by default and only runs if you click Accept in the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.

2. What this site stores in your browser

• acg_session (cookie, first party): keeps you signed in to the student area. Expires when you log out or after the session ends.
• lm_lang (cookie, first party): remembers the language you chose. 12 months.
• lm_ref (cookie, first party): remembers the referral link you arrived from, so the right partner is credited. 30 days.
• lm_free_course (cookie, first party): opens the free mini-course lessons after you sign up.
• orque-consent (local storage, first party): remembers whether you accepted or declined the ads pixel, so we don’t ask on every page. Until you clear it or change your choice.
• Video and intro preferences (local and session storage, first party): your playback position and speed in lessons, and whether you have seen the opening animation.

3. Optional: the Whop Pixel (only with your consent)

To know which ads actually bring visitors and students, we use the Whop Pixel from Whop, the platform that also processes our payments. If you accept, a script loads from t.whop.tw and records that a page was viewed, along with technical details such as your browser, device, approximate location and the page or ad that brought you here. Whop may set its own cookies or similar identifiers for this.

It also records a few moments that matter to us: when you view the pricing or course pages, when you sign up for the free mini-course, when you send the contact form and when you click to email us. When you sign up or send the form, the name and email you entered are included, so the ad platforms we use (for example Meta, Google or TikTok) can tell whether one of their ads brought you. Payments are measured by Whop’s own checkout, not by this pixel.

One exception to the banner: when we test our own setup from our Whop dashboard, Whop opens the site with a one-time whop_verify link. In that tab only, and for at most 10 minutes, the pixel loads without asking, so Whop can confirm it works. Ordinary visits never include this link.

• Purpose: advertising measurement and attribution.
• Legal basis: your consent. If you decline, or never answer, it doesn’t load.
• Global Privacy Control: if your browser sends this signal, we treat it as a decline and the pixel never loads.
• Provider’s terms: Whop handles this data under its own privacy policy (whop.com/privacy).

4. Security cookies from our host

Our host, Cloudflare, may set strictly necessary security cookies (for example __cf_bm or cf_clearance) to tell people from bots and protect the site from attacks. They don’t track you across websites and expire within minutes to hours.

5. Checkout

When you pay, the payment form is Whop’s secure checkout. Whop and its payment partners may set their own cookies there, for example to process the payment and prevent fraud. Those cookies are covered by Whop’s own policies, not this one.

6. Your choices

Use “Cookie settings” (below or at the bottom of every page) to accept or decline the ads pixel at any time. If you decline after accepting, the page reloads without it. You can also clear or block cookies and site storage in your browser settings; signing in needs the session cookie.
