This Cookie Policy explains how Tiryaki & Tiryaki Inc., operating as Future Studies Academy (“Future Studies Academy,” the “Academy,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our Website or use our online learning Platform.

Our Website and learning services are delivered through LearnWorlds and may use cookies to operate essential functions, remember preferences, process payments, deliver embedded video content, maintain security, and understand basic Website activity.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, phone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website.

Cookies may allow a website to recognize your browser, maintain a secure session, remember your preferences, process transactions, or provide embedded content.

Some cookies exist only during your browsing session and are deleted when you close your browser. Others remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.

Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels, tags, or software-development tools, may perform related functions. References to cookies in this policy include these similar technologies where applicable.

2. Who We Are

The Website is operated by: Tiryaki & Tiryaki Inc., operating as Future Studies Academy, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

learning@futurestudiesacademy.com

3. How We Use Cookies

Future Studies Academy may use cookies to:

• Enable secure account registration and sign-in

• Maintain your session while you move through the Platform

• Remember your cookie and privacy preferences

• Protect the Website against fraud, misuse, and unauthorized access

• Support membership purchases and payment processing

• Deliver learning content and embedded videos

• Remember functional preferences

• Monitor basic Website and Platform performance

• Diagnose errors and maintain reliable services

We do not currently use optional third-party advertising, targeting, behavioural-tracking, or independent analytics integrations such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Mixpanel, Hotjar, or similar services.

If we activate an optional analytics, marketing, chat, or other cookie-setting service in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and request consent where required.

4. Categories of Cookies

4.1 Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support functions required for the Website and Platform to operate. They may be used for:

• Account authentication

• Secure login sessions

• Security and fraud prevention

• Network and Website stability

• Saving cookie-consent choices

• Processing payments

• Delivering services requested by the user

These cookies cannot generally be disabled through our cookie-preference tool because the Website may not function properly without them.

You may be able to block them through your browser, but doing so may prevent you from signing in, purchasing a membership, accessing a program, or using other essential features.

4.2 Functional cookies

Functional cookies support additional features and allow the Website to remember certain choices.

For example, functional cookies may support embedded Vimeo videos or remember settings connected with media playback. If you reject functional cookies, some video content or optional Website features may not work as intended.

4.3 Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help website operators understand how visitors use their websites, including which pages are visited and whether users encounter technical problems.

Future Studies Academy has not currently activated optional third-party analytics integrations through LearnWorlds.

LearnWorlds may still process limited technical, security, and operational information required to provide and maintain the Platform. This does not mean that optional services such as Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Hotjar, FullStory, Mouseflow, or FullSession are active on our Website.

4.4 Marketing and targeting cookies

Marketing and targeting cookies may be used to measure advertising, understand activity across websites, or provide advertisements based on interests.

Future Studies Academy does not currently use optional advertising or targeting cookies through integrations such as Meta Pixel or similar advertising platforms.

If these tools are introduced in the future, this policy and the Website’s cookie-preference options will be updated as appropriate.

5. Cookies and Services Currently Used

The cookies used on the Website may vary depending on whether you are browsing publicly, signing in, watching a video, or completing a payment.

Cookie names and durations may be changed by LearnWorlds, Stripe, Vimeo, or other technical providers as their services develop. Some providers may use additional strictly necessary technologies to maintain security, prevent fraud, balance network traffic, or deliver requested content.

For more information about third-party practices, you may review the privacy or cookie information published by LearnWorlds, Stripe, and Vimeo.

6. Embedded Video Content

Some Academy programs contain videos delivered through Vimeo.

When a page containing an embedded Vimeo video is loaded or when you play the video, Vimeo may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser or device information, video interactions, and referring-page information. Vimeo may also place functional cookies or similar technologies.

Where applicable, Vimeo-related optional cookies will be controlled through the Website’s cookie-preference system. Rejecting these cookies may affect your ability to view embedded video content or retain player preferences.

Videos created using animation, recording, or artificial-intelligence production tools do not require those creation tools to be listed in this Cookie Policy when the completed video is exported and uploaded directly to LearnWorlds or Vimeo.

If content is later embedded directly from another provider, we will review this policy and update it where appropriate.

7. Payment Cookies

Membership payments are processed through Stripe.

When you proceed to checkout, Stripe may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Process the transaction

• Maintain the checkout session

• Authenticate the payment

• Detect and prevent fraud

• Protect the security of its services

• Meet financial and regulatory requirements

Stripe’s strictly necessary payment cookies may be used when you request checkout or payment services. Blocking these cookies may prevent a payment from being completed.

Future Studies Academy does not store complete payment-card numbers or card security codes.

8. Consent and Control

When you first visit the Website, you may be shown a cookie banner that allows you to accept, reject, or manage non-essential cookies.

You can:

• Accept available cookie categories

• Reject all non-essential cookies

• Select individual cookie categories

• Review or change your cookie preferences later

Strictly necessary cookies do not require optional consent because they support the operation, security, and requested functionality of the Website and Platform.

Rejecting optional cookies will not prevent you from accessing the general Website, although certain features, including embedded video functionality, may be limited.

If you are signed in, you may also be able to review your selections through your Account’s privacy settings.

9. Browser Controls

Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings.

Your available options may include:

• Blocking all cookies

• Blocking third-party cookies

• Deleting existing cookies

• Receiving a warning before a cookie is stored

• Limiting cross-site tracking

Browser controls operate separately from the Academy’s cookie-preference tool. If you delete existing cookies, the Website may no longer remember your previous preference, and you may be asked to make a new selection.

Blocking all cookies may prevent essential Website and Platform functions from working correctly.

Instructions are generally available through the help or privacy section of browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge.

10. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when:

• Our Website or Platform changes

• We introduce or remove a service or integration

• A provider changes its cookies or technologies

• Our legal or regulatory responsibilities change

• We revise our privacy or security practices

The revised Cookie Policy will be posted on the Website with an updated effective date.

Where a change materially affects how optional cookies are used, we may provide additional notice or request a new cookie preference where appropriate.
