Cookie Policy

Understanding how we use cookies to improve your learning experience.

Last Updated: April 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how the WIDE Institute of Driving ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website or use our Learning Management System (LMS). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies."

2. How We Use Cookies

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our LMS to operate. We classify our cookies into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its core features, such as accessing secure student or instructor dashboards. Without these cookies, services like user login and course enrollment cannot be provided.
  • Performance & Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions.
  • Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our platform to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

3. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the LMS, deliver advertisements on and through the site, and secure payment processing. Examples include Google Analytics to help us understand how our platform is used, and secure tokens generated by our payment gateways (e.g., Stripe, Selcom) to process your course enrollments safely.

4. How to Manage Your Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, though your access to some functionality—specifically logging into your student dashboard and accessing premium course modules—will be restricted or entirely broken.

To learn how to manage cookies on popular browsers, please visit the help pages of your specific browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, or Microsoft Edge).

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
