Cookie Policy

1. What we mean by “cookies”

Browsers often store small pieces of data as HTTP cookies. Our public website primarily uses local storage and session storage in your browser for preferences, consent, and (if you allow it) anonymous visit analytics — not third-party advertising cookies.

For simplicity, our consent banner refers to these technologies as “cookie settings,” because they serve a similar purpose: remembering your choices and optionally measuring site usage.

2. Essential / functional storage

These items are needed for the site to work as expected. They do not require analytics consent:

• Language preference (for example zoador-locale) so the site can show English or Thai.
• Cookie / analytics consent choice (zoador-cookie-consent) so we remember Accept or Essential only, and when you last decided (we may softly re-ask after about 6 months).
• Staff opt-out flag (zoador-no-track) when using the no_track URL parameter.

3. Analytics (optional, consent-based)

If you choose “OK, help improve” (or the equivalent in Thai), we may record anonymous page visits to help plan schedules, branches, and class times. That typically includes:

• A randomly generated visitor ID stored in local storage (zoador-visitor-id).
• Short-lived session keys to avoid duplicate counts within about 30 seconds.
• The page path and, when available, an external referrer — sent to our API and stored for school metrics.

4. When you choose Essential only

If you choose “Essential only,” we do not enable this analytics collection. We also clear the visitor ID and related session keys when consent is withdrawn.

We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Google Tag Manager, or similar third-party advertising trackers on the public website.

5. Portal and admin sessions

The student and admin portals store authentication tokens in local storage after you sign in (for example zoador-student-token or zoador-admin-token), along with locale preferences. These are required to keep you signed in and are not used for public marketing analytics.

Public class booking on the landing site does not require an account and does not set a login cookie.

6. Third-party content

Some pages may load fonts from Google Fonts via Next.js, or embed videos from YouTube (including privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com embeds in news content). Those third parties may set their own cookies or collect data under their policies when content loads.

Our map section uses local images and links out to Google Maps or OpenStreetMap; we do not embed a live map SDK that tracks you on our pages by default.

7. How to change your choice

Use “Cookie settings” / “ตั้งค่าคุกกี้” in the website footer anytime to reopen the banner and switch between analytics and essential-only. You can also clear site data in your browser settings.

8. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies change. The “Last updated” date will reflect the latest revision.
