Cookie Policy
Effective date: March 27, 2026 Last updated: September 26, 2026
This page describes what FundMyCourse.ca actually stores in your browser. It is short because we store very little.
Cookies we set
Sign-in cookies (essential). If you create an account and sign in, we set session cookies so you stay signed in as you move between pages. They exist only to make sign-in work. If you never create an account, we set no cookies at all.
That is the whole list. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party cookies of any kind.
Analytics without cookies
We measure traffic with a self-hosted analytics tool (Umami) that does not use cookies and does not identify individual visitors. It tells us things like which pages are read most, so we know which guides to improve. It cannot follow you to other websites.
What we keep in local storage
Some features save their state in your browser's local storage, which stays on your device:
- Saved scholarships. The list you build with the heart button lives in your browser. If you are not signed in, it stays there and we cannot see it. If you are signed in, it is also kept with your account so it appears on every device you sign in on; your browser then also keeps a short code for that account (not your name or email), a copy of the list as your account last had it, and any changes still waiting to reach it.
- Quiz and profile answers, so your matches persist between visits.
- Preferences, such as whether you have dismissed a notice.
Clearing your browser's site data removes all of it. Your quiz answers will be gone, and so will your saved list, unless you saved it while signed in: then it comes back the next time you sign in.
How to control this
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking cookies only affects signing in; browsing, searching, and the quiz work without any cookies.
