Understanding how virelliosand.com uses tracking technologies to enhance your budgeting experience

Last updated: January 2025

What Are Tracking Technologies?

When you visit virelliosand.com, we use small data files called cookies and similar tracking technologies to make your budgeting experience smoother and more personalized. Think of cookies as helpful notes that remember your preferences — like whether you prefer viewing your budget in monthly or weekly views, or which currency format you've selected.

These technologies work quietly in the background, storing information about how you interact with our platform. Some cookies are essential — without them, you wouldn't be able to log into your account or save your budget categories. Others help us understand which features you use most, so we can continue improving our service.

Essential Cookies

These cookies keep virelliosand.com functioning properly and cannot be disabled. They handle your login sessions, remember your account preferences, and ensure security features work correctly.

Functional Cookies

These enhance your experience by remembering choices you make, such as your preferred dashboard layout, notification settings, or which budget categories you view first.

Analytics Cookies

We use these to understand how people use our budgeting tools. This data helps us identify which features are most valuable and where we might need to make improvements.

Marketing Cookies

These cookies help us show you relevant content about budgeting tips and financial planning resources. They also help us measure how effective our educational content is.

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

Every month, our tracking data helps us make virelliosand.com work better for people managing their finances. For instance, when we noticed that many users were struggling to find the bill reminder feature, we moved it to a more prominent location on the dashboard. That change happened because analytics showed us where people were clicking and where they seemed to get stuck.

Functional cookies make your daily budgeting routine smoother too. When you set up custom spending categories or choose to view your expenses in a specific currency, these preferences stick around between visits. Without these cookies, you'd have to reconfigure everything each time you logged in — which would be pretty frustrating when you're trying to quickly check your monthly spending.

Managing Your Browser Settings

While we'd recommend keeping functional cookies enabled for the best experience, you have complete control over cookie settings through your browser. Each browser handles this differently, but the process is generally straightforward once you know where to look.

Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from accessing your account, while disabling functional cookies means you'll lose personalized settings between visits. Analytics and marketing cookies can be safely disabled without affecting your ability to use virelliosand.com's core budgeting features.
