Cookie Policy

Effective Date: February 2026
We use cookies to make your training experience smoother, faster, and more relevant. This Cookie Policy explains how Opus Marketplace LLC (dba TIC Training Center) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our platform. By clicking "Accept" on our cookie banner, or by saving your preferences in our Cookie manager, you agree to this policy.

1. What are Cookies? 

Cookies are tiny text files saved to your computer or device that help our platform remember you.
We use both "session" cookies (which disappear the moment you close your browser) and "persistent" cookies (which stay on your device for a set period to remember your preferences for your next visit).

2. How We Use Cookies 

We strictly limit our use of cookies to what is necessary to run the platform and improve your experience.
Our site uses both "first-party cookies" (placed directly by us to keep the site running) and "third-party cookies" (placed by trusted partners for analytics and marketing).
We categorize our cookies into the following types:
  • Strictly Necessary: These are essential for the site to function. They let you log in, navigate your courses, and process payments securely.
  • Functionality: These remember your choices (like your username or language preference) to give you a customized experience.
  • Analytics: These help us understand how you use the site (like which features you use) so we can continuously improve the platform.
  • Marketing/Targeting: These track your browsing habits to help us and our partners deliver more relevant advertising to you on other sites.

3. The Cookies We Actually Use 

We believe in total transparency about the specific trackers running on our platform.
Below is the exact breakdown of the first-party and third-party cookies we use, why we need them, and how long they stay on your device.
