Cookie Policy

Effective Date: September 17, 2026
Last Updated: September 17, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how The Digital Self-Reliance and Travel You Life LLC use cookies and similar technologies across DSR websites and related online services.

This policy applies to:

The Digital Self-Reliance is commercially operated through Travel You Life LLC.

For more information about how personal information is handled generally, please review our Privacy Policy.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small files or pieces of information that a website or online service may store on your browser or device.

Cookies and similar technologies can help websites:

  • function correctly,
  • remember settings,
  • maintain sessions,
  • support login,
  • process transactions,
  • measure usage,
  • improve performance,
  • understand traffic,
  • and support advertising or attribution where used.

Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, software development tools, and other mechanisms that store or access information on a device.

How DSR May Use Cookies

DSR websites may use several categories of cookies or similar technologies.

The exact technologies used may change as our websites, platforms, and service providers change.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support functions required for a website or service to operate.

These may be used for purposes such as:

  • website security,
  • fraud prevention,
  • session management,
  • login authentication,
  • account access,
  • shopping or checkout functions,
  • payment workflows,
  • load balancing,
  • and remembering privacy or cookie preferences.

Because these technologies may be necessary to provide a service you request, they may not always be optional.

Where applicable law permits strictly necessary technologies to operate without prior consent, they may be activated automatically.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies may help provide enhanced features or remember choices.

These may support functions such as:

  • language preferences,
  • interface settings,
  • previously selected options,
  • form functionality,
  • or other convenience features.

Where required by applicable law, optional functional cookies will be activated only after appropriate consent.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

DSR may use analytics or performance technologies to understand how visitors use our websites.

These tools may help us understand information such as:

  • pages visited,
  • general traffic patterns,
  • referring sources,
  • device categories,
  • approximate usage behavior,
  • page performance,
  • and technical errors.

We may use this information to improve:

  • website structure,
  • user experience,
  • content,
  • technical performance,
  • and commercial systems.

Where applicable law requires prior consent for non-essential analytics technologies, they will be subject to the applicable consent mechanism.

Marketing, Attribution, or Advertising Technologies

DSR may use marketing, attribution, referral, or advertising technologies in connection with future campaigns or commercial activities.

These technologies may help measure:

  • campaign performance,
  • referral sources,
  • conversions,
  • advertising effectiveness,
  • or interactions across websites and services.

If these technologies are used, they may involve third-party providers.

Where required by applicable law, relevant non-essential technologies will not be activated until appropriate consent has been obtained.

If applicable privacy law provides additional rights relating to the sale, sharing, or use of personal information for certain advertising activities, applicable choices will be provided as required.

Login, Training, and Member Environment Cookies

Private DSR programs, courses, communities, Build Lab environments, or other authenticated services may require technologies that help:

  • recognize your account,
  • maintain a logged-in session,
  • protect account security,
  • provide access to purchased content,
  • remember member state,
  • and operate private features.

The commercial and private DSR environment at www.thedigitalselfreliance.com may use third-party platform infrastructure such as Systeme.io.

Those platforms may set their own cookies or similar technologies in order to provide the relevant service.

Checkout and Payment Technologies

When you purchase a DSR product or service, cookies or similar technologies may be used to:

  • maintain a checkout session,
  • prevent fraud,
  • remember transaction state,
  • provide security,
  • and complete payment.

Payment providers such as Stripe may use their own technologies in connection with payment processing, fraud prevention, authentication, and transaction security.

Those providers operate according to their own privacy and cookie practices.

Scheduling and Meeting Services

If DSR uses third-party tools for:

  • appointment scheduling,
  • calendar integration,
  • video meetings,
  • or related booking functions,

those providers may use cookies or similar technologies necessary to operate their services.

Your interaction with those platforms may also be governed by their own privacy and cookie policies.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

Cookies may be:

First-Party Cookies

Set directly through a DSR website or service.

Third-Party Cookies

Set or accessed by an external service integrated into a DSR property.

Third-party providers may include categories such as:

  • website platforms,
  • hosting providers,
  • membership systems,
  • analytics services,
  • payment processors,
  • scheduling providers,
  • email services,
  • video platforms,
  • marketing systems,
  • and security providers.

The specific providers used by DSR may change over time.

Session and Persistent Cookies

Some cookies are temporary and expire when a browser session ends.

Others may remain for a longer period so that a service can remember:

  • preferences,
  • login state,
  • consent choices,
  • attribution information,
  • or other relevant settings.

The duration of a specific cookie depends on its purpose and the system or provider that sets it.

Cookie Consent

Where applicable law requires consent before a non-essential cookie or similar technology is stored or accessed, DSR intends to use an appropriate consent mechanism.

Depending on your jurisdiction and the technologies active on the site, you may be able to:

  • accept optional cookies,
  • reject optional cookies,
  • choose certain categories,
  • or change your preferences later.

Strictly necessary technologies may continue to operate when they are required to provide a service you request or otherwise qualify for an applicable legal exemption.

Simply continuing to browse should not be treated as valid consent where applicable law requires an affirmative choice.

Changing Your Cookie Preferences

Where a cookie preference or consent tool is available, you may use that tool to change your choices.

You may also be able to manage cookies through your browser.

Most browsers provide settings that allow you to:

  • view stored cookies,
  • delete cookies,
  • block certain cookies,
  • block third-party cookies,
  • or prevent cookies from being stored.

The exact controls depend on your browser and device.

Blocking some technologies may prevent certain website functions from working correctly.

For example, account access, checkout, security, booking, or preference functionality may rely on necessary browser storage.

Browser Privacy Signals

Certain browsers or extensions may send privacy preference signals.

Where applicable law requires DSR or its service providers to recognize a qualifying preference signal, such signals will be handled in accordance with applicable requirements.

The availability and legal effect of browser privacy signals may vary by jurisdiction and by the type of data processing involved.

California Privacy Choices

Certain California residents may have rights concerning the sale or sharing of personal information where applicable law applies.

DSR does not operate as a data broker and does not intentionally sell personal information for monetary consideration.

If DSR later engages in activities legally defined as a sale or sharing of personal information, including certain forms of cross-context behavioral advertising, appropriate notices and opt-out mechanisms will be provided where legally required.

See the Privacy Policy for additional information about privacy rights.

Do Not Track

Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting.

Because there is not one universally applied interpretation of every Do Not Track signal, website behavior may vary depending on the technologies and legal requirements involved.

Where a legally recognized privacy preference signal must be honored, DSR will address that requirement separately from a generic Do Not Track setting.

Third-Party Privacy Practices

Third-party services integrated with DSR may control their own technologies and data practices.

Travel You Life LLC does not determine every cookie or technology used independently by those providers.

We encourage you to review the relevant privacy and cookie information provided by third-party services when you interact with them.

Sensitive Information

DSR does not use ordinary website cookies for the purpose of intentionally collecting highly sensitive information such as:

  • passwords entered into unrelated services,
  • full payment-card numbers,
  • government identification numbers,
  • medical records,
  • or other unrelated sensitive personal data.

You should not submit unnecessary sensitive information through general website forms.

Cookie Information May Change

The specific cookies and technologies active on DSR properties may change when:

  • website systems are updated,
  • platforms change,
  • new services are added,
  • payment or scheduling systems change,
  • analytics tools change,
  • marketing activities change,
  • or service providers modify their own technologies.

For that reason, this policy describes categories and purposes rather than guaranteeing that a fixed list of technical cookie names will remain accurate indefinitely.

Where a consent-management interface provides more detailed current information about active categories or technologies, that interface should be read together with this Cookie Policy.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when:

  • our technology changes,
  • our providers change,
  • legal requirements change,
  • or our cookie practices change.

The Last Updated date at the top of this page will identify the current published version.

Where required, material changes to consent-dependent technologies may result in a new consent request.
