Effective Date: July 24, 2026
Last Updated: July 24, 2026
Stride Unapologetically™, LLC (“Stride Unapologetically,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with our websites and related digital services.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how they may be used, the categories of cookies and similar technologies that may operate through our websites and service providers, and how you can manage your preferences.
This Cookie Policy should be read with our Privacy Policy.
1. SCOPE OF THIS COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy applies to websites and pages operated by Stride Unapologetically™, LLC, including:
• strideunapologetically.com
• discover.strideunapologetically.com
• explore.strideunapologetically.com
• courses.strideunapologetically.com
• worthyandworthit.com
• Related landing pages, checkout pages, and digital services operated by Stride Unapologetically™
Together, these are referred to as the “Sites.”
This Cookie Policy does not govern cookies or similar technologies placed when you visit a third-party website or platform directly. Those third parties control their own technologies and privacy practices.
2. WHAT COOKIES ARE
Cookies are small text files placed on or accessed through your browser or device when you visit a website.
Cookies may help a website:
• Function properly;
• Maintain secure sessions;
• Remember preferences;
• Process transactions;
• Deliver requested content;
• Measure engagement;
• Prevent fraud;
• Identify technical problems; and
• Improve performance.
Some cookies are placed directly by the website you visit. These are commonly called first-party cookies.
Other cookies are placed by service providers whose technology is used on the website. These are commonly called third-party cookies.
Cookies may remain only for the duration of a browser session or may remain for a longer period unless deleted or expired.
3. SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
We and our service providers may also use technologies that operate similarly to cookies, including:
• Pixels;
• Web beacons;
• Local storage;
• Software development tools;
• Device or browser identifiers;
• Authentication tokens;
• Embedded scripts; and
• Similar technologies.
For convenience, this Policy refers to cookies and these related technologies collectively as “cookies.”
4. HOW WE USE COOKIES
Cookies may be used to:
• Operate and secure the Sites;
• Maintain website and account functionality;
• Remember user preferences;
• Process payments;
• Prevent fraud and unauthorized access;
• Deliver private audio content;
• Administer email communications;
• Support access to program materials;
• Measure email and audio engagement;
• Diagnose technical issues; and
• Maintain records of cookie choices.
We do not currently use cookies for cross-site behavioral advertising.
We do not currently use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Google Ads conversion tracking, TikTok Pixel, Pinterest advertising tags, Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity, third-party session replay, or affiliate-tracking technology.
If we add analytics, advertising, session-replay, affiliate-tracking, or similar nonessential technology later, we will update this Cookie Policy and the cookie-consent settings before or when the technology is activated.
5. COOKIE CATEGORIES
The categories available through our cookie-consent tool may include the following.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the Sites and related services to function.
They may support:
• Website security;
• Page navigation;
• Form operation;
• Account access;
• Session management;
• Payment processing;
• Fraud prevention;
• Cookie-preference storage; and
• Other essential functions.
Strictly necessary cookies cannot ordinarily be disabled through the cookie-preference center because the Sites may not function properly without them.
You may be able to block them through your browser, but doing so may prevent parts of the Sites from working.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies support optional features and preferences.
They may be used to:
• Remember selections;
• Support embedded content;
• Maintain user preferences;
• Improve convenience; or
• Enable optional website functionality.
Functional cookies are used only when applicable and, where required, after you provide permission.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help website operators understand how visitors interact with a website.
We do not currently use a separate third-party website analytics platform such as Google Analytics.
Our service providers may still provide limited operational or engagement information connected to the services they provide, including page activity, email engagement, private-audio access, or listening information.
If a separate analytics platform is added later, analytics cookies will be described in this Policy and controlled through the cookie-preference center where required.
Advertising Cookies
Advertising cookies may be used to deliver, measure, or personalize advertising across websites.
We do not currently use advertising cookies or cross-site behavioral advertising tools.
If advertising technology is added later, it will be disclosed and controlled through the cookie-preference center as required.

7. COOKIEYES COOKIE NOTICE AND PREFERENCE CENTER
We use CookieYes to provide a cookie notice and preference center.
When the cookie notice appears, you may be able to:
• Accept all cookies;

Strictly necessary cookies remain active because they are required for the Sites to function.
Your available choices may depend on:
• The cookies detected on the relevant Site;
• The page or service being used;
• Your location;
• Your browser;
• The CookieYes configuration; and
• Applicable legal requirements.
You may change or withdraw your cookie preferences through the Cookie Settings control available on the Site.
8. CHANGING YOUR COOKIE PREFERENCES
You may revisit your cookie choices at any time by selecting the Cookie Settings link or control provided on the Site.
Changing your preferences will affect future cookie use. It may not automatically remove all information previously collected by a service provider before the preference was changed.
If the Cookie Settings link is placed in the website footer, it should reopen the CookieYes preference center.
9. BROWSER CONTROLS
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, block, or restrict cookies.
Browser settings vary. Consult your browser’s official support documentation for current instructions.
Common browser controls may allow you to:
• Delete stored cookies;

Blocking all cookies may affect:
• Website operation;
• Forms;

Browser controls operate separately from the CookieYes preference center.

• Deliver requested content;
• Understand email engagement;
• Improve communications;

These technologies may be strictly necessary to complete and secure a transaction.
13. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES AND EMBEDDED SERVICES
The Sites may link to or use services operated by third parties.
When you interact with a third-party service, that provider may place its own cookies or similar technologies.
Third-party services maintain their own:
• Privacy policies;
• Cookie policies;
• Terms;
• Retention practices; and
• User controls.
Stride Unapologetically™ does not control every cookie or technology used by an independently operated third-party service.
14. DO NOT TRACK AND PRIVACY PREFERENCE SIGNALS
Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” settings or other privacy preference signals.
There is no single universally adopted response standard for every browser signal.
We do not currently use cross-site behavioral advertising tools.
If we later introduce technology subject to a legally recognized opt-out preference signal, we will configure the Sites to respond as required and update this Policy.
15. RETENTION OF COOKIE INFORMATION
How long a cookie remains on a device depends on its purpose and configuration.
Cookies may be:
• Session cookies that expire when the browser is closed; or
• Persistent cookies that remain until they expire or are deleted.
CookieYes may retain a record of cookie choices for the period established in its configuration.
Other service providers retain cookie-related information according to their own settings, terms, and privacy practices.
The CookieYes preference center may provide more detailed information about detected cookies, including category, provider, purpose, and duration.
16. UPDATES TO THE COOKIE LIST
The specific cookies operating on a Site may change when:
• Website functions change;
• Service providers update their technology;
• A platform is added or removed;
• A cookie expires or is replaced;
• Program delivery changes; or
• The Site is rescanned.
The cookie list and classifications shown in CookieYes should be reviewed after installation and periodically thereafter.
The CookieYes preference center or cookie declaration available on the Site may provide the most current list of detected cookies.
