New England Training

Effective Date: September 9, 2026

This policy is issued by Adam D. Smith, LLC ("ADSLLC") and covers every website and brand ADSLLC operates, including New England Training at newenglandtraining.com, Ummah English at www.ummahenglish.com and the company site at www.adamdsmithllc.com (together, the "Site"). The Site may use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive by a website. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. We may use both session cookies (which expire when you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Site.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Adam D. Smith, LLC pages or register with the Site or our services, a cookie helps Adam D. Smith, LLC to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. When you log in again, the details held on your account, such as your name, email address and billing address, are available without re-entering them.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Site.

Types of Cookies We Use

We may use the following types of cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies. Our website requires the use of these cookies to properly operate or provide necessary functions relating to the services you request. They include cookies that do the following:
  • logging you into the Site securely and keeping you logged in
  • paying for a course seat or examiner marking (Stripe sets its own cookies on its checkout pages under Stripe's cookie policy)
  • keeping your test sessions secure so that each attempt is tied to your account
  • protecting the Site from automated abuse (the Cloudflare network in front of the Site may set a short-lived security cookie)

The login cookie is a session cookie that expires when you close your browser or when your login times out. Its purpose is proper website function, account security and exam integrity.

• Analytical/performance cookies. We do not use analytics cookies. Once you are logged in, the Site records your course activity (pages opened, tests attempted, answers submitted) against your account so that we can mark your work and support you. That record is kept on our server, not in a cookie, and is described in our Privacy Policy.

• Functionality cookies. These cookies enable helpful but non-essential website functions that improve your website experience. By recognizing you when you return to our website, they may, for example, allow us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name, or remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region). These cookies may enable visitor identification over time, but not across different websites. These persistent cookies last for a set period (about 60 days for the cookie that remembers your username) or until you delete them. Their purpose is proper website function.

• Advertising, tracking or targeting cookies. We do not use these. There is no advertising on the Site, and we do not set cookies that track your interests or follow you to other websites.

Reviewing Our Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy can be located here: https://newenglandtraining.com/admin/tool/policy/viewall.php

Our Privacy Policy describes our practices for any personal data that our first-party cookies collect, store, or use. We rely on the following legal bases to process personal data collected through our first-party cookies: performance of our contract with you (delivering the course and tests you enrolled in), our legitimate interest in keeping the Site secure and working properly, and, for any cookie that is not strictly necessary, your consent.

Your Cookie Choices

You may withdraw your consent for our use of any cookies that are not strictly necessary. You may do so at any time by contacting us.

Most web browsers allow you to directly block all cookies, or just third-party cookies, through your browser settings. Using your browser settings to block all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, may interfere with proper site operation.

Changes to Our Cookie Uses

We reserve the right to change this cookie policy as we may deem necessary or as may be required by law. We will post any changes to the way we use cookies on this page and/or indicate on our website that we updated this cookie policy. Your continued use of this website after we make a change is deemed to be an acceptance of those changes.
