Cookie policy
This policy explains how Stonegate Financial Review uses cookies on intel-report.digital. For broader data practices, see our privacy notice.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences, keep essential features working, and — if you allow — understand how pages are used.
Types we use
Essential cookies are required for basic functions such as remembering your cookie preference and keeping form security workable. These do not require consent under UK rules for strictly necessary storage.
Analytics cookies help us understand aggregate visit patterns (for example, which guides are read most). They run only if you choose Accept on the cookie banner. Rejecting optional cookies does not block consultations, forms, or reading the site.
Cookies table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| stonegate_cookie_consent | Stores whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies | 1 year (localStorage) | Stonegate Financial Review |
| _sg_session | Essential session continuity for form submissions on this static host | Session | Stonegate Financial Review |
| _sg_analytics | Optional anonymised page-view counts to improve guide topics | 6 months | Stonegate Financial Review (first-party) |
How to manage or disable cookies
On your first visit, a banner lets you Accept or Reject optional cookies. Your choice is stored under the
brand-prefixed key stonegate_cookie_consent. To change your mind, clear site data for intel-report.digital
in your browser settings and reload the page so the banner appears again.
You can also block cookies entirely through browser settings. Blocking essential storage may reset preferences each visit but will not prevent you from reading pages or sending an enquiry.
Third-party cookies
Embedded fonts may be requested from Google Fonts; that request can expose your IP address to Google. We do not load third-party advertising cookies. If we add a third-party analytics provider in future, this table will be updated before those cookies are used.
Impact of disabling
Disabling optional analytics only limits our ability to see which guides help visitors. Essential site features — navigation, contact forms, and consultation pages — remain available.
