COOKIE POLICY
Technology choices under user control
-
This Cookie Policy explains how Coastlight Global Risk uses cookies, local storage and comparable technologies across its public website.
The policy distinguishes technologies required for the requested digital service from optional technologies activated through the user’s consent choice.
-
Cookies are small data records stored through a browser. Similar technologies may store information locally, retrieve a previously recorded preference or support communication between a website and a service provider.
Depending on purpose, these technologies may support:
- website delivery and security;
- consent choices;
- language selection;
- accessibility and interface preferences;
- session continuity;
- forms and interactive features;
- audience measurement;
- embedded or external services.
Each active technology should have a defined purpose, duration, provider and legal basis.
-
Optional technologies are activated only after the relevant consent choice has been recorded.
Consent can be given or withheld by category and can be changed later through Cookie Settings.
Technologies required to provide a digital service expressly requested by the user may operate without optional consent where the applicable legal conditions are met.
A technology is classified as essential according to its actual function and necessity rather than its provider or label.
-
Current preferences can be reviewed or changed at any time through:
COOKIE SETTINGS
Cookie Settings
Changing a preference affects future processing. Technologies already stored may also be removed through the browser or device settings where appropriate.
Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before the withdrawal.
-
The categories used in this Cookie Policy and in Cookie Settings are aligned as follows.
Strictly necessary
Strictly necessary technologies support website delivery, network security, consent recording and functions required to provide a service requested by the visitor.
These may include security and traffic-management functions, storage of consent preferences, required session functions, requested language settings and the technical operation of website forms.
Consent is not requested where the technology is strictly necessary for the requested service.
Preferences and functionality
Preference and functionality technologies remember optional choices or provide enhanced website functions.
These technologies are activated only where the applicable consent or preference has been recorded.
Analytics and measurement
Where enabled, analytics and measurement technologies help Coastlight understand website traffic, performance and interaction in order to improve the digital experience.
Technologies in this category are activated only after the required consent has been recorded. Squarespace distinguishes its analytics and performance cookies from essential website cookies and permits them to be restricted through the consent settings.
External media and services
External media and service technologies may be used where content or functionality is supplied by a third party.
Where consent is required, the relevant service remains blocked until the visitor’s choice has been recorded.
Marketing
Coastlight does not use advertising or cross-site marketing cookies on this website.
The technologies currently in use, their providers, purposes and available choices are shown through Cookie Settings.
-
The cookies and comparable technologies currently used on this website are listed in Cookie Settings.
Where applicable, the register identifies the provider, category, purpose, technology type, storage duration and relevant privacy information.
The register is updated when the website’s technical configuration or service providers change.
-
The website uses technical services provided by Squarespace, Cloudflare, Weglot and the consent-management platform.
Depending on the active configuration, additional technologies may support analytics, website forms, fonts, external media, research links, interactive components or protected access.
The specific cookies and comparable technologies currently in use are listed in Cookie Settings.
This does not mean that every service uses cookies or requires consent.
-
The website may use local storage, session storage, scripts, pixels, tags or comparable technologies.
The applicable legal and consent treatment depends on each technology’s function, the information stored or accessed and whether it is strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the visitor.
Where used, these technologies are listed alongside cookies in Cookie Settings.
-
Where a user chooses to activate a third-party service, that provider may receive technical information such as an IP address, browser information, page context and service-specific identifiers.
The relevant provider may process information under its own terms and privacy information.
Coastlight identifies the provider, purpose and available control before an optional service is activated.
-
Browsers and devices provide additional controls for deleting, restricting or blocking cookies and local storage.
Blocking strictly necessary technology may affect the availability of requested website functions.
Browser controls operate alongside the Coastlight consent manager and may remove stored choices.
-
Cookies and similar technologies may operate:
- for the duration of the active browser session;
- until a defined expiry date;
- until the user changes the relevant preference;
- until the technology is removed through browser or device controls.
The exact duration for each active technology is stated in the verified register.
-
Where a cookie or comparable technology involves personal data, the processing is also governed by the Privacy Notice.
PRIVACY NOTICE
The Privacy Notice provides information on legal bases, recipients, international transfers, retention and individual rights.
-
This Policy is updated when technologies, providers, purposes, consent settings or applicable requirements change.
