Cookie Policy
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use them, and similar technologies such as local storage, for the purposes described below. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
2. Your Choices
When you first visit StockScore, you can accept all cookies, reject everything except strictly necessary cookies, or customise your choice by category. You can change your mind at any time using the link in the footer of every page. Turning off a category takes effect immediately - for example, disabling analytics stops any further analytics events from being sent straight away.
3. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These are always active, since the site cannot work properly without them. They do not require your consent.
| Name / purpose | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Sign-in session and authentication tokens | Amazon Cognito (StockScore) | Until you sign out, or your session expires |
| Your cookie-consent choice itself | StockScore (stored in your browser's local storage) | Until you change it, or we change what cookies do |
4. Analytics Cookies (only with your consent)
We use PostHog to understand how visitors use StockScore, so we can improve it. This is only loaded if you consent to the "Analytics" category.
| Name / purpose | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Usage analytics (page views, feature usage, session replay) | PostHog, Inc. (United States) | Set by PostHog; cleared if you withdraw consent |
5. Advertising Cookies (only with your consent)
The "Advertising" category exists so that, once this feature is live, we can use Meta's Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our own ad campaigns for visitors who consent. As of the date at the foot of this page, this integration has not yet been activated on the live site - choosing to allow this category currently has no effect, since no advertising cookie is actually set. We will update this table when it goes live.
| Name / purpose | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Ad measurement (Meta Pixel) - not yet active | Meta Platforms, Inc. (United States) | Not applicable - not yet in use |
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy if the cookies we use change - for example, when the advertising category above goes live. We will update the date below when we do.
