Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and remember certain information. This Cookie Policy covers cookies and similar technologies including web beacons, pixel tags, local storage, and session storage (collectively, "cookies").

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy (strata-solas.com/privacy). Strata Solas Wealth Management LLC is the data controller responsible for cookies set on strata-solas.com.

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies — Legal Basis: Legitimate Interests / Contract Performance (no consent required)

These cookies are essential for the Site to function and are set automatically. They do not require your consent. Blocking these cookies may prevent the Site from functioning properly. No profiling or behavioral tracking occurs through these cookies.

2.2 Analytics Cookies — Legal Basis: Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) / ePrivacy Directive)

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting anonymized usage data. They are only set after you provide explicit consent via the cookie banner. Analytics data does not identify individual users and is not used for advertising. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Google Analytics Configuration: Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization enabled (IP addresses are truncated before storage). We do not use Google Analytics advertising features, remarketing, or User ID features. When you consent to analytics cookies, you also consent to the transfer of anonymized usage data to Google LLC in the United States. Google processes this data subject to Standard Contractual Clauses and EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) certification. For more information: policies.google.com/privacy.

When you first visit the Site, a cookie consent banner will appear. You can choose:

• Accept all cookies — enables all optional cookie categories;
• Accept necessary only — only strictly necessary cookies will be set;
• Manage preferences — granularly select which optional categories to accept.

Analytics cookies are NOT set until you provide explicit consent. Pre-ticked boxes are not used. Rejecting optional cookies is as easy as accepting them. Your preferences are saved for 12 months.

You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the Site footer, or by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the Site. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. No analytics data is retained after consent is withdrawn from that point forward.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings:

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled via the consent banner, but can be blocked through browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the Site from functioning. Blocking analytics cookies will not affect core Site functionality.

We do not permit advertising, behavioral tracking, or social media cookies from third parties on this Site. The only third-party cookies are Google Analytics, as described in Section 2.2 above. We have no advertising or monetization arrangements involving user data.

If you are located in the United Kingdom, this Cookie Policy applies to you under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). The lawful basis for analytics cookies is your explicit consent via the banner. You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe we have not handled your cookie data correctly. EEA residents may contact their national supervisory authority.

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. Our Site does not currently respond to DNT signals as there is no universally accepted standard. You can manage your tracking preferences through our cookie consent banner instead.

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Last Updated" date. Where required by law, we will refresh your consent for new or changed cookie uses.
