Cookie Policy

Which cookies cornerstone-retirement.com uses, what each one does, and how to change your choice.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Some are deleted when you close your browser ("session" cookies); others stay until they expire or you delete them ("persistent" cookies). Similar technologies, such as tags, pixels and your browser's local storage, work in the same way, and this policy calls them all "cookies".

How we use them

On cornerstone-retirement.com (the "Site") cookies help us:

  • make the Site work and keep its forms secure;
  • remember your cookie choice;
  • understand how visitors find and use the Site, so we can improve it;

Only strictly necessary cookies are set before you make a choice. Others are set only if you accept them.

Strictly necessary

Needed for the Site to work and to keep it secure. They can't be switched off, but they don't identify you personally.

Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager to load the tools above. Tag Manager itself doesn't set cookies or collect personal information; it only starts the tools you have agreed to.

Embedded content

If a page includes content from another service, such as a video or a social media post, that service may set its own cookies when the content loads. Those cookies are governed by the provider's own policy.

Changing your choice

  • Cookie banner: use the cookie settings link in the Site's footer at any time to change your choice.
  • Your browser: most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop forms from working.
  • Google: the Google Analytics opt-out add-on and Google Ad Settings.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. There is no agreed standard for responding to it, so the Site doesn't change its behavior when it receives one; use the cookie banner instead.

More information

How we handle personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy. We may update this Cookie Policy when the tools we use change; the date at the top shows the latest version.
