This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, how they may be used on Financial Adviser Hub and how visitors can manage their choices.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, tags and software development kits. These technologies can support essential website functions, remember choices, measure usage, protect against abuse and deliver advertising.
Types of cookies that may be used
Strictly necessary cookies
These support functions needed for the website to operate securely and reliably. They may be used for security, load balancing, consent records, session management or remembering a choice that a visitor has already made. Because these cookies are necessary for a requested service or core operation, consent may not always be required.
Preference cookies
Preference cookies remember settings such as display choices, language or other optional features. Their use depends on the tools enabled on the site.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site, which pages are useful, how people arrive and where technical problems occur. The information may include device type, approximate location, referral source, pages viewed and interactions.
Advertising cookies
Advertising services may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver and measure adverts, control how often an advert appears, prevent fraud and, where consent is given, personalise advertising.
Financial Adviser Hub may use Google advertising products. Google and its partners may process information in accordance with their own policies and the consent choices made by visitors.
Consent and cookie controls
Where consent is required, visitors should be given a clear choice before optional analytics or advertising technologies are used. Consent should be capable of being refused or withdrawn as easily as it is given.
The site’s cookie banner or privacy controls should be used to accept, reject or adjust optional categories. Strictly necessary technologies may continue to operate because the site cannot provide core functions without them.
Google advertising and consent management
When Google advertising products are used for visitors in the UK, European Economic Area or Switzerland, the site may need to use a Google-certified consent management platform and make required disclosures. The exact cookies and partners can vary according to the advertising configuration and the choices made by the visitor.
How long cookies remain
Some cookies expire when the browser closes. Others remain for a defined period so they can remember settings or support measurement. Retention periods depend on the cookie, provider and configuration in use.
Managing cookies through a browser
Most browsers allow cookies to be viewed, blocked or deleted. Blocking all cookies may affect website functionality, including security and consent controls. Browser instructions are normally available through the browser’s privacy or settings menu.
Third-party websites
Links on Financial Adviser Hub may lead to external websites. Those sites may set their own cookies and are governed by their own privacy and cookie notices.
Current cookie details
The exact list of cookies in use should be generated or displayed by the consent-management tool active on the website. This page describes the main categories and purposes, while the live consent interface should provide the most specific current information available.

We may update this policy when technologies, providers or legal requirements change. The review date below shows when it was last substantively checked.
