Cookie Policy
§ 01What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device to remember information between page loads or visits. Similar technologies — local storage, session storage and pixel tags — perform comparable functions and we treat them the same way for the purposes of this Policy.
§ 02How we use cookies
We use a deliberately small number of cookies. The site is designed to function without analytics or marketing tracking, and we do not embed third-party scripts that would set cookies on your device unless you have given consent through our consent banner.
§ 03Categories
- Strictly necessary — required for the site to function and for your privacy preferences to be remembered. Always on; you cannot opt out without losing core functionality.
- Analytics — would help us understand aggregate usage patterns. Off by default. None currently active.
- Marketing — would support advertising measurement or personalisation. Off by default. None currently active.

§ 05Third-party cookies
No third-party cookies are currently embedded in this site. If we add any in future, we will update this table, surface them through the consent banner, and treat your prior consent state as inapplicable to the new categories until you reaffirm it.
§ 06Managing cookies in your browser
You can manage or delete cookies directly in your browser. The settings are typically found at:
- Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox— Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari — Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data
§ 07Withdrawing consent
You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing the nsa_cookie_consent_v1 entry from your browser's local storage or by writing to us at info@next-step-advisory.com. The next visit will present the consent banner afresh.
§ 08Changes
We will keep this Policy in step with the cookies we actually set. The effective date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
