Understanding Our Cookie Policy

How Northstar Growth Advisory uses cookies to improve your website experience and the choices available to you.

What This Policy Covers

This Cookie Policy explains how Northstar Growth Advisory uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and related pages that link to this policy. Last updated: August 4, 2026.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, and local storage that help our site function, remember preferences, and understand usage patterns.

Some cookies are first-party cookies set by our website. Others are third-party cookies set by service providers we use, such as analytics, security, or embedded content providers, and may be read by those third parties.

Depending on how they are used, cookies and identifiers can be treated as personal information or personal data when they relate to, describe, or could reasonably be linked to you, your household, or your device and browsing activity.

Where required, we request your consent before placing non-essential cookies or accessing information on your device. For example, EU and UK rules generally require clear information and a real choice to accept or refuse non-essential cookies, with limited exceptions for strictly necessary use.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly, including contact requests, inquiries, and business communications.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. We will revise the date above when we publish changes.

This Cookie Policy is provided for transparency and operational clarity. It is not legal advice, and you should consult your own counsel if you need guidance on compliance obligations for your organization.

How We Use Cookies

Specific purposes tied to how visitors interact with our site and services.

Purposes and Legal Bases

We use strictly necessary cookies to operate core site features you request, such as page navigation, form submissions, and maintaining basic session continuity. Without these, the site may not function reliably.

We use preference cookies to remember settings you choose, for example consent selections or display preferences. These reduce repetitive prompts and help keep your experience consistent across visits.

We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors find and use our content, which pages perform well, and where users encounter friction. We use these insights to improve clarity, speed, and content usefulness.

We may use marketing or measurement cookies to understand what content leads to inquiries and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns. Where implemented, these cookies help attribute visits and conversions across channels.

We use security-related cookies and similar signals to help protect the site, detect suspicious activity, and reduce abuse, for example repeated automated submissions. These technologies support the confidentiality and integrity of our services.

Some site features depend on third-party services such as embedded media, scheduling, or document viewers. When those features load, the provider may set or read cookies or similar identifiers under their own policies.

Cookie duration varies. Some cookies are session cookies that expire when you close your browser. Others are persistent cookies that remain for a set period, or until you delete them, to remember preferences or support measurement.

Legal basis depends on where you are and what cookie is used. In some jurisdictions, consent is required for non-essential cookies; in others, we rely on permitted purposes and provide opt-outs where applicable.

You can accept, reject, or limit non-essential cookies through several available mechanisms.

Ways to Manage Cookies

  • Use our cookie banner settings

Updates and Contact

How we update this policy and where to ask questions about our cookie practices.

Policy Changes and Questions

We post updates to this page by revising the text and changing the date at the top. Continued use of the site after updates means you have seen the revised version.

If we make a material change to how non-essential cookies are used, for example introducing a new measurement vendor, we may also provide additional notice through a banner or preference prompt where appropriate.

Questions about this Cookie Policy can be sent through our website contact form. Northstar Growth Advisory operates from Austin, Texas, and supports clients across the United States.

If you are making a privacy request, for example requesting access, deletion, or correction where applicable, please follow the instructions in our Privacy Policy so we can verify and route your request correctly.

If we engage in activities that trigger additional disclosures or opt-out links under certain laws, for example sale or sharing concepts in some state privacy laws, we will provide the appropriate mechanism on the relevant pages.

For UK visitors, cookies and similar technologies are regulated under PECR alongside UK GDPR concepts of consent, and regulators have issued detailed guidance on storage and access technologies and consent practices.

Third-party cookies and embedded services are governed by the third party's settings and policies. Your choices with us may not automatically apply to those third parties, so you should review their controls if you use embedded features.

If any part of this policy is unclear, contact us before relying on it for compliance decisions. We aim to be precise and transparent about how our site uses cookies and how you can control them.
