About This Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how and why AscendX uses cookies, pixels, and similar tracking technologies on ascendxassociates.com. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we process personal data more broadly.

Cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, improve performance, deliver a smoother experience, and support analytics and marketing activity. You can adjust or withdraw your consent at any time using our cookie settings.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. They store information that allows certain functions to work, such as remembering preferences, improving load speed, measuring site usage, or enabling marketing attribution.

We also use related technologies such as pixels, tags, and local storage. These operate in a similar way and are included in this policy.

How We Use Cookies

AscendX Associates uses a combination of first party cookies (set by us) and third party cookies (set by trusted tools or partners). These cookies support:

• Essential website functionality
• Analytics and performance measurement
• User experience and preference management
• Marketing attribution and campaign reporting

We only set non essential cookies (analytics, marketing, attribution) if you give consent using our cookie banner.

Types of Cookies We Use

The cookies we use fall into the following categories:

• Necessary: Required for the site to function correctly. These cookies enable core features such as page navigation, form submissions, security protections, and session stability.
• Performance & Analytics: Help us understand how visitors interact with the site, for example which pages are most viewed, how users navigate, and where improvements are needed.
• Functional: Remember user choices and improve your browsing experience, such as remembering cookie settings or supporting certain embedded features.
• Marketing & Attribution: Used to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and understand how users found AscendX. These help inform our marketing decisions but do not affect your ability to use the website.
• Unclassified: Cookies that may appear through third party tools and are still being reviewed and categorised.

Some cookies come from trusted partners that help us run analytics, hosting, or marketing activities. These may include:

• Google Analytics
• LinkedIn Insight Tag
• Google Ads / Tag Manager
• Squarespace platform cookies
• Cloud infrastructure and security providers

These tools may set their own cookies and process information in accordance with their privacy policies. We ensure all partners meet appropriate data protection standards.
