GradTraders Legal & Privacy

Cookie Policy

Last updated: 10 September 2026 Applies to: gradtraders.com Consent managed with Complianz

About This Cookie Policy

GradTraders uses cookies and similar storage technologies to operate the website, remember consent choices, understand how the site is used and, where relevant, provide third-party features such as embedded video.

This policy explains the types of technologies that may be used, why they are used, how long they may remain on a device, which third parties may be involved and how visitors can control their choices.

The detailed cookie and service inventory further down this page is supplied dynamically from the GradTraders Complianz setup and Cookiedatabase.org. It is intended to reflect the site’s current detected technologies rather than a manually maintained static list.

What Are Cookies And Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small files or pieces of information stored on or read from a browser or device when a website is used. Similar technologies can include browser storage, pixels, scripts and other methods that store or access information on a device.

Some technologies are required for the website to work or to remember privacy choices. Others may be used for statistics, embedded third-party content or other non-essential purposes and are controlled through the site’s consent settings where required.

How GradTraders Uses Cookies

Functional

Used for essential website operation, security, technical functionality, caching and remembering cookie-consent choices. These technologies may be used where they are necessary to provide the website or a service requested by the visitor.

Statistics

Used to understand how visitors interact with GradTraders, such as which pages are visited and how the site performs. Where consent is required, statistical technologies are not intended to be enabled until the visitor has made that choice.

Marketing & Third-Party Content

Certain third-party services, including embedded media, may use storage or tracking technologies. Where these technologies are not strictly necessary, GradTraders uses its consent controls to manage them.

Services Used On GradTraders

The exact technologies can change as the website changes. The current Complianz scan identifies services including WordPress, Complianz, LiteSpeed, Google Analytics and YouTube. The live inventory below is the authoritative on-page list for detected cookies and services.

Website operation WordPress and related site functionality may use technical storage needed for normal website operation.
Consent management Complianz is used to record and apply cookie-consent preferences and to maintain the site’s detected cookie inventory.
Performance & caching LiteSpeed is used as part of the website’s performance and caching setup.
Website statistics Google Analytics may be used to understand website usage, subject to the site’s consent configuration and applicable requirements.
Embedded video YouTube is used for embedded GradTraders video content. YouTube-related technologies may be controlled by consent before embedded content is activated.
External links GradTraders also links to third-party websites. A normal outbound link does not by itself mean that the linked service is embedded on the GradTraders page; once a visitor leaves GradTraders, the destination site’s own privacy and cookie terms apply.

Current Cookie And Service Inventory

The list below is generated from the site’s Complianz cookie database. It can include the service or provider, purpose, cookie or storage name, category and retention or expiration information where that information is available.

Because this inventory is synchronized rather than manually hard-coded into this policy, it can be updated as GradTraders’ detected technologies change.

Cookie Duration And Third Parties

Some cookies last only for a browser session, while others can remain for a defined period or until they are removed. The live inventory above provides the available retention or expiration information for individual technologies.

Where a third-party service stores or accesses information, the live inventory identifies the relevant service where available. Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy terms as well as the controls applied by GradTraders.

Your Cookie Choices

Where consent is required, visitors can choose whether to allow non-essential categories. Consent can also be changed or withdrawn later through the GradTraders consent controls.

You have loaded the Cookie Policy without javascript support. On AMP, you can use the manage consent button on the bottom of the page.
  • You can accept or reject available non-essential cookie categories through the GradTraders consent controls.
  • You can return to the consent controls to change your choices.
  • You can delete or block cookies using your browser settings, although this may affect some website functions.
  • Changing browser or device settings may not automatically change consent choices stored on another browser or device.

Embedded YouTube Content

GradTraders publishes and embeds YouTube videos and Shorts. Embedded YouTube content can involve third-party technologies and data transfers when the content is activated. GradTraders uses its consent-management setup to control this content where consent is required.

A visitor can still use the rest of the GradTraders website without choosing to activate non-essential embedded content.

Changes To The Technologies We Use

GradTraders may add, remove or change website services over time. The Complianz website scan and synchronized cookie inventory are used to help keep the technical list on this page current.

This written policy may also be updated where the site’s use of cookies, consent controls, applicable law or third-party services changes materially.

Your Privacy Rights

Cookie and similar-technology use can also involve the processing of personal data. Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, visitors may have rights relating to their personal data, including access, correction, deletion, objection or withdrawal of consent.

More information about how GradTraders handles personal data is available in the Privacy Policy.
