Cookie Policy

A plain-language guide to cookies, browser storage and the controls available to you.

Review draft · Prepared 17 September 2026

This page is a draft for legal review. It is not yet an effective policy.

1. What cookies and browser storage do

Cookies are small values stored by your browser and sent with matching website requests. Local storage is another way a website can save information on a device. These technologies can support essential functions, preferences, measurement or advertising.

Not every site uses every category. A cookie policy should describe the actual technologies in use, who provides them and how long they last.

2. Cookies on the Global website

The current Global website does not have an intentionally configured advertising or analytics tracking integration. Technical cookies or storage associated with hosting, security or service delivery may still depend on the environment in which the website operates.

If optional cookies or similar technologies are introduced, this policy should identify their providers, purposes and duration, and the website should offer any consent controls required by applicable law.

3. Understanding cookie categories

Cookies and similar technologies are commonly grouped by purpose. These descriptions explain the categories; they do not mean that every category is active on this website.

  • Essential: functions needed to provide a requested service or maintain security.
  • Preferences: optional choices remembered between visits.
  • Analytics: measurements used to understand traffic and improve pages.
  • Advertising: technologies used to profile audiences or target promotions.

4. Managing your browser settings

You can use your browser’s privacy settings to inspect, block or delete cookies and site data. Deleting storage may reset preferences or affect features on websites that depend on it. Blocking third-party cookies does not necessarily block every form of tracking.

Where optional technologies require consent, you should be able to choose whether to allow them and later change that choice. Essential technologies may be needed to provide a requested function. Browser controls remain available, but they do not replace any consent controls the website is required to provide.

5. Country websites and external services

Links to the India, Canada and USA platforms open separate websites. Cookie choices on one domain may not apply to another. Review each destination’s privacy and cookie information.

If embedded media or other third-party features are added to Global, their providers and storage behavior must be included in the inventory.

6. Questions and updates

Contact the Global team if you have a question about cookies or browser storage. This policy may be updated when website technologies or providers change. Read the Privacy Policy for information about inquiries and your privacy choices.
