Cookies policy

This page explains what cookies are, which ones this site uses, and how you can manage them.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They can be essential for basic functions or optional for measuring how pages are used.

How we use cookies

Steadfast Path Advisory uses essential cookies to remember cookie preferences and keep the site usable. Optional analytics cookies load only if you choose Accept on the consent banner. Rejecting optional cookies does not block reading guides or sending an enquiry.

Managing or disabling cookies

Use the Accept or Reject buttons on the banner. You can also clear site data in your browser settings, which removes the stored preference and shows the banner again. Browser controls can block cookies entirely; essential site features such as remembering your choice may then stop working until storage is allowed again.

Third-party cookies

Embedded fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. Font requests may involve standard network logs on Google’s side. Images may be served from Unsplash’s content delivery network. We do not embed advertising networks.

Impact of disabling

Disabling optional analytics cookies has no effect on advice content or the contact form. Blocking all storage may prevent the banner from remembering your choice, so it may reappear.
