Cookie Policy
Last updated July 2026
This policy explains how The Aperture Method™ uses cookies and similar technologies. We keep them to a minimum, ask for your consent before setting anything non-essential, and never use them to sell your information.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Similar technologies — like local storage and tracking pixels — do comparable things. Together they let a site remember your actions and preferences, and help its owner understand how it's used.
The categories we use
We group cookies into four categories. Only strictly necessary cookies are set automatically; everything else waits for your consent.
| Category | Consent | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | No consent needed | Make the site work — security, load balancing, and remembering your cookie choices. |
| Functional | Consent required | Remember preferences so the site behaves the way you expect. |
| Analytics | Consent required | Help us understand, in aggregate, how the site is used so we can improve it. |
| Targeting / advertising | Consent required | We do not currently use these. If that ever changes, we'll update this policy first. |
Third parties that may set cookies
As the site grows we may rely on trusted providers that set their own cookies when their features are enabled and you've consented:
- Analytics — to measure site usage in aggregate (for example, Google Analytics).
- Customer and marketing tools — to manage enquiries and, if you opt in, our Insights emails (for example, HubSpot).
- Scheduling — if you book a call through an embedded scheduler (for example, Calendly).
Each provider handles data under its own privacy and cookie terms. We enable these only where they earn their place, and analytics and marketing cookies stay off until you allow them.
How to control cookies
- Use our consent banner to accept or decline non-essential cookies, and change your mind at any time.
- Adjust or delete cookies through your browser settings — most browsers let you block or clear them.
- We honor recognized browser signals such as Global Privacy Control where required.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working. Blocking the other categories won't break the site — you'll just see less-tailored functionality.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy as our use of cookies evolves; the “last updated” date above will reflect any change. Questions? Email hello@aperturemethod.com. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle personal information more broadly.
