Cookies | INSG1

What we currently use

INSG1 uses essential browser storage to remember your cookie preference and support features you deliberately request. The Google tag loads in restricted consent mode so that it can respect your choice, but Google Analytics cookies and identifiable measurement remain off unless you choose “Allow optional”. Metricool analytics on the homepage also remains completely unloaded until you allow optional services.

Optional services

Google Analytics is provided by Google. Before consent, the tag operates with analytics and advertising storage denied and may send limited cookieless consent-status signals. When enabled, it records information such as pages visited, approximate location, device and browser details, referral source and interaction timings. Metricool provides additional aggregate homepage analytics and is loaded only after optional consent. We use this information to understand and improve INSG1; it is not used to provide advertising on this site. Rejecting optional storage will not stop you using the directory.

Changing your choice

Use “Review settings” above or the Cookie settings link in the footer. Newsletter frequency and unsubscribe choices are managed through the private link in a newsletter email. You can also clear site data through your browser. Blocking essential browser storage may mean we ask for your preference again.
