This Cookie Policy explains how AGTC Advisory Services uses cookies and similar technologies across its website, account, learning, self-assessment, checkout, payment, analytics, and other digital-product experiences. Cookies are small text files stored on a device; related technologies can include scripts, pixels, local or session storage, server logs, and similar technical identifiers.
AGTC currently uses essential technologies to support core site, login, account, consent, and payment functions, and statistics technologies to understand website usage. The current cookie inventory, including names, purposes, and durations, is generated from AGTC's active consent-management configuration below.
Cookies are small text files that may be stored on a device when a user visits a website. Similar technologies may include pixels, scripts, local storage, session storage, server logs, and other technical identifiers. These technologies can help a website remember preferences, maintain sessions, protect accounts and payments, understand site usage, and improve the visitor experience.
Some cookies are set directly by AGTC or WordPress. Others are set or used by service providers that support payment processing, analytics, session measurement, security, or related website functions. The live inventory below identifies the services currently documented in AGTC's consent-management configuration.
| Category | Purpose | Current examples |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Enable basic functions and are necessary for the proper operation, security, login, consent, account, and payment experience. | WPConsent preferences, WordPress login/session cookies, and Stripe payment and fraud-prevention technologies. |
| Statistics | Help AGTC understand how visitors use the website and how pages, content, and digital-product journeys perform. | Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity, subject to the visitor's consent choice. |
| Marketing | Would support advertising, remarketing, or similar marketing uses if AGTC enables such services in the future. | No active Marketing service is currently documented in AGTC's consent-management inventory. |
AGTC uses WPConsent to store a visitor's cookie-consent preferences and WordPress cookies to support login and authenticated-session functionality. These technologies are treated as Essential because the consent system, account security, and login experience depend on them.
Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies to process payments, support checkout, and help prevent and detect fraud. AGTC treats the documented Stripe cookies as Essential because they support payment and security functions.
AGTC uses Google Analytics 4 to measure website usage, traffic sources, page and content engagement, and related interaction patterns. Google Analytics is treated as a Statistics service and responds to the visitor's consent choice.
AGTC uses Microsoft Clarity to understand interaction patterns such as page engagement, navigation, and session behavior. Clarity is treated as a Statistics service. AGTC has configured Clarity to operate without its normal analytics cookies until the visitor grants the relevant consent.
AGTC does not currently have any service classified as a Marketing cookie in its consent-management configuration. If AGTC later introduces advertising, remarketing, or similar technologies, this policy and the consent controls will be updated accordingly.
Website hosting, caching, security, and delivery systems may process technical information needed to operate and protect the site even when that information is not represented as a browser cookie in the inventory below. Those activities are addressed more broadly in AGTC's Privacy Policy and related terms.
AGTC provides a consent banner and a persistent cookie-preferences control. Essential technologies remain available because they support core site, consent, login, account, security, and payment functions. Statistics technologies can be accepted or rejected through the consent interface, and visitors can later reopen the preferences control to change that choice.
Most browsers also allow users to block, delete, or manage cookies. Browser controls vary by provider and device. Blocking or deleting Essential cookies may affect consent preferences, login sessions, account access, Course access, assessment functionality, checkout, payment, or other website and digital-product features.
The inventory below is generated dynamically from WPConsent. It may list known cookies associated with a configured service even when a particular cookie is not created during every visit or under every consent state.
