Cookie preferences
Cookies are small files stored on your device that help a website work and help its owner understand how it is used. This page explains the cookies The Strategist’s Brief uses and how you can control them.
What cookies we use
We keep cookie use to the minimum needed to run a reliable subscription publication. We group them into three categories.
Strictly necessary
These are required for the site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They keep you signed in, remember your subscription status, and secure your session. Because they are essential, they do not require consent.
Analytics
These help us understand which briefs are read and how readers move through the site, so we can improve the publication. They are only set with your consent and are aggregated wherever possible.
Functional
These remember choices you make, such as a preference set during a session, to give you a smoother experience. They are also set only with your consent.
Managing your preferences
When you first visit, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies through our consent banner. You can change your choice at any time by clearing the consent stored in your browser and reloading the site, or by adjusting your browser settings.
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings menu. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site, including sign-in, may not work.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by the providers that help us operate, such as our publishing platform and our payment processor during checkout. These are governed by the providers’ own policies, and we work only with providers whose practices are consistent with this policy.
Changes
We will update this page if our use of cookies changes. The effective date above will always reflect the current version.
