Cookie Policy

Last updated: 16 October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Niche Advisory (“we”, “us” or “our”) may use cookies and similar technologies when you visit nicheadvisory.co.za/wp/ (the “website”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files that a website may store on your browser or device. Similar technologies, such as pixels, local storage and scripts, may also help a website remember preferences, understand how it is used or protect it against misuse. The cookies actually present on the website depend on the features and third-party services enabled at the time of your visit.

2. Types of cookies

Depending on the website configuration, cookies and similar technologies may fall into the following categories:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: These support core functions such as security, page navigation, session handling or remembering a privacy choice. The website may not function properly without some of them. Where permitted by law, these may be used without consent.
  • Functional or preference cookies: These remember choices, settings or information you enter, helping provide a more consistent experience.
  • Analytics or performance cookies: If analytics tools are enabled, these may help us understand which pages are visited, how visitors navigate the website and whether errors occur. Information may be aggregated or used to improve website performance.
  • Marketing or third-party cookies: If advertising, embedded content, social media features or other third-party services are enabled, those services may use technologies to measure interactions or personalize content according to their own policies.

This list describes possible categories, not a claim that every category is currently active. We should verify the live website and its plugins, scripts and embedded content to identify the exact cookies in use.

3. Why cookies may be used

Cookies and similar technologies may be used to keep the website secure and operational, remember settings, maintain a session, understand website traffic, diagnose technical problems, improve content and, where applicable, support embedded third-party features or marketing. We aim to use information collected through these technologies only for appropriate and lawful purposes.

4. First-party and third-party cookies

First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies may be set by another service whose functionality appears on or is used by the website, such as an analytics, video, map, social media or security provider. Third parties may collect information under their own privacy notices, and their practices may change. Where applicable law requires consent for non-essential cookies or similar technologies, those technologies should not be activated before the required consent is obtained.

5. Your choices and how to manage cookies

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your browser, you may be able to view stored cookies, delete existing cookies, block all cookies or block cookies from selected websites. Browser controls differ, so consult your browser’s help pages for instructions.

Please note that blocking or deleting strictly necessary cookies may affect website functionality, and some preferences may not be remembered. If a cookie-consent banner or settings tool is available on the website, you can use it to manage the choices it offers. You can revisit or change your choices where that tool supports it.

Where required by applicable law, we will seek consent before using non-essential cookies and similar technologies. You may withdraw consent at any time using the available controls; withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.

6. Personal information and cookies

Some cookie identifiers and technical data may qualify as personal information under South African law, particularly when they can be linked to an identifiable person or combined with other information. Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy. We take reasonable steps to ensure that any information collected through cookies is handled lawfully and with appropriate safeguards.

7. Retention

Cookies may be session-based, meaning they expire when you close your browser, or persistent, meaning they remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. The duration depends on the specific cookie and the provider that sets it. Exact cookie names and expiry periods should be confirmed by inspecting the live website and any enabled third-party services.

8. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this policy when our website, technologies or legal obligations change. The latest version will appear on this page with the updated date. Please check this page periodically for changes.

This policy is a general template. Before treating it as final, Niche Advisory should check the live website for actual cookies, analytics, embedded services, consent tools and their retention periods, then update this page to match the website’s real configuration.
