Cookie Policy
This page explains how NorthGrid Labs Inc. uses cookies and similar technologies, how you can manage your preferences, and how these choices apply in Canada.
Overview
Cookies are small text files placed on your device to support core site features, remember preferences, measure usage, and, where permitted, deliver relevant information about our services. On this website, cookies are organized into clear categories with simple controls. You can update your choices at any time using the “Manage cookie preferences” link in the footer.
Our approach aligns with Canadian privacy expectations and international standards. Non-essential cookies (analytics and marketing) are activated only after you provide consent. Essential cookies operate automatically to keep the site secure and functional.
Cookie Categories
Essential Cookies
Required for security, load balancing, and session management. These enable core features like navigation, form protection, and consent storage. Because they are necessary, they do not require consent.
Analytics Cookies
Help us understand which pages are visited, how long they are viewed, and how features perform. These cookies are optional and load only after you accept analytics in the consent panel.
Marketing Cookies
Used to support remarketing and measurement across services provided by partners such as Google and Meta. These are optional and load only with your explicit consent.
Retention
Essential preferences may persist up to 12 months. Analytics data retention is typically up to 14 months. Marketing cookies used for advertising may persist up to 540 days. You can clear cookies anytime in your browser.
Your Choices
You have three simple options on first visit and anytime afterward:
- Accept All: activates analytics and marketing cookies in addition to essential cookies.
- Reject Non-Essential: keeps only essential cookies active.
- Manage Preferences: choose analytics and marketing independently.
Technologies We Use
We may use Google Analytics 4 to understand site performance and engagement. For advertising and measurement, we may use Google Ads technologies and the Meta Pixel to help us understand how users interact with our pages after seeing our informational content. No analytics or marketing technologies are activated until you opt in via the consent panel.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. Steps differ by browser and device. If you block all cookies, some site functions may not work correctly. You can also withdraw consent at any time by reopening the cookie preferences panel using the link in the footer.
