Cookie Policy

Effective date: 2026-05-26

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies, local storage, and tracking technologies FNTN Research Group LLC uses on Ainably.com and related properties, and how you can manage them.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Local storage is a similar browser mechanism used to persist data across sessions. Tracking pixels are small images or scripts that record visits and behaviors.

2. Categories of cookies we use

a. Strictly necessary

Required for the site to function: session, authentication, CSRF protection, load balancing. These cannot be turned off through our preferences.

b. Functional

Remember preferences like UI state, dismissed banners, and consent acknowledgement. Example: the localStorage key gcf_cookie_consent_v1 stores your acknowledgement of this Cookie Policy so the banner does not show on every page.

c. Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We may use first-party or vendor analytics tools. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where applicable.

d. Marketing and lead-gen consent

We use TrustedForm and Jornaya (LeadiD) certificate capture scripts on lead-gen forms to record the timestamp, IP address, user-agent, and consent language presented at the moment of opt-in. We may also use retargeting pixels from advertising platforms to show you relevant ads on other sites.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties whose services we use, for example TrustedForm (ActiveProspect), Jornaya, Stripe (payments), and analytics vendors. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which govern their use of cookies.

4. How to manage and opt out

• Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies. See your browser’s help for details (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge).
• Turn on Global Privacy Control (GPC) in your browser. We honor GPC as a valid opt-out of sale and sharing under California law.
• For advertising opt-outs, visit the Digital Advertising Alliance (optout.aboutads.info) and the Network Advertising Initiative (optout.networkadvertising.org).
• Disabling cookies may affect site functionality, including login and form submission.

5. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The effective date above will reflect the latest version.
