Cookie Policy
How this independent editorial review site uses cookies when you read our IG Markets review from Uganda.

When you open igmabrokerug.com, small text files may be stored on your device by the browser you are using. These files are cookies. They carry short pieces of information, such as your language choice or the fact that you have already closed a notice on the page, so that the site does not have to ask you the same thing again on every visit. A cookie is not a program, it cannot run on your device, and it cannot read other files stored there.
This site is an independent editorial resource. It reviews the broker IG Markets for readers in Uganda. It is not the broker, it is not affiliated with the broker, and it does not offer financial services, open accounts, take deposits or give advice. That matters for this policy because the cookies described here serve the reading experience on this site only. They do not connect you to any trading account, and they are not a step towards one.
Some cookies are set by this site directly. Others are set by services whose pages or tools we embed, and those are covered further down. You can see which cookies your browser currently holds, and delete any of them, through the privacy or security settings of that browser.
What Breaks When Cookies Are Refused
You are free to refuse cookies, and you can block or delete them at any time in your browser. Nothing on this site is hidden behind a cookie wall, and you do not need to accept anything to read the review. Refusing has consequences all the same, and it is fair to set them out plainly rather than let you discover them one by one.
If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site may stop working as intended. A page may fail to remember that you have already dismissed a notice, so it appears again on every visit. Forms, including the contact form on this site, may not submit correctly, because the site cannot confirm that the request came from your own browsing session. Security features that rely on a session cookie may treat your request as unfamiliar and ask you to repeat it.
If you refuse the optional cookies, the review itself remains readable. What changes is convenience: preferences you set are not remembered, and we cannot see, in aggregate and without identifying you, which pages readers find useful. We do not treat a refusal as a problem to be corrected, and we do not ask you again on every page.
How Long Each Kind Lives
Cookies differ in lifespan, and the difference matters when you are deciding what to keep. A session cookie lasts only as long as your browsing session. It is removed when you close the browser, and it is typically used to hold a session together while you move between pages or submit a form.
A persistent cookie stays on your device after the browser is closed, until its set expiry date or until you delete it. On this site, preference cookies that remember choices such as a dismissed notice are kept short, measured in weeks rather than months. Aggregate measurement cookies, where they are used, are set to expire within a comparable period so that old data does not accumulate beyond its usefulness. We do not set cookies intended to last for years.
Strictly necessary cookies are usually session cookies and expire when you close the browser, though a few may persist briefly to complete a task you started, such as a form submission. Where a third-party service sets a cookie through this site, its lifespan is controlled by that service and not by us, which is why the next section separates the two.
Cookies Set by Third Parties
Some cookies on this site are set by parties other than us. This happens when a page includes a tool or resource hosted elsewhere, for example a font, a script that helps the site display correctly, or a measurement service that counts visits without identifying individual readers. Your browser contacts that party directly, and that party may set its own cookie.
We do not control those cookies and cannot read them. Their lifespan, their purpose and the choices available to you are governed by the privacy terms of the party that sets them. What we can do is keep the number of such services small and avoid embedding anything that is not needed for the review to be read. We do not use third-party cookies to build profiles of readers across other websites.
Strictly necessary cookies are the ones the site cannot function without. They keep a session valid, let a form submission reach us, and support basic security. They are not used to track you around the web, and they are not shared for advertising. If you have questions about cookies on this site, or want to know which ones a particular page sets, use the contact form on this site and we will answer as plainly as we can.
