Striver’s full cookies policy is being finalised with our legal team. In the meantime, the site uses a small number of essential cookies to keep it running and remember your preferences between visits. We also carry advertising, which sets cookies once you allow it through the consent prompt.
When you allow measurement through the consent prompt, we load Vercel’s privacy-friendly page analytics and Google Analytics 4 so we can understand which stories are being read. Decline and neither script loads at all. If you have not answered the prompt yet, nothing loads either: we treat no answer as a no. You can change your mind at any time through the prompt, and your choice is stored in this browser only.
We use SmartFrame to display licensed images across the site. SmartFrame is a registered vendor under the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF v2.3). When you allow measurement through the consent prompt, the SmartFrame embed may set device identifiers used for viewing analytics (sf-insights.io) and for the adverts SmartFrame serves on its images (sf-ads.io). Decline, or leave the prompt unanswered, and the embed loads in a restricted mode that does not set those identifiers. You can see SmartFrame’s declared purposes, legal bases, and data partners in their privacy policy.
Striver carries advertising sold through Google Ad Manager. Our advertising partners are listed in our ads.txt file. The consent prompt on this site is certified under the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework, and it is where you choose which partners and purposes you allow. No advertising cookie is set before you answer it, and you can reopen it at any time to change your answer.
You can control cookies from your browser’s settings at any time. For any question about what Striver sets and why, email Eleanor@joinstriver.com.
The full policy will be published here when it is ready.
