Tag Management

Within our website, we have employed the use of a tag management system (TMS), which allows us to update measurement codes and related code fragments (collectively known as ‘Tags’) quickly and efficiently. This is a service provided by Google and manages things such as Google Analytics.

User behaviour tracking is implemented as part of this and is used for marketing and analytical purposes. Please be aware that as part of this service, Google transfers this data to further 3rd parties.

Furthermore, our wealth managers have third tag managers deployed on this site and will therefore also act as controller in respect to your data.

By confirming your consent to cookie collection, you are also confirming consent to the use of your data within the TMS.
