Cookie Policy for tikmbrokerau.com
How this independent editorial review site uses cookies, and the choices you have over them.
What our partner offersThe Obligation We Take On
We take on the obligation to tell you plainly what this site stores in your browser and why. tikmbrokerau.com is an independent editorial resource that reviews the broker Tickmill for readers in Australia. We are not the broker, we are not affiliated with the broker, and we do not provide financial services, accounts, deposits or advice.
That independence shapes this policy. The purpose of our cookies is to make an editorial review site work properly and to understand whether readers find its material useful. Their purpose is not to serve you offers, to profile you for marketing, or to route you toward any product. Nothing on this site is a recommendation to trade, and no cookie here changes that.
When this policy says 'we' or 'this site', it means the people who edit and publish this site. When it says 'you', it means the reader visiting from Australia or elsewhere. We have kept the text in plain English so you can see what is stored before you decide whether to keep it.
When Strictly Necessary Cookies Apply
Strictly necessary cookies are the small records that let the site function at all. They keep the page session consistent while you move between articles, remember choices you have made within the same visit, and support basic security checks that protect the site and its readers from misuse. If you switch them off, the site will not break in some subtle way; it will break plainly. Pages may fail to load reliably, some features may not respond, and protections that keep the site stable can stop working.
Because these cookies are required to deliver the page you asked for, this site treats them as exempt from consent. They carry no advertising purpose and are not used to profile your interests.
They are also short-lived by design. Most expire at the end of your browsing session or within a few hours; those that persist, such as a record of an in-session preference, are kept only as long as needed for that function and no longer than a month. We do not keep strictly necessary cookies longer than their purpose requires.
Cookies Placed by Third Parties
Some cookies are set by parties other than the editors of this site. Two kinds appear here. The first are functional and measurement tools that help us see which reviews are read and whether pages load correctly; they are configured to collect aggregate information rather than to identify you personally. The second may arise from embedded material, such as content hosted elsewhere that appears inside an article; when such material loads, the host of that material may place its own cookies.
We never name our partners in this policy because their names are not what should guide your choice, and we do not invent company details, licence numbers, addresses or contact points to describe anyone. Where a third-party cookie is set, it is the third party, not this site, that decides how long it lives; such cookies commonly expire within a few days to a few months, and those used for session-level functions end when you close the browser.
The site's own measurement cookies, where used, last up to six months so that trends can be compared across a reasonable period. We have no control over the lifespan chosen by any embedded provider, and if that matters to you, the browser controls described below are the reliable way to manage it.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You can control cookies through your browser settings, and those controls apply to every kind of cookie described above. All major browsers let you view stored cookies, delete them individually or all at once, block cookies from particular sites or from all sites, and receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Blocking all cookies will make the strictly necessary ones fail as well, so the site may not work for you. Blocking only third-party cookies is a common middle path, and it leaves the site's own essential functions intact.
Your browser may also offer private or incognito modes that discard cookies when the window closes, and device-level settings may control storage more broadly. If you clear cookies, your choices reset and the site may set necessary cookies again on your next visit.
If you have questions about this policy, use the contact form on this site. A member of the editorial team will respond as promptly as possible.
