Mechanism & Disclosure.
This document outlines how Sigma Orient Data utilizes HTTP cookies and local storage technologies to maintain the integrity of our quantitative systems and optimize the user experience on our digital platform.
Technical Foundation
Cookies are small text strings stored within your browser environment that allow Sigma Orient Data to recognize your session and maintain state across different pages. In the context of high-precision data analytics, these files act as temporary markers that facilitate secure login, session continuity, and preference persistence.
Our use of these technologies is strictly bound to operational efficiency. We do not use cookies to profile individual behavior for external sale; our focus remains on the quantitative performance of the interface and the delivery of requested data models.
System Rationale
Integrity & Security
We deploy essential cookies to verify user identity and prevent fraudulent access to protected analytics dashboards. These are mandatory for the secure operation of our quantitative systems.
Performance Tuning
Analytical cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our content. This data is aggregated and anonymized to improve load times and resource allocation on our server nodes.
Classification of Storage
System Vital
Required for basic site navigation, secure areas, and load balancing. These cannot be disabled through the interface as the site will cease to function correctly.
- session_id
- xsrf_token
- lb_affinity
- auth_ticket
Telemetry
Used to collect quantitative information regarding page views, bounce rates, and traffic sources. This assists our lab team in optimizing site architecture and content hierarchy.

- _gid
- _gat_gtag
User Governance
You have the right to govern how cookies are processed on your hardware. While the majority of browser environments accept cookies by default, you can modify your settings to block or delete them. Note that rejecting essential cookies may render large portions of our analytics platform inaccessible.
Browser Controls
For detailed instructions on managing storage, refer to your specific browser manufacturer:
Sigma Orient Data honors "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals where explicitly configured by the user. If you have DNT enabled, we will automatically disable non-essential telemetry tracking for your session.
