Cookie Usage & Data Logic

To maintain the integrity of our trade metrics and provide high-performance analytics, we use localized data storage to optimize your interface and session stability. Last updated: March 17, 2026.

01 Essential System Cookies

These files are necessary for the Singapore Trade Metrics portal to function. They handle secure logins, session management, and server-side traffic distribution. Without these, the analytical depth of the platform would be inaccessible. We do not require consent for these essential technical files as they are fundamental to our service delivery.

Identifier Function Duration
STM_SESSION Maintains user state across dashboard views. Session
STM_SECURE_AUTH Validates encrypted access to trade reports. 30 Days

02 Performance & Analytical Caching

We utilize performance cookies to understand how professionals interact with our market data tools. By analyzing aggregated patterns, we can optimize the speed of data retrieval and the clarity of visual charts. This includes tracking page load times and identifying the most frequently accessed regional trade corridors.

Note on Anonymity:

All performance data is anonymized. We analyze the behavior of the system, not the identity of the individual trader or analyst.

03 Preference Configuration

To tailor the experience to your specific market focus, preference cookies remember your settings. This includes your preferred currency displays (SGD/USD), chart visualization types (Bar/Line/Heatmap), and specific commodity watchlists within the Singaporean trade ecosystem.

User Interface Control

Managing Your Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookie storage through their internal settings. You can delete existing cookies, block specific sites, or disable all local storage. Be aware that disabling cookies may significantly degrade the accuracy and speed of our data rendering tools.
