What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies can do many things, such as remembering your preferences, letting you navigate between pages efficiently, and generally improving your experience.
Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you close your browser and are used to remember your settings for future visits. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted once you close your browser.
How Justice & Compassion Law Firm Uses Cookies
At Justice & Compassion Law Firm, we use cookies to improve your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, personalize content, and serve targeted advertisements (where applicable). We are committed to being transparent about our cookie usage and providing you with the control to manage your preferences.
We use the following types of cookies:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the operation of our website. They enable you to navigate the site and use its features, such as accessing secure areas. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like shopping baskets or e-billing, cannot be provided.
- Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often and if they receive error messages from web pages. These cookies don't collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how our website works.
- Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you with local weather reports or traffic news by storing in a cookie the region in which you are currently located. Functionality cookies can also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
- Targeting or Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization. However, we currently do not use third-party advertising cookies on our site. If we implement them in the future, we will update this policy.
