What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that a browser may store on a user’s device when visiting a website.

Websites use these files for various purposes, such as running core functions, remembering certain preferences, maintaining security, or measuring website performance if measurement tools are enabled.

Not all cookies necessarily mean advertising tracking.

Types of Cookies

1. Strictly necessary cookies

The website may need certain necessary files to run its core functions, maintain its security or carry out options requested by the user.

Examples, depending on the website system used, include:

• Maintaining the browsing session.
• Remembering necessary technical settings.
• Protecting forms from misuse.
• Managing cookie consent.
• Supporting core security functions.

This category is not usually used for advertising purposes.

2. Functionality and preference cookies

Some files may allow the website to remember certain user choices, such as language or certain display settings, if these functions actually exist.

The purpose of these files is to make the website easier to use, not to build a marketing profile of the visitor.

3. Measurement and analytics cookies

Some websites may use tools to measure visits and understand how pages are used, such as the number of visits, the most-used pages and technical performance indicators.

However, we will not attribute this function to lawfirmoman.com before verifying that an actual analytics tool exists.

4. Third-party service cookies

Embedding an external service in a page may result in the use of cookies or technical storage specific to that service.

Depending on what actually exists on the website, this may apply to items such as:

• Maps.
• Embedded video.
• Security tools.
• External forms.
• Chat tools.
• Measurement services.
• Embedded content services.

This list should not be taken as confirmation that any of these services is used on lawfirmoman.com.

5. Advertising or marketing cookies

Session and Persistent Cookies

Cookies can be:

• Session cookies: usually expire when the browser is closed.
• Persistent cookies: remain for a set period or until the user deletes them.

How long each file remains depends on its purpose and the configuration of the service that created it.

We will not set default durations before knowing which files actually exist.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are usually created by the domain the user visits directly.

Third-party cookies may be created by an external service embedded in the website.

The presence of an external service does not necessarily mean the firm controls all the data processed by that service, so its settings and policies should be reviewed when it is used.

How Can Users Manage Cookies?

Users can control cookies in several ways depending on the website and browser settings.

These options may include:

• Accepting or rejecting non-essential categories if the website uses a consent management tool.
• Changing browser settings.
• Deleting previously stored files.
• Preventing certain websites from storing new files.

Disabling some necessary files may cause part of the website not to work as expected.

Browser Settings

Most browsers allow users to view, delete or block cookies.

Management steps vary by browser and device, so it is best to refer to the privacy settings within the browser itself for instructions suited to the version used.

Cookie Consent

If the website uses non-essential files that require the user’s choice, a clear mechanism should be provided for managing preferences before or during their use, according to the website’s approved legal and technical setup.

How Do You Change Your Preferences?

If a cookie consent management tool is installed, users should be able to reopen their settings and change their choices.

What Data Can Be Associated with Cookies?

Depending on the type of file and the service used, some cookies may be associated with technical information such as:

• Browser or device type.
• The browsing session.
• The pages requested.
• The timing of certain interactions.
• User settings or preferences.
• Technical data related to security or operation.

This does not mean all of this data is currently collected on lawfirmoman.com.

Do Cookies Contain the Documents You Send to the Firm?

Cookies should not be confused with information users send themselves through a form, email or any contact channel.

Information users send directly is handled under the privacy policy and according to the contact channel used.

Cookies, on the other hand, are part of the website’s technical operation and may work differently.

External Services

If an analytics tool, maps, video, security or other technical service that stores cookies is added to the website in future, this policy may be updated to explain that service’s role.

No provider will be named in this section merely because it is commonly used; the criterion is what actually exists on the website.

Updates to This Policy

The cookie policy may be updated when the tools or services used on the website change, the consent management method changes, or the information in it needs amending.
