This policy explains what cookies are, which ones jcclegal.co.uk uses and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember your choices and tell us how the site is used. Some are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies); others stay until they expire or you delete them (persistent cookies).

2. How we use cookies

We use two types of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies keep the website working and secure, and remember your cookie choices. They do not need your consent.
  • Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We only set these if you agree to them in our cookie banner.

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies to show you adverts.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site working. Guidance for common browsers:

To opt out of Google Analytics on every website, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
