Cookie Policy

The Cookies we use on www.fortresssolicitors.com do not contain any information that personally identifies you and we do not manually or programmatically link cookie identifiers with the personal information stored in our system. The cookies we set are used to track if a user is logged in or not and for anonymous web traffic analysis.

What are Cookies? 

A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. It is a small amount of data that often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer, tablet, or mobile phone (referred to in this Cookie Policy as a ‘device’) from this Site and is stored on your device’s hard drive. 

The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies can be used by web servers to identify and track users as they navigate different pages on a website and identify users returning to a website. In order to improve this Site, we may use small files commonly known as “cookies”. 

Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. A cookie records on your device information relating to your internet activity (such as whether you have visited this Site before).

The cookies we use on this Site will not collect personally identifiable information about you and we will not disclose information stored in cookies that we place on your device to third parties.
