Cookie Policy

Cookies are small data files — typically consisting of letters and numbers — that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit. They are widely used across the internet to make websites function properly, work more efficiently, and provide reporting information to website owners.

Cookies allow a website to recognize your device on return visits, remember your preferences such as language settings, and gather analytical data about how you interact with the site. They do not typically contain personal information that directly identifies you, such as your name or email address, though they can be linked to such information if you provide it to us through a contact form or consultation request.

There are two broad categories of cookies based on how long they persist:

• Session cookies are temporary and are automatically deleted from your device when you close your web browser. They exist only for the duration of your browsing session and are commonly used to keep you logged in or to maintain your selections as you navigate between pages.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They help websites remember your preferences and settings across multiple visits, and they are used by analytics services to distinguish between new and returning visitors over time.

Cookies can also be categorized by who sets them. First-party cookies are set directly by jtnylaw.com, while third-party cookies are set by external services (such as Google Analytics) that we use to improve our website's performance and content.

Essential cookies are required for the basic operation of our website. Without them, core features such as page navigation, secure form submissions, and session management would not function. These cookies do not collect personal information for marketing or advertising purposes, and they cannot be disabled without breaking the website's functionality.

Examples of what essential cookies do on our site:

• Maintain your browsing session as you move between pages so you don't have to re-enter information
• Enable secure connections (HTTPS) between your browser and our servers
• Support the proper functioning of our contact form, free consultation request form, and intake tools
• Detect and prevent malicious or unauthorized activity such as bot traffic
• Load-balance traffic to ensure the website remains responsive during high-traffic periods

Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are set automatically and do not require your consent under most privacy frameworks, including the GDPR and CCPA.

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. This data helps us improve site performance, identify which legal resources are most useful, optimize page load times, and ensure our content remains relevant and accessible to people seeking legal help on Long Island and throughout New York.

The primary analytics service we use is Google Analytics 4 (GA4), provided by Google LLC. GA4 collects data in aggregate — meaning it reports on patterns and trends rather than identifying individual visitors. Information collected by GA4 includes:

• Pages visited, time spent on each page, and the order in which pages are viewed
• How you arrived at our site (e.g., from a search engine, a referral link, or by typing the URL directly)
• General geographic region (city/state level, not street address)
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet), screen resolution, operating system, and browser
• Scroll depth and engagement metrics such as clicks on navigation links and outbound links
• Whether you are a new or returning visitor

GA4 does not collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, or phone number through cookies. IP addresses are anonymized before storage. We do not use GA4 data for advertising, remarketing, or any purpose beyond improving the quality and usefulness of our website.

Functionality cookies allow our website to remember choices you have made in order to provide a more personalized experience. These cookies are not used for tracking or advertising, but they do enhance your browsing experience by retaining your preferences across visits. Examples include:

• Remembering whether you have previously dismissed a notification banner or cookie consent prompt
• Storing your preferred language if our site offers multilingual content
• Retaining partially completed form data so you can return to a consultation request without starting over

If you disable functionality cookies, some features of our website may not work as intended, but core content will remain accessible.

The following table provides details about the specific cookies set when you visit jtnylaw.com. Cookie names, durations, and purposes may change as we update our technology; we will revise this table when material changes occur.

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services rather than directly by jtnylaw.com. We use these services to improve website performance, security, and the quality of information we provide. We do not control the cookies set by third parties, and each third-party provider has its own privacy and cookie policies.

The third-party services currently active on our website include:

We do not use any advertising, remarketing, or social media tracking cookies. Our website does not serve targeted advertisements, and we do not share cookie data with advertisers.

You have several options for managing which cookies are set on your device. Most web browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through their settings. Please note that blocking certain cookies — particularly essential cookies — may impair website functionality, preventing features like our contact form or consultation request tool from working properly.

Browser-Level Cookie Controls

Each browser handles cookie settings differently. Below are links to cookie management instructions for the most common browsers:

• Google Chrome — Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox — Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari (macOS) — Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge — Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies

Opting Out of Google Analytics

If you would like to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits to our site specifically, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. This free tool is available for all major browsers and works by instructing the Google Analytics JavaScript not to send visit information to Google Analytics.

Do Not Track (DNT) Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Our website does not currently alter its behavior in response to DNT signals, but we encourage you to use the cookie management options described above to control your preferences.

Depending on where you live, you may have specific legal rights regarding the data collected through cookies. While our firm is based in New York and primarily serves clients in Nassau County, Suffolk County, and the greater New York metropolitan area, we respect the privacy rights of all visitors.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

California residents have the right to know what personal information is being collected, to request deletion of personal information, and to opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information, including data collected through cookies.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have the right to access the data collected about you, request its correction or deletion, restrict processing, and object to processing. For non-essential cookies, we rely on your consent as the legal basis for processing.

New York Privacy Considerations

While New York does not currently have a comprehensive state-level consumer privacy law comparable to the CCPA, we voluntarily extend transparency and control measures to all visitors. Our approach to cookie usage is designed to meet or exceed the standards set by leading privacy frameworks.

To exercise any of these rights or to request more information about the data we collect, please contact our office using the information provided at the end of this policy.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, updates to our technology, or changes in applicable laws and regulations. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.

If a change to this policy materially affects how we use non-essential cookies, we will take reasonable steps to notify visitors — for example, by displaying a notice on our website or updating our cookie consent mechanism. Your continued use of jtnylaw.com after any changes to this Cookie Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

By continuing to browse and use jtnylaw.com, you acknowledge that you have read this Cookie Policy and consent to the use of cookies as described herein. You may withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings to refuse or delete cookies, or by using the opt-out tools described above. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

For essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the website, consent is not required, and these cookies will continue to function regardless of your preferences for non-essential cookies.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests related to this Cookie Policy or our use of cookies and tracking technologies, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our team is happy to provide additional information or assist you with exercising your privacy rights.
