Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data that a site asks your browser to keep and that the browser sends back to it on each visit. Legtc uses very few, and only one is its own.
Your decision
Pages with a question do not show the cookie note. You can open this page from their bottom links to decide or to change your answer. On the other pages, the note appears while no choice has been saved.
To measure and improve the ads it uses to make itself known, Legtc needs your permission before using cookies and similar technologies in your browser. You can change your answer whenever you like.
Cookies and storage in use
| Name | Who uses it | What for | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
legtc_cota (cookie and local storage copy) |
Legtc | Remembering whether you accepted or rejected measurement cookies | Cookie: one year. Local copy: until you change your answer or it is deleted |
| Google advertising cookies | Google, if the site has its tag configured and you accept | Measuring the results of the ads that make the site known | Those set by Google |
| Advertising service technologies | The advertising service the site uses, inside the ad frames | Showing the ads and checking that visits come from people | Those set by that service |
The copy in local storage has no expiry date set by Legtc. The site reads that copy first; if it does not hold a valid choice, it checks the cookie.
How measurement works
Google’s advertising tag is only loaded if it is configured on the site. It starts with consent denied and retrieves your saved choice, if there is one. Until you have accepted, it does not use advertising or analytics cookies. If you accept, Google can use them to measure the ads that make the site known. You can change your decision in the box above at any time; it applies as soon as you change it.
The ad frames and the check that visits come from people work the same way whatever your decision. What data they receive is set out on the privacy page.
Deleting cookies
You can also delete cookies from your browser settings. For the note to appear again on the pages that show it, you must delete both the legtc_cota cookie and its copy in Legtc’s local storage. Deleting only the cookie keeps the answer in the local copy.
