Cookie Policy — Mettatham Family Legal Services

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They help the website remember things about your visit — such as whether you have accepted cookie preferences — so you do not need to re-enter them each time.

Cookies do not give us access to your device and we cannot see any other information stored on it. They are simply a way for websites to work more consistently and to understand how visitors interact with the content.

Third-party services operate under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies if you have questions about their data practices.
