How we use cookies
What cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them.
This Cookie Policy explains how Legal Sheets (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on legalsheets.co.uk (the “Site”). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. By continuing to use the Site, and where required by giving your consent through our cookie banner, you agree to the use of cookies as described here.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve their performance, and to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies may be “session” cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
We also use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, that perform comparable functions.
How we use cookies
We use cookies to help the Site function properly, to understand how visitors use it, and — in the future — to support advertising. The cookies we use fall into the categories below.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to operate. They enable core functions such as page navigation, security, and remembering your cookie preferences. The Site cannot function properly without these cookies, and they do not require your consent.
Analytics and performance cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the Site — for example, which pages are most popular and how visitors move through the Site. This helps us improve our content and performance. These cookies collect information in an aggregated form and are used only to analyse and improve the Site.
Advertising cookies
Legal Sheets does not currently display third-party advertising. We intend to use Google AdSense in the future. When advertising is enabled, third-party vendors — including Google — may set cookies to serve and measure ads, and to show ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other websites. These cookies will only be used in line with the consent options presented to you.
Cookies we use
The table below summarises the main types of cookies used on the Site. Specific cookie names and durations set by third parties such as Google may change over time; please refer to those providers’ own policies for current details.
| Type | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Core site functionality, security, and remembering cookie consent choices | Legal Sheets |
| Analytics | Measuring and analysing how visitors use the Site to help us improve it | Google Analytics |
| Advertising (future) | Serving and measuring ads, including personalised ads where consented | Google AdSense / third-party vendors |
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our Site. These include:
- Google Analytics — for website analytics. See how Google uses data.
- Google AdSense and advertising partners (once advertising is enabled) — for serving and measuring ads. You can review and manage ad personalisation at Google Ads Settings.
We do not control the cookies set by these third parties, and their use is governed by their own privacy and cookie policies.
Managing your cookie preferences
You can manage cookies in several ways:
- Our cookie banner — when you first visit the Site, you can accept or manage non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time using the cookie settings option on the Site.
- Your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the Site works.
- Opt-out tools — you can opt out of personalised advertising via Google Ads Settings and www.aboutads.info, and opt out of Google Analytics using the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
Your choice. Non-essential cookies (analytics and, in future, advertising) are only used where permitted by your consent. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time through the cookie settings on the Site.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can usually find cookie controls in the “Settings”, “Preferences”, or “Privacy” section of your browser. The following provide guidance for popular browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari. For more general information about cookies and how to manage them, you can visit aboutcookies.org or the ICO’s guidance on cookies.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for legal or operational reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
