This policy explains how VSQ Legal uses cookies and similar technologies (such as browser local storage) on this website, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our privacy notice.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as local storage, store small amounts of data in your browser. They can be strictly necessary for a site to work, or optional (for example, to measure how a site is used).
Cookies we use
We keep this to a minimum. Strictly necessary storage is always set. Analytics cookies are set only if you choose to accept them (see below); if you do not, they are never placed.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| vsq_cookie_consent | Strictly necessary (first-party cookie) | Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask again on every visit. | 180 days |
| Functional local storage | Strictly necessary (browser storage) | Used only within restricted administrative areas of the site to keep an authorised user signed in. It is not set for ordinary visitors. | Until cleared |
| _ga, _ga_<id> | Analytics (Google Analytics) - set only with your consent | Set by Google Analytics to measure how visitors use the site (for example, pages viewed and returning visits) so we can improve it. Only placed after you accept analytics cookies. | Up to 2 years |
Analytics and marketing
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. These cookies are switched off by default and are set only after you accept analytics cookies. Analytics data is processed by Google LLC on our behalf. If you decline, or later withdraw consent, these cookies are not set (and any that exist are cleared). You can change your choice at any time. We do not use advertising or social-media cookies.
Third parties
Our fonts are served from our own servers rather than loaded from a third party, so viewing the site does not share your data with a font provider. Our contact, booking and newsletter forms are processed on our servers and do not set cookies on your device. The newsletter mailing list is handled by our email provider once you choose to subscribe.
Managing your choices
You can review or change your cookie choices at any time using , or the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings, though strictly necessary cookies are needed for the site to work properly.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes to the site or to the law. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date.
