Cookies

When you interact with our website, we will automatically collect technical information about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns. Technical information includes internet protocol (IP) address, login data, time zone setting and location, operating system and platform, and other technology on the devices you use to access and use our website.

This technical information data is collected by using cookies and other similar technologies.

A cookie is a small file that can be placed on your computer, mobile, tablet or any other electronic device to store data that can be recalled by a web server in the domain that placed the cookie. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device. PK Law may use cookies in order to make it easier to use the website and to help PK Law to analyse the profile of visitors and users in order to improve usability and features of the website. 

There are three types of cookies you need to be aware of:

a. 'session cookies' which are stored only temporarily during a browsing session in order to allow normal use of the system and are deleted from your device when the browser is closed;

b. 'persistent cookies ' which are read only by the website, saved on your computer for a fixed period and are not deleted when the browser is closed. Such cookies are used where we need to know who you are for repeat visits, for example to allow us to store your preferences for the next sign-in;

c. 'third party cookies' which are set by other online services who run content on the page you are viewing, for example by third party analytics companies who monitor and analyze our web access.

Cookies do not contain any information that personally identifies you, but personal information that we store about you may be linked, by us, to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. You may remove the cookies by following the instructions of your device preferences; however, if you choose to disable cookies, some features of our website may not operate properly and your online experience may be limited.

Google Analytics collects information such as how often users access the website, what pages they visit when they do so, etc. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve our website and services. Google Analytics collects the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit sites, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this website is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.
