This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies India Law Advocates ("we", "us", "our") places on your device when you visit www.indialawadvocates.com, the purpose of each cookie, how long it lasts, and how you can manage or remove cookies at any time.
This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we collect and handle your personal data.
1 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide information to the website owner about how the site is being used.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or malware. They cannot access other files on your device. Each cookie can only be read by the website that created it.
We also use similar technologies — specifically pixels (tiny invisible images embedded in a page that fire a network request when loaded) — which function similarly to cookies for tracking and analytics purposes. This Policy covers both.
2 Categories of Cookies We Use
We use three categories of cookies on this Platform.
Category 1 — Essential Cookies (Always Active). These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. Without them, services you have asked for — such as initiating a payment or loading the booking form — cannot be provided. They do not track you across other websites and do not require your consent under applicable law.
Category 2 — Analytics Cookies (Consent Required). These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how they move through the site. All data is aggregated and anonymised; no individual is identified. We use this to improve the Platform. These cookies are only placed with your consent.
Category 3 — Advertising / Marketing Cookies (Consent Required). These cookies are set by our advertising partners (Meta/Facebook) to measure the effectiveness of our advertisements. They track whether you visited our website after seeing or clicking one of our ads, so we can understand which ads are working. These cookies are only placed with your consent, and you can opt out at any time via your ad platform settings.

The following cookies and similar technologies are currently in use on this Platform. This list is accurate as of the last updated date above and will be updated whenever we add or remove cookies.

_fbc — set by Meta Platforms, Inc. via Meta Pixel, advertising. Set when you arrive at our site via a Facebook or Instagram ad click; stores the click identifier to attribute conversions to specific ads. Only set if you clicked a Meta ad before visiting our site. Duration: 3 months.
4 Cookies We Do Not Use
We do not use cookies that track your browsing history across unrelated websites for behavioural advertising profiling, cookies that store sensitive personal data such as your case description or financial credentials, Flash cookies, browser fingerprinting techniques, or third-party social media embeds beyond the Meta Pixel described above.
5 Your Consent
When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie notice. Essential cookies are placed immediately as they are required for the site to function. Analytics and advertising cookies are placed only after you have given your consent.
You may withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time by using your browser settings to delete existing cookies and block future ones, by opting out of Google Analytics using Google's opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, by opting out of Meta ad targeting via your Facebook ad preferences at facebook.com/adpreferences, or by contacting us at indialawadvocates@gmail.com.
Withdrawing consent to non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using any part of our Platform or from booking a consultation.
6 How to Manage Cookies in Your Browser
Every major browser lets you view, block, and delete cookies. In Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data (Chrome Cookie Guide). In Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data (Firefox Cookie Guide). In Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data (Safari Cookie Guide). In Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data (Edge Cookie Guide).
On mobile devices: on an iPhone or iPad, go to Settings → Safari → Block All Cookies. On Android, open Chrome → Settings → Site settings → Cookies.
Blocking all cookies — including essential ones — may prevent some parts of this website from working correctly. The booking form and payment process require session cookies to function. We recommend blocking only non-essential cookies rather than all cookies.
