In short

Legal Staff uses no advertising or analytics cookies. We use only the browser storage needed to sign you in and run the app. A few third-party services (Google sign-in, Google Fonts, Razorpay checkout and our host, Vercel) receive technical data when they load.

Cookies and browser storage

Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. “Local storage” is a similar place in your browser where a site can keep data. Legal Staff mostly uses local storage, which stays on your device and is not sent with every web request.

How to clear or block storage

  • Sign out in the app to end your session.
  • Clear site data: in Chrome or Edge, open the padlock or site-info icon in the address bar, then “Site settings” or “Cookies and site data” and clear data for this site. In Safari, go to Settings › Safari › Advanced › Website Data. In Firefox, open the padlock icon and choose “Clear cookies and site data”.
  • Private browsing removes stored data when you close the window.

Because this storage is strictly necessary, blocking it will sign you out and may stop the app from working. Clearing it on a device with no server connection also deletes practice data kept only on that device, so export first.

If this changes

If we ever add analytics or any non-essential cookies, we will ask for your consent first and update this page. For how we handle personal data generally, see our Privacy Policy; for requests, use our Data rights page.
