Cookie Policy

Last updated: March 27, 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how you use the platform.

CaseWrit uses cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) to operate securely and provide a better experience.

Analytics Cookies Optional

CaseWrit does not currently use any third-party analytics cookies. If this changes, we will update this policy and request your consent before enabling analytics tracking.

3. Third-Party Cookies

When you sign in with Google OAuth, Google may set its own cookies to manage the authentication flow. These cookies are governed by Google's privacy policy, not ours.

CaseWrit does not embed third-party advertising, social media, or tracking scripts.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie consent banner that appears on your first visit. You can also:

  • Clear cookies through your browser settings
  • Block cookies entirely (note: this will prevent you from signing in)
  • Delete localStorage data through your browser's developer tools

5. Data Protection

No sensitive case data is ever stored in cookies or localStorage. All case data is stored in our encrypted database and is only accessible through authenticated API requests. Session cookies contain only a signed authentication token — no personal information, case details, or legal data.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. If we introduce new cookie categories that require consent, we will request your permission before enabling them.
