Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 18 April 2025 · Effective: 18 April 2025
1. What This Policy Covers
This Cookie Policy explains how Lotus Legal ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at lotusleg. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices available to you.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out the broader framework for how we handle personal data.
2. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device — your computer, tablet, or phone — when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function, or to make them function more reliably, as well as to provide information to the website's owners.
Some cookies are placed by the website you are visiting directly; others are placed by third parties whose services appear on that page. Cookies may be "session cookies" (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device until they expire or are deleted).
Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, work in comparable ways. This policy covers all such technologies used on our website.
3. How We Use Cookies
We use a small number of cookies for specific, considered purposes. We do not use cookies for advertising or to track your activity across other websites.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be switched off in our systems as they are set in response to actions you take, such as recording your cookie preferences. They do not collect information that could be used to identify you for marketing purposes.
Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often or whether visitors encounter error messages. This information is collected in aggregate and helps us improve the site. Analytics cookies are not placed unless you have consented through the cookie preference tool on our website.
Functional Cookies
These cookies may be used to remember choices you make (such as your cookie consent preference) so that the website behaves as you would expect on return visits. They are set only where needed for a smoother experience.

This table reflects the cookies in use at the time of this policy's last update. Where we introduce new cookies, we will update this policy accordingly.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Where analytics cookies are enabled, data is processed by Google LLC under the Google Analytics service. Google may transfer and process this data in countries outside Singapore. Where this occurs, appropriate safeguards are in place under Google's standard contractual arrangements. You may review Google's own privacy terms at policies.google.com/privacy.
Our website also embeds a Google Maps iframe on the contact section of the home page. Google Maps may set its own cookies when the map is interacted with. These cookies are outside our control. We use the embedded map solely to help visitors locate our office.
We do not embed social media widgets, advertising pixels, or other third-party tracking technologies on our website.
6. Your Cookie Choices
When you first visit our website, a brief notice invites you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You may change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's stored data for this site, which will prompt the notice to reappear on your next visit.
In addition, most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You may:
- Block all cookies, or block cookies from specific websites
- Delete cookies already stored on your device
- Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is placed
Guidance on managing cookies is available from the browser providers listed below:
Please note that blocking or deleting strictly necessary cookies may affect how parts of our website function.
If you have consented to analytics cookies and wish to withdraw that consent specifically for Google Analytics, you may also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" setting which signals to websites that you would prefer not to be tracked. Our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. Your cookie preferences, as recorded through our consent notice, remain the most direct way to manage your choices on our website.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time — for example, if we change the cookies we use or if legal requirements change. The most current version will always be available on this page, with the date of the most recent revision shown at the top. Where changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to draw them to your attention.
