Effective Date: 22nd July, 2026
1. Introduction
This should be read together with our Privacy Policy, not on its own. Where we say "we," "us," "our," or "the Firm," we mean Brimany Attorneys, and "you" means anyone visiting www.brimanyattorneys.com or our blog at blog.brimanyattorneys.com.
We are a commercial law firm based in Port Harcourt, and our website reflects that. It is not built around advertising or heavy tracking, but a few cookies still run in the background to keep basic things working, and we owe you a clear account of what those are.
2. What a Cookie Actually Is
A cookie is a small file your browser picks up when you land on a website. It lets that website recognise your device again later and, depending on what kind it is, hold onto small details such as your browser type or the last time you visited.
Some cookies vanish the moment you shut your browser. Others sit on your device for weeks or months, quietly remembering a preference from your last visit. A cookie set directly by our own site is called first party. One that arrives because of something we have embedded — WhatsApp being the obvious example — is third party, and that provider controls it, not us. The distinction that probably matters more to you is simpler: does the site actually need this cookie to work, or is it just there for analytics, marketing, or convenience.
3. What We Actually Use Right Now
Our use of cookies is limited, and we would rather say that plainly than pad this section out. What does run on our site tends to be either strictly necessary for the page to load and function, or tied to the WhatsApp chat button in the corner of the screen, which needs its own cookie to keep a conversation connected.
We do not run Google Analytics, we do not run a Meta pixel, and we are not building a profile of how you move through our website. If that changes, and it might as we grow, we will say so here first, and where the Nigeria Data Protection Act, 2023 requires your consent before a new cookie goes live, we will ask for it before, not after.
4. Turning Cookies Off
Your browser is where the real control sits. You can allow, block, or clear cookies through its settings whenever you like. One practical note: switching off essential cookies can break parts of the site, most likely the WhatsApp chat.
Direct links for the browsers people use most:
Consent, where the law requires it, works the same way. We ask first. You can also change your mind later and withdraw it, either through your browser or by telling us directly.
5. If Something Here Changes
This Policy will move as our website does. Whenever it changes, the "Effective Date" at the top will change with it, so that date is really the only thing you need to check if you are wondering whether anything is new.
6. Reach Us
Anything unclear here, or anything you want to ask about cookies specifically, just come to us directly.
