Options Regarding Cookies
Our website uses both first-party and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set directly by Options Advantage Strategy Lawsuit for site functions and analytics. Third-party cookies are set by outside services that we use on our website, such as Google Analytics for traffic data, or secure opt-in contact forms powered by trusted third parties.

Analytics and Tracking Technologies We Use
In order to best serve our clients and make improvements to our website, we employ analytics and other types of tracking technologies (foremost Google Analytics) to identify visitor patterns – for example, looking at which pages are looked at the most frequently, how long is spent on particular pages, and how a user moves through our website.
The information we gather is not personally identifiable; it is aggregated data and anonymized. We use this information to shape our content, improve the usability of our websites, and attempt to ensure that important information about investment loss recovery and legal remedies is presented in an accurate, easy-to-read format. We do not use analytics data to make automatic decisions that impact you in a meaningful way, and we do not sell or permit the dissemination of any data outside the scope of our legal services.
