Cookie Policy

Last updated: [DATE]

This Cookie Policy explains how [PUBLICATION NAME] may use cookies and similar technologies.

The operator should review this policy against the website’s actual implementation before publication. Features that are not installed should not be represented as active.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small pieces of information that a website or related service can store in a visitor’s browser.

They can serve different purposes, including maintaining necessary site functionality, remembering preferences, measuring website usage and supporting advertising.

Essential Technologies

Essential cookies or local-storage technologies may be used where required for core website functions, security, consent preferences or technical operation.

Because these technologies support requested website functionality, they may operate independently of optional analytics or advertising preferences where permitted.

Analytics

Analytics status: [INSTALLED / NOT INSTALLED]

If analytics are installed:

Provider: [ANALYTICS PROVIDER]

Update this section to explain which cookies or similar technologies the provider actually uses and what information is measured.

Do not list an analytics vendor simply because it may be added later.

Advertising

Advertising status: [INSTALLED / NOT INSTALLED]

If advertising technology is installed:

Provider: [ADVERTISING PROVIDER]

Update this section with the actual advertising and measurement technologies used on the site.

Preferences

The website may store choices such as cookie-consent preferences when necessary to remember a visitor’s selection.

Third-Party Websites

Following a link from [PUBLICATION NAME] to Mass.gov, an employer website or another external service may result in cookies being set by that destination according to its own policies.

[PUBLICATION NAME] does not control cookies created after a visitor leaves this website.

Managing Cookies

Visitors can use the cookie controls presented by this website where available. Browser settings may also allow cookies to be deleted or blocked.

Blocking essential browser storage can affect website functionality.

Changes

This Cookie Policy should be updated whenever the site’s analytics, advertising, consent system or other cookie-related implementation materially changes.

Questions may be sent to [CONTACT EMAIL].
