This Cookie Policy applies to the website at claimpress.com, operated by Claimpress Inc., a licensed public adjuster firm located at 23-23 Borden Ave, Long Island City, NY 11101.

1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website owners about how visitors use their sites.
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by other parties — such as analytics providers or advertising networks — are called "third-party cookies."
Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them).
2. How We Use Cookies
Claimpress Inc. uses cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential operation — to make our website function correctly, including contact forms, session management, and security
- Analytics — to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it
- Functionality — to remember your preferences and settings
- Performance — to ensure pages load quickly and reliably
We do not use cookies for targeted advertising or to track your activity across other websites for marketing purposes.

4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these cookies — they are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay, and where they come from. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Google Maps
Our website may embed Google Maps to display our office location. Google Maps may set cookies when the map is loaded. These cookies are governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
WordPress Plugins
If we use certain WordPress plugins (such as contact form plugins, caching plugins, or security plugins), those plugins may set their own cookies. We will update this table as additional plugins are added.
5. Your Cookie Choices & How to Control Cookies
You have several ways to control or limit cookies on our website:
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit claimpress.com, we display a cookie consent banner at the bottom of the screen. You can Accept all cookies or Decline non-essential cookies. If you decline, only strictly essential cookies will be set. You can change your preference at any time by clearing the cp_cookie_consent cookie from your browser settings.
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete some or all cookies
- Block third-party cookies
- Block all cookies (note: this may affect website functionality)
- Set your browser to notify you before a cookie is set
Instructions for managing cookies in the most common browsers:
Please note: Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of our contact forms and other interactive features on this website. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the site to function.
Opt-Out of Google Analytics
To opt out of Google Analytics tracking specifically, you can install the free Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, which prevents Google Analytics JavaScript from sending information to Google about your visit.
6. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Our website does not currently alter its behavior in response to DNT signals, but we will revisit this as standards develop.
