Propensity management is the management of an individual’s inclination or natural tendency toward certain interests, products, needs, and so on. In order to tailor our communications with you to make sure that we are addressing your specific needs and not overwhelming you with unwanted information, we use Cookies to handle propensity management. A cookie is a piece of information that is stored on your computer’s hard drive by your Web browser. When you revisit FreeWill.com our server recognizes the cookie, giving us information about your last visit. Most browsers accept Cookies automatically, but you can alter the settings of your browser to prevent automatic acceptance. If you choose not to receive Cookies, you can opt out in your browser, but you will still be able to use most of the features of our web site.
This Cookie Policy describes how FreeWill, our partners, and our other third parties use cookies or similar technologies (such as pixel tags, web beacons, and clear GIFs). We refer to these cookies and similar technologies simply as “Cookies” throughout this Policy. We also describe what options you may have regarding those Cookies. This Policy covers FreeWill’s use of Cookies that may be used in connection with the websites (including mobile websites and apps) owned and controlled by FreeWill (the “Sites”).In some cases, we may use Cookies to collect information that is defined as personal data, or that can become personal data if we combine it with other information. In such cases, the FreeWill Global Data Privacy Policy will apply in addition to this FreeWill Cookie Policy.
Cookies are small files, usually consisting of letters and numbers, placed on your computer, tablet, phone, or similar device, when you use that device to visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites operate more efficiently and provide analytical information.
These are the different types of Cookies we and our service providers may use on our Sites:
We and our service providers may use Cookies for a variety of purposes, including to:
If you register on one of our Sites or otherwise provide us with your personal information, we may associate that information with other information we collect from or about you or that you provide, information regarding your use of our Sites, or information we receive from or about you from third parties. We will use this combined data for marketing and analytics purposes.
Some of our Cookies operate from the time you visit a FreeWill service to the end of that particular web-browsing session. These Cookies expire and are automatically deleted when you close your internet browser. These Cookies are called “session” Cookies.
Some Cookies will stay on your device between browsing sessions. They do not expire when you close your browser. These Cookies are called “persistent” Cookies. The length of time a persistent cookie stays on your device varies from cookie to cookie. We and others use persistent Cookies for a variety of purposes, such as to store your preferences so that they are available for the next visit, and to keep a more accurate account of how often you visit our Sites, how often you return, how your use of the Sites may vary over time, and the effectiveness of advertising efforts.
Cookies may be placed on your device by FreeWill as the Site operator. These Cookies are called “first party” Cookies. Some Cookies may be placed on your device by a party other than FreeWill. These Cookies are called “third party” Cookies. For example, a FreeWill partner may place a third-party cookie to enable online chat services.
Cookies may also be used that allow us and third parties to know when you visit our Sites, and to understand how you interact with emails, advertisements, or other content. Through Cookies, aggregate and other information not considered to be personal data (such as your operating system, browser version, and the URL you came from, including from emails and advertisements) may be obtained and used to enhance your experience and understand traffic patterns. This technology counts the number of users who visit a particular service from specific banner advertisements outside the FreeWill Site or who clicked on links or graphics included in email newsletters received from FreeWill. It is also used as a tool to compile aggregated statistics about how FreeWill Sites are used, to perform analytics and help us to optimize our Sites, and to help serve you advertising based on your interests, as described in further detail below.
We and third parties, including technology and non-profit partners, and service providers engage in interest-based advertising to deliver advertisements and personalized content that we and other advertisers believe will be of interest to you. To the extent third party vendors are using Cookies to perform these services for FreeWill, FreeWill does not control the use of this technology or the resulting information and is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.
Ads may be delivered to you based on your online or mobile behavior (on FreeWill Sites and non-FreeWill websites), your search activity, your responses to one of our advertisements or emails, the pages you visit, your general geographic location, or other information. These ads may appear on our Sites or on third party websites.
You can decide whether or not to accept Cookies. FreeWill complies with all applicable data protection laws, and all applicable global regulations related to the use of Cookies. Where applicable by local law, visitors to our Sites are asked whether or not they want Cookies placed on their browsers. If you choose not to have Cookies placed on your device, FreeWill will comply with your opt out and no Cookies that we personally control will be placed on your device. In countries where an explicit opt in is not required, we offer you the opportunity to opt out at any time; otherwise, we will place Cookies on your device for the purposes stated above.
It is important to know that FreeWill adheres to all applicable Cookie regulations and data protection laws. As data protection laws change around the world, FreeWill changes our policies, procedures, and processes to ensure compliance with all relevant laws, regulations, and directives.

Where required by law, we require an explicit opt-in from you before placing any Cookies on your devices. If local law does not require an explicit opt-in, we offer you the opportunity to opt-out.
