This lets the website remember information about your previous visits and use of the website. Persistent Cookies are generally not used by Legacy unless there is a compelling and authorized reason for their use. If any Legacy web page uses a Persistent Cookie, then the Limited Privacy Policy for that Web page will clearly state the purpose and legal authority for such use. Legacy does not use Persistent Cookies to retain information.
