Cookie Policy
What cookies and similar technologies we and our partners use, and how to manage them.
Effective Date: May 3, 2026 • Last updated: May 3, 2026
1. About This Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how TF Handy Wash and our third-party partners use cookies and similar technologies (pixel tags, web beacons, local storage) on tfhandywash.com. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device. They let the site remember your preferences (such as a dark/light theme), measure how the site is used, and (in some cases) deliver advertising. Local storage works similarly but stays in your browser rather than being sent back to a server.
3. Categories of Cookies on This Site
Strictly necessary — required for the site to work. We do not set these for tracking; they support hosting, security, and your basic preferences.
| Source | Purpose | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Netlify | Hosting, edge CDN, security headers | Server |
tfhw-theme | Remembers your dark/light theme choice | localStorage |
Analytics — help us understand how visitors use the site. They may be set by third-party providers we use:
| Provider | Purpose | More info |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Pageviews, sessions, traffic sources, audience metrics | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google Tag Manager | Loads measurement tags | Google Privacy Policy |
| Microsoft Clarity | Session recording, heatmaps, behavioral analytics | Microsoft Privacy Statement |
Marketing / advertising — help measure ad performance and (where applicable) personalize ads:
| Provider | Purpose | More info |
|---|---|---|
| Facebook Pixel (Meta) | Conversion tracking, audience matching | Meta Privacy Policy |
| Google Ads (if active) | Conversion tracking and remarketing | Google Privacy Policy |
Embedded content — cookies set when third-party content (videos, maps) loads on a page:
| Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|
| YouTube | Embedded video playback, view counts |
| Google Maps | Map and directions display |
| Google Fonts | Web font delivery |
4. How Long Anything Lasts
Because this site sets no cookies, there is no cookie duration to report: no session cookie that ends when you close the browser, and no persistent cookie with an expiry date.
What the site does store is your accessibility preferences, held in your browser’s local storage rather than in a cookie. Those have no expiry date, because no server sets one. They remain on your own device until you change the setting back or clear this site’s data in your browser, and they are never transmitted to us.
5. Consent Banner
This site shows a cookie consent banner on your first visit. You can accept all cookies or reject non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored for 12 months. You can change your preference at any time using the "Manage cookies" link in the footer of any page. The following automatic protections also apply:
- If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat that as an opt-out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising under U.S. state privacy laws.
- You can use your browser's cookie controls to block or delete cookies at any time (see Section 5).
- You can opt out of Google Analytics directly with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- You can opt out of many advertising cookies via the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance.
If you visit this site from the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with a GDPR-equivalent law, please contact us at help@tfhandywash.com if you would like us to suppress non-essential cookies for your visit until our consent banner is live.
6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Here are the most common:
Note: blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect basic site functionality.
7. Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC)
Some browsers send a Do Not Track (DNT) or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. We honor a GPC signal as an opt-out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. The DNT standard is not uniformly defined, so we do not currently process DNT signals separately.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add, remove, or change tools that set cookies. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change.
