How we use cookies and similar technologies on our website

Last Updated: August 1, 2023

This Cookie Policy explains how Tom's Cleaning Services ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website tomlyonaya-ikra.com ("Site"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

Please read this Cookie Policy carefully. By continuing to browse or use our Site, you agree that we can store and access cookies and other tracking technologies as described in this policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the website owners. Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies:

  • Persistent cookies remain on your device even after you close your browser until you delete them or they expire.
  • Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device once you close your browser.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies for various reasons. Depending on their purpose, cookies may be classified as follows:

2.1 Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Site to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the Site. The Site cannot function properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions you take that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Site will not work properly.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources, to measure and improve the performance of our Site. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our Site.

2.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

2.4 Marketing Cookies

These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

3. Specific Cookies We Use

Below is a list of the main cookies we use and what we use them for:

4. Other Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies on our Site, including:

4.1 Web Beacons

Small graphic images (also known as "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs") that may be included on our Site, which typically work in conjunction with cookies to identify our users and user behavior.

4.2 Local Storage Objects

Various types of local storage that may be available in your browser, such as HTML5 Web Storage and Web SQL Database. These technologies are similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

5.1 Cookie Preference Center

When you first visit our Site, you will be presented with a cookie banner that allows you to accept or decline different types of cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking on the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of our Site.

5.2 Browser Settings

You can also manage cookies through your web browser settings. Most browsers will allow you to block, delete, or disable cookies. Please note that if you choose to block or delete cookies, you may lose some of the functionality of the Site. The method for disabling cookies varies by browser, but it's typically found in the settings or preferences menu. Below are links to instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Apple Safari
  • Microsoft Edge

5.3 Third-Party Opt-Outs

For cookies and tracking technologies from third-party analytics providers, you may be able to opt-out through these providers' own tools:

  • Google Analytics: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

5.4 Do Not Track

Some browsers incorporate a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that, when turned on, signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret DNT signals, our Site does not currently respond to DNT signals. You can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the ability to opt out of receiving marketing from us as described above.

6. How We Use the Information Collected

We use the information collected through cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • To enable essential features of our Site
  • To remember your preferences and settings
  • To analyze how visitors use our Site so we can improve functionality and user experience
  • To understand the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
  • To personalize your experience on our Site
  • To detect and prevent fraud

For more information about how we use personal information collected through our Site, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our Site are placed by third parties, such as Google Analytics, which provide us with website analytics and performance measurement services. These third parties may also use cookies to collect information about your online activities across different websites. We do not control these third-party cookies and recommend that you check the relevant third-party website for information about how they use cookies.

8. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, our business operations, or any other reason we determine is necessary or appropriate.
