Cookie Policy
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Summit Plumbing (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on this website (the “Website”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. By using the Website, you consent to the use of cookies as described here, except where your consent is required by law and not given.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve efficiency, and to provide reporting information. Cookies may be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (which remain until they expire or are deleted). Similar technologies include pixels, web beacons, and local storage.
3. How We Use Cookies
- Operate the Website — enable core functionality such as page navigation, security, and form submission;
- Remember preferences — such as settings you have selected;
- Understand usage — collect anonymous or aggregated statistics about how visitors use the Website so we can improve it;
- Marketing (where applicable) — measure the effectiveness of campaigns and, on some sites, deliver relevant content.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required for the Website to function; cannot be switched off. | Security, load balancing, form/session handling |
| Performance / analytics | Help us understand how visitors interact with the Website (aggregated). | Google Analytics or similar |
| Functional | Remember choices you make to provide enhanced features. | Language or display preferences |
| Marketing (only if enabled) | Track visits across websites to measure and improve advertising. | Advertising / retargeting pixels |
The specific cookies set depend on the features and third-party services active on this Website.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third parties that provide services on our behalf (for example, analytics providers or embedded content such as maps or videos). We do not control these cookies, and their use is governed by the relevant third party’s own privacy and cookie policies.
6. Managing Your Cookies
Most browsers let you view, manage, delete, and block cookies. You can usually find these controls in your browser’s “Settings,” “Preferences,” or “Privacy” menu. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the Website to stop working properly. To manage analytics or advertising cookies specifically, you can also use industry opt-out tools where available.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. There is currently no consistent industry standard for responding to DNT signals, so the Website may not respond to them. We will update this policy if that changes.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. The date above shows when it was last revised. Please check back periodically.
