What Are Cookies?
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Hleb Staver, doing business as IcyShine Detailing (“we,” “us,” or “our”), uses them on icyshinedetailing.com (the “Site”), the types of cookies we use, and how you can manage your preferences.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, stay secure, and understand how visitors use the Site so it can be improved over time.
How We Use Cookies
We use both first-party and third-party cookies:
- Strictly necessary cookies are required for the Site to function (e.g., remembering your cookie preferences, enabling booking forms to work). These do not require consent and cannot be switched off through our banner.
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) help us understand how visitors interact with the Site — which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and where they came from — so we can improve the Site and our services.
- Advertising/marketing cookies (Google Ads, and where applicable, Meta/Facebook Pixel) are used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and to show you more relevant ads about our services when you visit other websites.
These third parties may process the information collected through their cookies in accordance with their own privacy policies, which may include combining it with other data they hold about you. See Google’s Privacy Policy (policies.google.com/privacy) and Meta’s Privacy Policy (www.facebook.com/privacy/policy) for details.
We do not currently use session-replay software or live-chat tools that record your interactions with the Site.
Consent and Your Choices
Analytics and advertising cookies do not run when you first load the Site. When you visit, a cookie banner asks you to accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies. Analytics and advertising scripts — including Google Analytics, Google Ads, and any Meta Pixel — only begin running after you provide affirmative consent through that banner.
Global Privacy Control (GPC). If your browser or a browser extension sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we automatically treat non-essential cookies as declined each time you visit with the signal active, without requiring any further action from you.
Do Not Track (DNT). Because there is currently no common industry standard for recognizing DNT browser signals, we do not respond to DNT signals differently from Global Privacy Control. If you enable GPC, we honor it as described above.
You can change your preferences at any time by clicking Cookie Settings, available at the bottom of every page of the Site. This reopens the consent banner so you can update or withdraw your choices.
You can also manage or delete cookies directly through your browser settings. Disabling cookies at the browser level may affect how parts of the Site function.
