This Cookie Policy explains how D&L Garage Doors uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by other websites that provide content or functionality on the page you're viewing ("third-party cookies").
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several reasons:
- Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms.
- Performance & Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve our website's performance and user experience.
- Functional Cookies: These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences or providing location-based services.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
- Session management and security
- Form submission and validation
- Load balancing and performance optimization
Analytics Cookies
- Google Analytics 4: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site, including pages visited, time on site, and traffic sources. This data is aggregated and anonymous.

Third-Party Service Cookies
- Google Maps: Used to display interactive maps and provide location-based services on our website.
4. How Long Do Cookies Last?
Cookies can be either:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period (from days to years) or until you manually delete them.
Most of our analytics cookies are persistent and expire after 1-2 years. Essential cookies typically last for the duration of your browsing session.

6. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers support "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. However, there is no industry consensus on how to respond to these signals. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals, but you can control cookies through your browser settings as described above.
