Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how HVAM Windows and Doors Corp, dba GlassIQ ("GlassIQ," "we," "our," "us"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on glassiq.net (the "Site"). It supplements our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — preferences, login state, items in a cart, what pages you viewed. Cookies make websites work better and let owners understand how visitors use them.

Beyond traditional cookies, we may use similar technologies — local storage, session storage, web beacons, pixel tags — for similar purposes. References to "cookies" in this policy include those technologies.

2. Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are required for the Site to function. They enable basic features like page navigation and form submission. The Site cannot operate properly without them. You cannot disable strictly necessary cookies through our Site, though you can block them in your browser settings (some Site functions may not work as a result).

Performance and analytics cookies

These collect aggregated information about how visitors use the Site — which pages they visit, how long they stay, which links they click. We use this data to improve the Site. The information is collected in aggregate and is not used to identify individuals.

We may use Google Analytics (or a comparable service) for this purpose. If used, Google Analytics sets cookies starting with _ga or _gid. You can opt out of Google Analytics at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make — like your preferred form values, dismissed banners, or accessibility preferences — to provide a more personalized experience. Disabling them does not break the Site but may require re-entering preferences each visit.

Marketing / advertising cookies

If we run paid advertising campaigns, third-party advertising networks (Google Ads, Facebook/Meta, etc.) may set cookies to measure ad effectiveness, attribute conversions, and serve relevant ads. We do not currently sell your personal information through these networks, and you can opt out of personalized advertising through the network's controls or the Digital Advertising Alliance at aboutads.info/choices.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies on the Site are set by third parties whose services appear or are embedded on our pages — for example:

Google Fonts — to load our typefaces. Google receives a request from your browser to deliver fonts; their cookies are not directly under our control.
Google Maps — the embedded showroom map sets cookies from google.com.
Tailwind CDN — loads the CSS framework that styles the Site.
Analytics providers (if and when used) — to measure traffic patterns.

These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they handle the data their cookies collect. We recommend reviewing the cookie policies of any third-party services you interact with.

4. How to manage cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

See what cookies are stored and delete them individually
Block third-party cookies
Block cookies from specific sites
Block all cookies (this will likely break parts of most websites, including ours)
Receive a notification before a cookie is set

Instructions vary by browser. Common ones:

5. Do Not Track signals

Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. There is no universal industry standard for how to interpret DNT, and we do not currently respond to DNT signals. We do, however, honor opt-out mechanisms described above (Google Analytics opt-out, DAA opt-out, browser settings).

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. Material changes will be noted by updating the "Last updated" date at the top. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance.
