Cookie Consent: When you first visit our website, a banner will appear at the bottom of the page asking for your consent to use cookies. You may accept or learn more before deciding. Your preference is saved in your browser's local storage.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to give website owners information about how their site is used.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as localStorage — a browser-based storage mechanism used to save your cookie consent preference so we do not ask again on subsequent visits.
2. How We Use Cookies
Rapid Wrench Auto Care uses cookies and localStorage for the following purposes:
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary / Functional
- cookiesAccepted (localStorage) — Stores your cookie consent decision. This entry is set when you click "Accept" on the cookie banner. It prevents the banner from appearing on every page visit. This is not a tracking cookie; it contains only the value "true" and no personal data. Duration: Persistent (until cleared by you).
Third-Party Cookies
- Google Fonts — When our pages load, your browser requests font files from Google's servers (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). Google may set cookies or log your IP address as part of this request. We use Google Fonts solely for typography. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.
- Font Awesome (cdnjs.cloudflare.com) — We load icon assets from the Cloudflare CDN. Cloudflare may log standard server access data including IP address. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
- Formspree — When you submit the service request form on our Contact page, data is transmitted to Formspree's servers. Formspree may use cookies or similar technologies in connection with form processing. See Formspree's Privacy Policy.
Analytics Cookies
- We do not currently use analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics). If we add analytics in the future, this policy will be updated and your consent re-requested.
4. Cookie Consent Banner
On your first visit to our website, a consent banner will appear at the bottom of the screen. You have the following options:
- Accept — You consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. The banner will not appear again on this device/browser.
- Learn More — You will be directed to this Cookie Policy page for full details.
If you do not click "Accept," strictly necessary local storage (cookiesAccepted) will not be set, and the banner will continue to appear on each visit.
5. How to Manage and Delete Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some websites. Here's how to manage cookies in common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
To clear your cookie consent preference specifically, you can clear your browser's localStorage for our site, or clear all site data in your browser settings. This will cause the cookie banner to reappear on your next visit.
6. Do Not Track
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals your preference not to be tracked. Because there is no established industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, we do not currently alter our data practices in response to DNT signals.
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our website evolves or as regulations change. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. We recommend reviewing this policy periodically.
