Introduction
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember things about your visit—like your preferences or whether you're logged in. At Clearcore, we use cookies to make our website work properly and to understand how visitors interact with our pages.
This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them. We've tried to keep things straightforward. If something's unclear, reach out to us.
Types of Cookies We Use
Not all cookies do the same job. Here's a breakdown of the categories you'll encounter on our site.
Necessary/Essential Cookies
These are the ones the website genuinely needs to function. Without them, basic things break—forms won't submit, pages won't load correctly, security features won't work. We don't ask for your consent to use these because, frankly, the site wouldn't operate without them. They handle things like keeping you logged in during a session and protecting against security threats.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your choices so we don't have to ask you the same questions every time you visit. Did you pick a particular language? These cookies remember that. They make your experience smoother, but they're not strictly essential. If you disable them, the site still works—it just might be slightly less convenient.
Analytics Cookies
We want to know how people actually use our website. Which pages do visitors spend time on? Where do they click? Analytics cookies collect this information anonymously. They help us figure out what's working and what isn't, so we can improve. No names, no personal details—just aggregate numbers.
Marketing/Advertising Cookies
These cookies track your browsing habits to show you more relevant advertisements. We only set these with your explicit consent. If you'd rather not have your activity tracked for advertising purposes, simply decline when prompted. The site works fine without them.
Specific Cookies We Use
Here's a rundown of the actual cookies you might find stored by our site:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | |-------------|---------|----------| | session_id | Maintains your session while browsing. Keeps things working as you navigate between pages. | Expires when you close your browser | | consent_v1 | Stores your cookie preferences so we don't keep asking every visit. | 12 months | | lang_pref | Remembers your language selection. | 6 months | | csrf_token | Security cookie that helps prevent cross-site request forgery attacks. | Session | | analytics_opt | Records whether you've consented to analytics tracking. | 12 months |
We've kept this list to what we actually use. We're not going to pretend we deploy dozens of sophisticated tracking systems when we don't.
Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on our website may include content from other services—embedded maps showing our location, for instance, or external tools we use to improve functionality. These third parties may set their own cookies, which we don't control.
When you interact with these embedded elements, you're subject to those third parties' cookie policies. We recommend reviewing their privacy documentation if you're concerned about how they handle data.
Managing Cookies
You're in control here. Most web browsers let you manage cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies (though this will likely break many websites, including ours)
- Block only third-party cookies
- Clear existing cookies
- Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed
A word of caution: if you disable necessary cookies, parts of our website simply won't work. Forms might fail. Sessions might not persist. It's your choice, but that's the trade-off.
For instructions on managing cookies, check your browser's help documentation. The process varies depending on whether you're using Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, or something else.
Your Consent
When you first visit our website, you'll see a prompt asking about cookies. You can accept all of them, reject non-essential ones, or customize your preferences. It's not a trick question. Pick what you're comfortable with.
Changed your mind later? No problem. You can adjust your cookie settings through your browser at any time. Clearing your cookies will reset things, and you'll see the consent prompt again on your next visit.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy from time to time. Maybe the law changes, maybe we start using new tools, maybe we just want to clarify something. When we make updates, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top.
We won't send you an email every time we tweak a comma. But if we make significant changes to how we use cookies, we'll make that clear.

We're a cleaning company, not a tech giant, so our cookie practices are pretty simple. But we're happy to explain anything that needs explaining.
