This Cookie Policy explains how Teknik Inc. (doing business as Teknik Design & Remodeling) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.teknikinc.com. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help a site remember your visit — for example, to measure which pages are most useful. Related technologies such as browser local storage work similarly; we use the word “cookies” to cover both.
Cookies we use
Call tracking. We use CallTrackingMetrics to show a phone number that connects your call with the website visit or advertisement that brought you here. This service loads separately from optional analytics and may use cookies to connect visits with calls. Accepting or declining optional analytics does not turn call tracking on or off. You can also block cookies in your browser settings.
Analytics cookies (optional). We use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors use the Site. Outside the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland it is on by default and sets the following cookies, which you can turn off at any time (see Your choices below). Visitors in those regions have it off until they accept:
- _ga — distinguishes visitors; expires after 2 years;
- _ga_* — maintains session state; expires after 2 years.
We also use Microsoft Clarity for heatmaps and session recordings to understand navigation and find usability problems. Clarity runs only if you accept cookies in the cookie banner. It does not run before you choose or if you decline. When it runs, its _clck and _clsk cookies connect visits and page views, and form input contents are masked. Read Microsoft’s privacy statement for information about Microsoft’s processing.
Your preference (essential). We store your cookie choice in your browser’s local storage (teknik-cookie-consent-v2) so we don’t ask again on every visit. It stays until you clear your browser data or change your choice.
Embedded content (third party). Videos on the Site are embedded using YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode, which sets no cookies unless you press play. Our contact page includes an interactive Google Map, which may set Google cookies when loaded. These are governed by Google’s privacy policy.
Advertising measurement. When you arrive from one of our Google ads, Google Ads measurement (including its conversion linker cookie) records whether the visit led to an inquiry. Its cookies (_gcl_*) follow the same choice as analytics. We do not use remarketing or personalized advertising.
Your choices
Outside the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland, analytics and advertising measurement cookies are on by default. You can turn them off, or back on, at any time with Your Privacy Choices at the bottom of every page or the button below. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we turn Google advertising measurement off automatically; call tracking continues as described above. In the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland, these cookies stay off until you accept, and we show the choice on your first visit.
Clicking links or scrolling does not count as acceptance. Declining removes existing first-party analytics and advertising measurement cookies and stops session recording, including after an earlier acceptance. Google measurement tags can still send cookieless signals after you decline, or before you choose where we ask first. Changing your choice does not erase data already collected. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or install Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The Site remains fully functional without analytics cookies.
Changes to this policy
If we add or change the cookies we use, we will update this page and the “Last updated” date above.
