This Cookie Policy describes how SITE_NAME LLC (“Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them and, should you wish to do so, the ways in which you can manage their use.
Our website provides information about our custom outdoor shade structures, including metal pergolas, retractable awnings, pavilions, and commercial canopy systems, along with design inspiration and project galleries. The site is strictly for informational and inquiry purposes and does not process online purchases, payments, or orders through e-commerce.
By using this website you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this Cookie Notice.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are text files placed on your computer or mobile device to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behaviour information when you visit a website. Cookies enable a website to identify your device and track information about you (such as your preferences and actions).
Cookies allow a website to function correctly, increase the performance of the website and assist in delivering an optimal user experience. Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies you.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and related technologies to operate our site, optimize its functionality, and create a personalized experience. Cookies help us learn how visitors use our site—for example, which shade structure styles they view most often—and your computer or mobile device can be restricted to prevent sending cookies.
We do not employ cookies to sell items, process payments or record purchases, as this website does not offer e-commerce facilities.
The only cookies we use are for general operation and business purposes, such as improving our product presentation and responding to inquiries more effectively.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
This website uses cookies to improve and customise your browsing experience. Necessary cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation, viewing project images, and accessing contact or quote request forms. Some parts of the website may not work properly without these cookies.
No personal cookies are used on this website beyond those required to keep track of site visitors.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
Performance Cookies: These cookies allow us to understand how visitors use our site. They gather things like which shade structure pages are visited most frequently, how users move from one product category to another, and if they encounter any errors.
This information is gathered in a general way and is generated only for the purpose of increasing website performance, reliability, and ease of use—for instance, helping us present our most popular shade solutions more prominently. This information is used to track visitor use of the website and to compile statistical reports on website activity.
Analytics cookies do not enable us to personally identify any individual user.
Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies enable the website to recognise you, remembering your preferences (such as your preferred material or colour options) and offering enhanced personalised features—for example, showing you recently viewed shade structure designs. While not essential for the website to work, these cookies enable improved functionality and personalization.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be served through the website by third parties other than us or our service providers—for example, advertisers or design platforms that track usage across websites. These third-party service providers may use cookies to help provide their services (e.g., showing you relevant shade structure advertisements later).
We cannot control the use of third-party cookies, and their usage is governed by the privacy policies of those third parties.
Information Collected Through Cookies
We and our service providers may use cookies or similar technologies to automatically collect certain information:
- IP address
- browser type and version
- device type and operating system
- pages visited (including specific shade structure product pages)
- time spent on pages
- referring or exit pages
- general geographic region
This information serves only to help us track site performance, understand which outdoor shade designs interest our visitors most, and improve the user experience. It is not used to identify you directly.
How Long Cookies Remain
Some cookies are temporary and expire when you close your browser. These are called session cookies.
Some cookies will stay on your device between browsing sessions—they do not expire immediately—so that we can recognise you when you return for another session (for instance, to recall your previously viewed shade structure options). These are called persistent cookies.
The duration for which a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends upon its purpose and how your browser is configured.
Your Choices and Control
Most web browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can manage or disable cookies at any time via browser settings.
You may:
- delete existing cookies
- block new cookies
- receive notifications when cookies are set
- disable all cookies
Please note, however, that without cookies some of the website’s functions will not be available to you—for example, viewing high-resolution shade structure galleries or submitting inquiry forms—and we won’t be able to customise any of our content according to your preferences.
You can normally find the option to manage cookies in the help section of your browser.
Do Not Track Signals
Certain browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature. There is currently no standard response for Do Not Track requests, so there is no way to process such a notice or any other purported mechanism of opting out of data collection or use that would be akin to users stopping by your business without notice.
Data Protection and Security
Our Privacy Policy is applicable to any information collected through cookies. We employ reasonable security measures to protect data collected online, including information related to your inquiries about our shade structures.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may change this Cookie Policy from time to time as we add new features—such as new shade structure product lines, interactive design tools, or virtual previews—or make other changes to our website that affect our cookies. We will post any material changes to this policy on this page, with a notice that such policy has been updated and a new effective date.
Your use of the site after a modified policy has been posted will constitute your acceptance of that policy.
