Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Skyflow uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device—your computer, tablet, or phone—when you browse websites. They serve various purposes, from remembering your preferences to helping us understand how people use our site.
We use cookies to make our website work properly and to improve your experience when learning about our landscaping and garden care services. Some cookies are essential. Others help us serve you better. This policy breaks down exactly what we use and why.
Types of Cookies We Use
Necessary/Essential Cookies
These cookies are required for our website to function at a basic level. Without them, things break. They handle tasks like maintaining your session while you browse, ensuring security features work correctly, and remembering your language preference if you've set one. We don't need your consent for these because the site simply wouldn't work without them.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make to give you a more personalized experience. For example, if you've previously filled out a contact form, these cookies might remember some of your details to save you time later. They make the website more convenient to use, though the site will still work if you disable them—just with less personalization.
Analytics Cookies
We may use analytics cookies to collect anonymous information about how visitors interact with our website. This includes things like which pages people visit most, how long they stay, and what brought them to our site in the first place. None of this data identifies you personally. It simply helps us understand what's working and what needs improvement so we can make the site more useful for people looking for garden design or maintenance services.
Marketing/Advertising Cookies
These cookies are only set if you give us explicit consent. They help deliver more relevant advertising by tracking your browsing activity across different websites. If you'd rather not see targeted ads, you can decline these cookies. Our site functions perfectly well without them.
Specific Cookies We Use
Here's a straightforward breakdown of the cookies you might encounter on our website:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | |-------------|---------|----------| | session_id | Maintains your browsing session and keeps you logged in if applicable | Expires when you close your browser | | consent_v1 | Stores your cookie consent preferences so we don't keep asking | 12 months | | lang_pref | Remembers your language selection | 6 months | | csrf_token | Security token that helps protect against cross-site request forgery | Session | | visitor_id | Anonymous identifier for analytics purposes | 12 months |
This list covers our primary cookies. The actual cookies you see may vary slightly depending on how you interact with the site.
Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on our website may include content or services from third parties. For instance, we might embed a map showing our location in Toronto or use external tools for analytics. These third-party services can set their own cookies, which we don't directly control.
Each third-party provider has their own cookie and privacy policies. When you interact with embedded content—clicking on a map, watching a video, or using a social sharing button—you may be subject to those third parties' cookie practices as well.
Managing Cookies
You have control over cookies. Most web browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies from websites. The exact process varies by browser, but you'll typically find these options in your browser's settings or preferences menu under "Privacy" or "Security."
Here's the trade-off, though: if you block necessary cookies, parts of our website may stop working correctly. Forms might not submit. Sessions might not persist. The experience degrades. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies, on the other hand, won't affect functionality—it just means we'll have less data about overall site usage.
For detailed instructions on managing cookies, consult your browser's help documentation. Each major browser—Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge—handles this a bit differently.
Your Consent
When you first visit our website, you'll see a notice asking whether you accept cookies beyond the strictly necessary ones. You can accept all, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your choices. That preference gets stored so we don't pester you on every page.
Changed your mind? You can update your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings. Clear our cookies, and the consent banner will appear again on your next visit, letting you make a fresh choice.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes might warrant a more prominent notice, but checking back periodically is a good habit. Continued use of our website after changes means you accept the updated policy.
