This notice explains browser storage and measurement on this website, operated by Graywater Plumbing LLC. First-party measurement starts on and can be turned off. Advertising tags are not enabled. Projects are available without accepting cookies, including when measurement is off or Global Privacy Control is active.
Change your choices
The same control is in every page footer. Turn first-party measurement off and save, or use “Turn measurement off” to apply that choice immediately. You can continue to browse, call, email or request an estimate.
What “Got it” does
“Got it” acknowledges and dismisses the notice. It saves the current measurement setting and keeps advertising tracking off. It does not accept terms, subscribe you to messages or grant permission for future trackers. Closing Cookie Choices without saving leaves the previous settings in place.
Storage used by this website
“Inquiry source details” is a separate choice that starts off. If you enable it, campaign labels and the referring website from the current page can accompany an estimate request. It does not collect advertising click IDs or browsing history. “Got it” never enables it. Turning measurement off or sending Global Privacy Control also disables it.
| Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| graywater_privacy cookie | Necessary. Measurement and inquiry-source choices, notice acknowledgement, policy version and update time. Sent only to this website’s host. | Up to 180 days. |
| graywater_privacy local storage | Necessary. A copy of the same settings for persistence and synchronization between tabs. | The site stops using it after 180 days. The browser may retain the expired value until replaced or cleared. |
| Estimate form memory | Current form entries while the page is open. Not a cookie or persistent storage. | Until a full page reload or the tab is closed. |
| graywater_lead_journey session storage | Necessary current form context, such as the selected page, service and contact action. No name, phone number, message or advertising identifier. | Until the tab is closed or its storage is cleared. |
Our first-party measurement creates no analytics cookie, visitor ID or advertising identifier. The privacy cookie uses SameSite=Lax and Secure on HTTPS and is not shared across ARCHIFX subdomains. Blocking storage can prevent us remembering the choice; Cookie Choices explains when it applies only to the current page.
How first-party measurement works
With measurement on, the browser sends a page path and one of four actions to this website’s own server: page view, phone-link click, email-link click or estimate-form opening. The server adds to a daily total for that page and action. It does not store visitor IDs, IP addresses, form fields, referring addresses, advertising IDs or query strings in the measurement store.
These are counts, not unique visitors or completed calls. Reloads and return visits can increase them. Turning measurement off stops future measurement requests from this browser. Necessary technical and security logs used to deliver and protect the website remain separate.
Browser signals and returning visits
Global Privacy Control turns measurement off in the browser and server, even if a saved setting was on. With that signal active, the measurement switch stays off. The older Do Not Track setting does not have a separate control here.
A saved choice applies across pages and tabs on this host. The notice returns if the choice expires, storage is cleared or the policy version changes. An expired or unreadable record keeps measurement off until a new choice is saved. A browser with no previous record starts with first-party measurement on. Choices do not transfer automatically to a different website domain.
Third-party tools and changes
Google Consent Mode v2 is configured with Google analytics storage, advertising storage, advertising user data and ad personalization denied. Google Analytics, Google Ads and Meta Pixel are not active. Our first-party measurement choice does not grant permission for these separate tools, and “Got it” does not enable them.
We retrieve published project photos, reviews and replies from RealWork through our server and display them here. Its tracking widget, cookies and scripts do not run in your browser. Project viewing is separate from measurement and remains available when you opt out. Provider storage created by an earlier visit may remain until it expires or you clear it in your browser. Following an external link to RealWork opens its service under its own privacy policy.
