Cookies Policy
Introduction
Effective date: September 30, 2026
This Cookies Policy explains how First Colonial Construction (“First Colonial,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on firstcolonialconstruction.com (the “Website”). It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control them.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and handle personal information.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit. They let the site remember your actions and preferences (such as your consent choices) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them each time you return.
- First-party cookies are set by our Website directly.
- Third-party cookies are set by other services we use, such as analytics or social media providers.
- Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
We may also use similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, which work in a comparable way. In this policy, we refer to all of them as “cookies.”
Types of Cookies We Use
We group cookies into four categories. Only Necessary cookies are active by default; the others load only if you allow them through our cookie banner.
Necessary cookies are essential for the Website to function. They remember your cookie consent choices, keep the site secure, and enable core features. They do not require your consent and cannot be switched off.
Functional cookies support features such as social media content feeds, content sharing, and third-party tools embedded on our pages.
Analytical cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website, such as the number of visitors, pages viewed, time spent, and traffic sources. We use this information to improve our content and services.
Advertisement cookies are used to show relevant ads and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. They may track your activity across other websites.
Third-Party Services
Some cookies are placed by third parties whose services we use. We do not control these cookies; their use is governed by each provider’s own privacy policy.
- Google Analytics (via MonsterInsights): measures Website traffic and usage. Learn more in the Google Privacy Policy. You can opt out with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- Google Fonts: delivers the typefaces used on the Website. Loading fonts sends your IP address to Google but does not set cookies.
- Social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn): our social feeds and profile links may allow these platforms to set cookies, especially if you are logged in to them. See the Meta Privacy Policy and the LinkedIn Cookie Policy.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies at any time.
- Cookie banner: on your first visit, choose Accept All, Reject All, or Customize to enable individual categories.
- Change your mind later: click the cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of any page to reopen your preferences and update your choices.
- Browser settings: most browsers let you block or delete cookies. See the help pages for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge.
- Advertising opt-outs: you can limit interest-based ads through the Digital Advertising Alliance and the Network Advertising Initiative.
Blocking some cookies may affect how the Website works, such as loading embedded social feeds.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, including Texas under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, you may have the right to opt out of targeted advertising and the sale of your personal data. You can exercise this right by rejecting Advertisement cookies in our cookie preferences or by contacting us using the details below. For more information about your rights, please see our Privacy Policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Please check back periodically.
