This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on troublefreeinc.com, operated by Trouble Free Heating, Cooling and Plumbing Inc. Read it alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. They let a site remember your actions and settings between pages and visits. We also use related technologies such as local storage, pixels, and tags, which work the same way for the purposes described here.
2. Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary
Required for the site to work. These support page delivery, security, spam protection on our forms, and load balancing. They cannot be switched off through our site because the site will not function without them. These are typically session cookies that expire when you close your browser.
Analytics and Performance
These tell us which pages people read, how they arrived, and where they leave. We use Google Analytics through Google Tag Manager for this. The data is aggregated and helps us fix confusing pages and slow loads. Analytics cookies typically last from 24 hours up to 2 years, depending on the cookie.
Functional
These remember choices you make, such as a dismissed banner or a preference, so you do not have to set them again.
Advertising and Measurement
When we run ads, platforms such as Google Ads and Meta may set cookies to measure whether an ad led to a call or a form submission, and to limit how often you see the same ad. Under some state privacy laws this counts as sharing information for targeted advertising. Section 5 explains how to opt out.
3. Third Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by services that appear on our pages rather than by us, and we do not control them. These may include Google (Analytics, Tag Manager, Maps, Ads), Meta, and embedded map or video providers. Each provider handles that data under its own privacy policy. You can review the Google cookie notice for details on the Google services we use.
4. Do We Sell Cookie Data
We do not sell personal information for money. We do allow advertising and analytics partners to receive cookie based identifiers so we can measure results, which some state laws treat as sharing for targeted advertising. You can stop that using the controls below.
5. How to Control Cookies
You have several options, and they all work without contacting us. The fastest is our Your Privacy Choices page, which turns analytics and advertising tags off on this device immediately:
- Block or delete cookies in your browser settings
- Use a private or incognito window, which clears cookies when you close it
- Install the Google Analytics opt out add on
- Turn on a browser level opt out signal such as Global Privacy Control, which we honor where required by law
- Adjust ad settings directly with the platform, for example Google My Ad Center
Where to find cookie settings in common browsers:
- Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Third party cookies
- Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings, then Cookies and Site Permissions
Blocking cookies is your right, but some parts of the site, such as maps and form protection, may not work correctly afterward.

We update this policy when our tools or the law change. The revision date at the top shows the last update.
