Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites work properly, improve user experience, and provide information to site owners. Websites can also store information on your device using local storage, which works in a similar way and is covered by the same rules.
How We Use Cookies
Baskal's Garage sets no cookies of its own. We store a single item in your browser's local storage, which is strictly necessary to remember a choice you have made. We do not use:
- Analytics cookies
- Advertising cookies
- Third-party tracking cookies
- Social media cookies
What We Store
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | How to remove it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| cookieBannerDismissed | Local storage (not a cookie), strictly necessary | Remembers that you dismissed the cookie banner so it is not shown to you again. It holds the value "true" and no personal data. | Until you clear your browser storage | Clear site data for this website in your browser settings. The banner will appear again on your next visit. |
Because this is the only item we store and it is strictly necessary to honour a choice you made, we show you a notice rather than asking for consent. No storage is placed on your device for analytics, advertising, or profiling at any point.
Third-Party Services
Our location section includes a Google Maps widget. The map does notload automatically. Nothing is requested from Google, and no Google cookies are set, unless you click the "Load Map" button. If you do load the map, Google may set its own cookies and receive your IP address. Those cookies are governed by Google's Privacy Policy, and we do not have control over them. You can view our location without loading the map by using the "Open in Google Maps" link instead, which takes you to Google's own site.
Managing Cookies
You can manage cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View and delete cookies and stored site data
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from specific sites
- Block all cookies
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of this website.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to review this page periodically for the latest information on our cookie practices.
