This Cookie Policy explains how Monolith General Construction uses cookies and similar technologies on gc-monolith.com, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
Short version: only strictly necessary storage is used by default. Analytics and advertising cookies from Google are off until you allow them, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and scripts (“tags”). They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to site owners and advertisers. “First-party” cookies are set by the site you are visiting; “third-party” cookies are set by another company, such as Google.
Cookies and storage we use
The table lists what may be placed on your device. Analytics and advertising items are used only if you allow that category and the corresponding Google tag is active on the Site. Lifetimes are set by the provider and may change.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Lifetime | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
gc_cookie_consent | Monolith (first party; browser local storage, or a first-party cookie if storage is unavailable) | Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask on every page. | 12 months | Necessary |
_ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors to produce anonymous usage statistics. | Up to 2 years | Analytics |
_ga_<ID> | Google Analytics | Keeps session state for Google Analytics 4. | Up to 2 years | Analytics |
_gcl_au | Google Ads | Stores and measures ad conversions (“conversion linker”). | 90 days | Advertising |
_gcl_aw, _gac_<ID> | Google Ads | Record ad-click information so a later contact or conversion can be credited to the right campaign. | 90 days | Advertising |
IDE, test_cookie | Google (doubleclick.net, third party) | Ad measurement and personalization; checks whether your browser accepts cookies. | IDE: up to 13 months; test_cookie: 15 minutes | Advertising |
The Site may also use small technical items needed for it to display properly (for example, remembering that an intro animation has already played). These do not identify you and are never used for tracking.
Google Fonts
Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. This does not set cookies, but Google receives your IP address to deliver the files.
Why we use them
- Strictly necessary: required for the Site to work and to honor your choices. They do not need consent.
- Analytics: tell us which pages are useful and how visitors find us, so we can improve the Site. Used only with your consent.
- Advertising: let Google measure whether our ads lead to inquiries, and show you relevant ads on Google and partner sites, including remarketing to people who have visited the Site. Used only with your consent.
We use Google Consent Mode. Before you choose, all Google storage types (advertising storage, ad user data, ad personalization and analytics storage) are set to “denied” and no Google tag is loaded. They change only if you allow them.
How to manage your choices
On this Site. Click “Cookie Settings” in the footer of any page, or the button below, to accept or reject each category. If you withdraw consent, we stop using the related Google tags and delete the first-party Google cookies we can access. We ask for your choice again after 12 months.
In your browser. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings (see the help pages of Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge). Blocking all cookies may stop parts of some sites from working.
Advertising controls. Use Google Ads Settings to manage personalized ads, aboutads.info or optout.networkadvertising.org for industry opt-outs, and the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. Learn more about how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or remove tools or when the law changes. The “Last updated” date above shows the current version. If a change affects what you have consented to, we will ask for your choice again.
