We use cookies to help improve your experience of our website at usehandyman.com and its subdomains. This Cookie Policy is part of Use Handyman's Privacy Policy. It covers the use of cookies between your device and our site.

We also provide basic information on third-party services we may use, who may also use cookies as part of their service. This policy does not cover their cookies.

What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit. It typically contains information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognize your web browser when you return, additional data that serves the cookie's purpose, and the lifespan of the cookie itself.

Cookies are used to enable certain features (for example, logging in), track site usage (for example, analytics), store your user settings (for example, time zone and notification preferences), and to personalize your content (for example, advertising and language).

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are usually referred to as first-party cookies. They typically only track your activity on that particular site.

Cookies set by other sites and companies (that is, third parties) are called third-party cookies. They can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service.
