This Cookie Policy explains how Cummings Termite & Pest (16918 E Colony Dr, Fountain Hills, AZ 85268) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website, and what choices you have about them.
Manage your cookie choices
You can update which non-essential cookies we use at any time.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device — computer, phone, or tablet — when you visit. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language or whether you have already seen a notice, so the site works correctly and efficiently on your next visit.
Similar technologies include web beacons (tiny transparent images embedded in pages or emails), local storage, and session storage. Where this policy refers to 'cookies,' it covers all of these technologies unless stated otherwise.
Essential (strictly necessary) cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for our website to function. Without them, services you have requested — such as filling out our contact or free-inspection request form — cannot be provided.
These cookies do not collect information that could be used to identify you for marketing purposes. Because they are essential to the operation of the site, they are placed automatically and cannot be switched off through our consent banner.
Examples include cookies that maintain your session while you complete a form and cookies that remember your cookie-consent choice so we do not ask you again on every page.
- Session management: keeps your form session active while you submit a request.
- Consent record: stores your cookie preferences so the banner does not reappear unnecessarily.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting information in aggregate and anonymous form. This data shows us which pages are visited most often, how people navigate between pages, and whether visitors encounter any errors.
We use this information to improve the structure and content of our website. The data collected is not used to identify individual visitors.
Analytics cookies are placed only if you accept them through our consent banner. You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking 'Manage Preferences' in the site footer.
- Google Analytics (or equivalent): collects anonymized traffic data such as page views, session duration, and device type. Data is retained by the analytics provider according to their own retention schedule (typically 14 months by default).
Marketing and tracking cookies
Marketing cookies track your browsing activity across websites to build a profile of your interests so that relevant advertisements can be shown to you.
If Cummings Termite & Pest runs paid advertising campaigns (for example, Google Ads or Meta Ads retargeting), the advertising platforms may place marketing cookies when you visit our site. These cookies are controlled by third-party advertising networks, not by us directly.
Marketing cookies are placed only with your consent. You can opt out at any time through our 'Manage Preferences' banner or through your browser settings as described below.
How long cookies last
Cookies either expire at the end of your browser session (session cookies) or remain on your device until a set expiry date (persistent cookies).
Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period, which varies by cookie type.
- Consent preference cookie: 12 months from the date you set your preference.
- Analytics cookies: typically up to 13 months, depending on the analytics provider's configuration.
- Marketing/advertising cookies: duration set by the third-party advertiser, typically 30 to 90 days.
- Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser tab or window.
How to control or disable cookies
You have several ways to manage cookies.
Consent banner: when you first visit our site, a banner gives you the option to accept, decline, or customize which categories of non-essential cookies are placed. You can revisit these choices at any time by clicking 'Manage Preferences' in the footer of any page.
Browser settings: all major browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings menus. The steps vary by browser; links to guidance from common browsers are listed below. Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of our website from working correctly.
Opt-out tools: for analytics and advertising, you may also use platform-specific opt-out tools such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data.
- Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on: available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies on our site are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages — for example, an embedded map, a scheduling widget, or an advertising platform. Cummings Termite & Pest does not control how those third parties use the data they collect.
We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of any third-party services you interact with on our website. Common third parties whose cookies may appear include Google (Analytics, Maps, Ads), Meta (Facebook Pixel), and any review or scheduling tools we embed.
Third-party marketing and analytics cookies are subject to your consent choices in our 'Manage Preferences' banner, where technically feasible. For cookies placed by third parties outside our control, their own opt-out mechanisms apply.
Our Privacy Policy
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides full details on how Cummings Termite & Pest collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our business practices. When we make changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page.
