Cookie Policy
Effective Date: August 26, 2026
HWOOD MECH, INC., doing business as Hollywood Mechanic (“Hollywood Mechanic,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies on https://hollywoodmechanic.com. This Cookie Policy explains what those technologies are, why they may be used, how Cookie Settings work, how we treat qualifying browser privacy preference signals, and how you can manage available choices. Read this Policy with our Privacy Policy and Your Privacy Choices and Data Rights page. For cookie or privacy assistance, use the Contact Us form and state “Cookie Inquiry” or “Privacy Request.”
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on a browser or device. Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, local storage, session storage, scripts, SDKs, APIs, device identifiers, embedded content controls, and server side event tools that recognize a browser or device or support a website function. A technology may be placed by Hollywood Mechanic or by a third party provider. It may be session-based or persist for a stated period. The current Cookie Settings declaration identifies the technologies, providers, stated purposes, categories, and duration or session status where available.
Necessary Technologies
Necessary technologies support limited core functions, such as website delivery, security, fraud prevention, storage of privacy preferences, shopping cart and checkout, payment support, account and session management, accessibility, and error management. A technology is not necessary merely because it is useful, commercially valuable, analytic, difficult to disable, or supplied by a third party.
Preferences Technologies
Preferences technologies may remember non-essential choices, such as language, display, saved settings, accessibility related preferences, or enhanced user-interface features. If you reject them, some convenience features may be unavailable or less convenient, but ordinary core browsing and checkout should remain available unless the feature itself necessarily requires the technology.
Statistics Technologies
Statistics technologies may help Hollywood Mechanic understand website traffic, page use, technical performance, attribution, and how to improve content or Services. They are not necessary for ordinary browsing or checkout and operate according to the relevant choice where required.
Marketing Technologies
Marketing technologies may measure advertising, support attribution, build or measure audiences, connect website activity with advertising platforms, support cross context behavioral advertising, enable campaign reporting, or activate comparable functions. If such a configuration is treated as sale, sharing, or targeted advertising under applicable law, Hollywood Mechanic provides applicable notice and opt-out controls.
Embedded Content
Maps, videos, social media widgets, review tools, chat, booking tools, payment widgets, CAPTCHA, fonts, and other embedded services may process information about your device or activity. Where configured as optional, the service remains blocked until you make the relevant choice. If you activate content, its provider may process information under its own terms and privacy notice.
Cookie Settings
You can open Cookie Settings at any time through the site wide footer. You can accept or reject available optional categories and change an earlier selection. Browser and device controls may supplement Cookie Settings but may not control all non cookie technologies, server side processing, third party systems, or other devices and browsers.
Global Privacy Control and Other Preference Signals
Where required by applicable law and where the relevant processing occurs, Hollywood Mechanic treats a qualifying recognized Global Privacy Control or other recognized opt-out preference signal as a request to opt out of applicable sale, sharing, or targeted-advertising processing for the browser or device sending the signal. A browser or device signal does not disable necessary technologies; delete personal information; close an account; cancel a requested purchase or automotive service; prevent processing for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, transaction fulfillment, or repair records; or automatically apply to another browser, device, authenticated account, server side system, audience upload, API, or third party system.
Third Party Services and Provider Roles
A third-party provider may process information under its own privacy notice when you activate content, use its service, or complete a transaction with it. Hollywood Mechanic does not control an independent provider’s practices, although it reviews providers before use and seeks appropriate contractual controls. Independent developers, website creators, website operators, hosting providers, theme or plugin providers, payment providers, and other technology providers may supply tools or services to HWOOD MECH, INC. Unless a separate notice says otherwise, they do not sell Hollywood Mechanic’s products or services, control Hollywood Mechanic’s customer facing privacy or commercial policies, or assume Hollywood Mechanic’s obligations merely by providing technical support. Nothing in this section limits a right or remedy that applicable law provides based on a person’s own conduct.
Changes and Contact
Hollywood Mechanic may update this Cookie Policy when technology, providers, cookie practices, or legal requirements change. The updated version will show a revised effective date. For Cookie Settings assistance, privacy requests, complaints, appeals, or accommodations, use the Contact Us form.
