Cookie Policy

Last updated November 10, 2026

Cookies and browser storage are small records used by a website or an embedded provider. Your choices on youradsquad.com are managed by our self-hosted consent controls, not a third-party policy embed.

Necessary

The yas_consent cookie remembers choices, the policy revision and a random consent identifier for up to 180 days. The __Host-yas_session cookie is created only after secure customer sign-in, is protected from JavaScript and expires after 30 minutes. Sign-in links expire after 15 minutes and are single-use. Necessary request and security processing cannot be switched off while using the relevant feature.

Advertising opt-out preference

The necessary __Host-yas_ad_optout cookie stores only an expiry timestamp, not a visitor identifier. We use it to remember an advertising opt-out for 12 calendar months separately from the 180-day general preference cookie. During that period, expiry of the general cookie does not automatically prompt you to consent again. Advertising stays off until you choose otherwise in Cookie Settings; Global Privacy Control continues to keep it off. This safeguard is used for all visitors. Clearing website data, changing browsers or browser storage limits can remove saved preferences.

Homepage request session

Our Free Website + SEO form uses a necessary, secure session cookie named YasFreeWebsiteLive. It holds a random session identifier; request and security values are kept on our server to protect the form and prevent duplicate submissions. It is not advertising storage and does not require optional-cookie permission.

The form cookie lasts for the browser session, although browser session-restore features may restore it. Use your browser’s website-data settings to clear it. Clearing it may require reloading the form; it does not delete information you already submitted. To ask us to delete saved information, use Privacy Request. Do not share your session data.

Embedded tools

Our AI Business Brain signup and business-details forms load on their request pages in HighLevel’s no-tracking URL mode; they do not require optional-cookie permission. The Embedded tools choice controls automatic loading of other supported hosted tools. Without it, you can load a specific hosted form when you need it or follow its clearly labelled separate provider link. Our Free Website + SEO request uses this website’s own native form instead; it does not require Embedded tools permission. Our embedded HighLevel forms use a no-optional-metrics setting and receive your category choices. HighLevel may use storage needed to operate a requested form. A separate provider page is outside this website's cookie controls. Chat loads only when embedded tools, analytics and advertising are all permitted because its provider combines those functions.

Analytics

Only with analytics permission, Google Tag Manager loads Google Analytics to measure website use. Google may set cookies such as _ga and related measurement cookies. First-party session storage may retain permitted campaign parameters for up to 30 minutes. Our Google Analytics measurement excludes customer details and form contents and strips page query strings and fragments from page information we send to Google.

Microsoft Clarity heatmaps and recordings

Clarity loads only when you allow both Analytics and Advertising; it does not load when Global Privacy Control is enabled. It helps us understand clicks, scrolling and navigation through heatmaps, behavioral metrics and masked session recordings, so we can improve our website and marketing. Page text is masked and input boxes and dropdowns are masked by Clarity. Private, payment-success, thank-you and privacy-request pages are excluded, as are page visits containing URL query strings or fragments.

Clarity may set first-party cookies such as _clck, which remembers a pseudonymous visitor identifier and preferences, and _clsk, which connects page views into a session. Microsoft may also use third-party cookies such as CLID, ANONCHK, MR, MUID and SM for browser recognition, analytics and advertising-related functions. See the Clarity cookie documentation and Microsoft Privacy Statement. Withdrawal stops Clarity and clears its identifiable first-party cookies; browser settings control cookies on Microsoft's domains.

Advertising

Only with advertising permission, Microsoft Advertising, the Meta and OpenAI advertising pixels and permitted HighLevel campaign attribution may process advertising interactions or store associated identifiers. Advertising permission is separate from analytics permission. Global Privacy Control keeps this category off even when another choice would allow it. Microsoft may set _uetvid, _uetsid and _uetmsclkid cookies. Microsoft purchase tracking is sent only after Stripe confirms payment, with a server-side duplicate check. Meta may set _fbp and _fbc cookies. Consented session storage (yas_meta_brain_leads_v1) prevents repeated business-details conversion events. Advertising storage names can depend on the provider and campaign configuration.

Making and changing your choices

to Accept All, Reject Optional or choose individual categories. Optional categories begin off. You can withdraw permission at any time. The website reloads after withdrawal to stop already-running optional code and clears identifiable optional first-party storage where it can. Your browser controls storage on other domains, which this website cannot directly erase.

Consent receipts and communications

We record the choice version, categories, privacy signal and time against a pseudonymous consent identifier. We do not attach customer information to this cookie receipt. Cookie settings do not create or remove email or text permission. To change those choices or exercise privacy rights, use Privacy Request or call 517-249-0160.
