Last updated: 2026-08-02

This Cookie Policy explains how Urban Farming SA (https://urbanfarmingsa.co.za) uses cookies and similar technologies. It forms part of our Privacy Policy and POPIA practices.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use browser local storage for some features (for example your shopping cart and cookie preference). Together these help the site function and, if you allow, help us understand usage.

2. Essential cookies and storage

These are required for the Platform to work and do not require optional consent:

• Authentication / session cookies (Supabase sign-in)
• Shopping cart data stored in local storage on your device
• Cookie preference key ufsa_cookie_consent so we remember your choice
• Security and load-balancing cookies provided by our hosting platform where applicable

3. Analytics (optional)

If you choose Accept analytics on the banner, we may use privacy-friendly usage analytics (for example Vercel Analytics) to understand page views and improve the marketplace. If you choose Essential only, we will not enable optional analytics cookies for that preference.

4. Managing preferences

• Use the cookie banner choices when it appears
• Clear site data / local storage for https://urbanfarmingsa.co.za (including ufsa_cookie_consent) to see the banner again
• Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies (essential features may stop working)

5. Third parties

Payment (PayFast) and messaging providers may set their own cookies or similar technologies when you use their services. Those are governed by their policies.
