Every cookie Pasturly sets on its own sites is strictly necessary, and Pasturly’s own count of visits to farms’ websites uses none. This page lists them, and says what a farm’s website built on Pasturly sets.
1. Cookies on Pasturly’s own sites
Every cookie Pasturly sets on its own hosts is strictly necessary for signing in and keeping you signed in. Pasturly uses no analytics, advertising or third-party tracking cookies on app.pasturly.com or the owner console, except the Meta Pixel on the sign-up page and HeyCatch analytics on the sign-up page and in a farm’s admin, below, which run only if you accept them.
| Name | Where | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
__Host-pasturly_session | app.pasturly.com | Keeps farm staff signed in | 60 days, or until sign-out |
pasturly_driver | A driver’s page | Keeps a driver signed in to their route after their PIN | 16 hours |
pasturly_farm_started | app.pasturly.com/start, after using the emailed link that starts a farm | Says the farm was just made, so the next page can go on to it. Holds a random id, and no script can read it | 10 minutes at most; deleted when read |
pasturly_stall | The market page | Keeps a market hand signed in after their PIN | 16 hours |
pasturly_my_<farm> | A customer’s own page at app.pasturly.com/my/<farm> | Keeps a farm’s customer signed in | 60 days, or until sign-out |
__Host-pasturly_support | app.pasturly.com, during a support visit | Marks a Pasturly support visit as read-only | Ends with the browser session; the visit itself ends after the grant or at most 2 hours |
__Host-pasturly_console | console.pasturly.com | Keeps Pasturly staff signed in to the owner console | 12 hours at most; 30 minutes idle |
| Stripe’s cookies | Payment pages, and the Payments and card-reader screens (Stripe’s embedded components) | Fraud prevention and Stripe’s own sign-in for its embedded components | Stripe’s own periods |
The admin also keeps a few working notes in your browser’s storage, such as which orders you have ticked as packed on this device. They never leave your browser.
On the marketing website, pasturly.com, the Meta Pixel measures our ads on Facebook and Instagram, HeyCatch analytics records the pages visited and what is clicked, and Google Analytics counts visits to each page and where they came from. They load only if you accept the notice shown on your first visit, where Accept and Decline are the same size. The Pixel sets Meta’s cookies, such as _fbp (up to 90 days), and HeyCatch sets one of its own, whose name starts ph_ (up to a year), and keeps a few entries in your browser’s storage (names starting ph_, __ph_ or heycatch_). Google Analytics sets _ga and one starting _ga_ (up to two years), with its advertising features switched off. Google Analytics runs on pasturly.com only, never on app.pasturly.com. Your choice is kept in your browser’s storage (pasturly_consent_3), and you can answer again from Cookie choices at the foot of any page. The same notice is shown on the sign-up page, app.pasturly.com/start, and the Pixel runs there only if you accept it, to tell Meta that a farm signed up. It is not sent your name, email, farm or anything you type, and it runs on no other page of app.pasturly.com. The same notice covers HeyCatch there, on the sign-up page and in a farm’s admin, where it is linked to the signed-in person’s name and email but is never sent the words on the page. An answer you gave on pasturly.com is carried over when you press Start your farm, so you are not asked twice.
pasturly.com’s other cookies are described in the pasturly.com section of our Privacy Policy.
2. Cookies on farms’ websites
Each farm’s website on Pasturly is run for that farm, and the farm’s own cookie notice (on its site, or in its privacy notice) gives the details. In short:
- A farm’s website sets no cookie when you arrive. It sets one only when you do something that needs it.
ps_cartremembers what is in your cart. It is set only when you add something, and lasts 30 days.ps_accountkeeps you signed in to your account on that site. It is set only when you sign in, and lasts 60 days or until you sign out.- Stripe’s payment form sets its own cookies (for example
__stripe_midand__stripe_sid) on the payment and saved-card pages, to prevent fraud. - Visits are counted on Pasturly’s own server, without cookies. Only numbers by day and page are kept; nothing about you is.
- A farm may choose to use Google Analytics or the Meta Pixel. They load only if you accept the site’s notice, where Accept and Decline are the same size, and they set their own cookies (such as
_gaand_fbp). Your choice is kept in your browser’s storage (ps_consent), and you can answer again from Cookie choices at the foot of any page.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser’s settings. If you block a farm’s cart and account cookies, you will not be able to order from it online.
